Product Description
This Makita jig saw is a must - have for any DIY enthusiast or professional. Included with the tool is a Jig Saw Blade, T Shank, Hcs, 4 - 1/8' X 9TPI (792529 - 7 - 1). The Makita - built brushless motor, along with 3 orbital settings and straight cutting, provides faster and more precise cuts on various materials. The variable 6 - speed control dial (800 - 3,500 SPM) allows you to adjust the speed according to the task at hand. The efficient BL™ Brushless motor is electronically controlled, optimizing battery energy use and offering up to 50% longer run - time per charge. By eliminating carbon brushes, the BL™ motor runs cooler and more efficiently, ensuring a longer lifespan. It also adapts torque and SPM to the changing needs of the job. The 'tool - less' blade change system makes blade installation and removal quick, boosting productivity. The large 2 - finger variable speed trigger with a lock - on button adds convenience. The heavy - gauge aluminum base guarantees smooth and accurate cutting and enhanced durability. Dual L.E.D. lights brighten up the work area. Weighing only 5.8 lbs. with the battery (battery not included), it reduces operator fatigue. Its compact and ergonomic design, just 10 - 1/2' long, makes it easy to handle. The rubberized soft grip handle offers extra comfort during work. A built - in dust blower clears the cutting line for better accuracy. It comes with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to prevent overloading, over - discharging, and over - heating. The Rapid Optimum Charger (battery and charger sold separately) communicates with the battery's built - in chip, controlling current, voltage, and temperature to optimize battery life. It also has a built - in fan for faster and more efficient charging. Makita technology provides a category - leading charge time, so the battery spends more time working and less time charging. It's compatible with Makita 18V Lithium - Ion batteries with a Star symbol (battery sold separately).
Using this Makita jig saw is a breeze. First, make sure you have a compatible 18V Lithium - Ion battery with a Star symbol (battery sold separately). Insert the battery into the tool. To change the blade, use the 'tool - less' blade change system for quick installation and removal. Adjust the speed using the variable 6 - speed control dial according to the material you're cutting. For different cutting effects, you can select from 3 orbital settings or straight cutting. When using the tool, hold it firmly by the rubberized soft grip handle. The large 2 - finger variable speed trigger with a lock - on button gives you more control. The dual L.E.D. lights will help you see the work area clearly, and the built - in dust blower will keep the cutting line visible. Be careful not to overload the tool. Thanks to the Star Protection Computer Controls™, it's protected against overloading, over - discharging, and over - heating, but it's still important to use it within its capacity. After use, remove the battery and store it in a cool, dry place. Clean the saw regularly to keep it in good condition. Wipe off any dust or debris from the body and the blade. If you're not using the saw for a long time, it's a good idea to charge the battery every few months to maintain its health. And always remember, the Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately) will charge the battery faster and optimize its life.
