The two makers put these figures in different terms, so the rows cannot be read as a match or a difference from these pages.

  • Blade diameter: XSL08Z: 305 mm (12"). 2739-20: 12 in.

  • Weight: XSL08Z: 30.2 - 30.8 kg (66.5 - 67.8 lbs). 2739-20: 47.6 lb.

Figures cited for one of the two: only Makita U.S.A.'s cited pages give bevel capacity, miter capacity, speed and dimensions; only Milwaukee Tool's cited pages give motor, crosscut capacity and included. Ask the other maker before treating the XSL08Z and 2739-20 as equal on those points.
