Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Barrel Grip Jig Saw (Tool-Only) #XVJ01Z

OVERVIEW

Makita is a leader in brushless motor technology and the Makita 18-Volt LXT lithium-ion Brushless Cordless Barrel Grip Jig Saw (model XVJ01Z, tool only, battery and charger sold separately) seamlessly combines precision and power with the efficiency of brushless. The XVJ01Z is engineered to deliver the power and performance of a corded jig saw without the hassles of a cord. It is ideal for professional woodworkers, cabinetry makers, specialized residential construction workers and any pro-contractor seeking a best-in-class cordless jig saw. The XVJ01Z features an ergonomically designed barrel grip, which is closer to the work surface for more precise cut. The brushless motor is engineered for efficiency, with a variable speed control dial (800-3,500 SPM) that enables users to match the speed to the application. Added features include 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting for faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials. Convenience features include a tool-less blade change system that allows for faster blade installation and removal and a large 2-finger variable speed trigger with lock-on button. The heavy-gauge aluminum base is engineered for smooth, accurate cutting and added durability and the dual LED lights illuminate the work area. It weighs only 5.5 lbs. with battery (sold separately).
