Makita DJV182Z 18V Li-Ion LXT Brushless Jigsaw - Batteries and Charger Not Included

Product Information

Even though the "ramp up" is adjustable, and most of the time it would autodetect when you really started cutting, but maybe 10%-20% of the time it would not detect the the material and wouldn't ramp up. This is adjustable, but while you're outside in the cold trying to work, that's not the best time to try to figure that out. The XVJ02Z features a brushless motor and has 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting for faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials. The variable speed control dial (800-3,500 SPM) enables users to match the speed to the application. In addition, the efficient BL™ Brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. And since there are no carbon brushes, the BL™ Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life.

The XVJ04Z has 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting for faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials. The variable speed control dial (0-3,000 SPM) enables users to match the speed to the application. In addition, the efficient brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. And since there are no carbon brushes, the brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life. Batteries & charger NOT included - Compatible with Makita BL1830B, BL1840B, BL1850B, BL1860B 18v Li-ion Batteries. Features

Additional info

The Makita DJV184Z 18v Li-ion Cordless Brushless Jigsaw offers a high cutting performance to an immaculate standard. Body Only To ensure accurate and clean cuts, the DJV184Z from Makita features an LED job light to illuminate the work area, which also can be used during standby mode. The die-cast aluminum base plate on the DJV184Z can be swivelled by 45° on both sides to reach the toughest of areas + has a tool less blade for easy changing of jigsaw blades. The Makita DJV182 is a bow, top handle cordless jigsaw with brushless motor that produces a high level of torque per weight. More torque means less power required so longer battery life less motor friction. With twin LED Joblights and a Blower function at the front end, your cutting line will remain illuminated and free of sawdust at all times.

Soft no-load mode creates a more accurate starting cut by slowing increasing the speed of the blade when it engages the material Makita is a leader in brushless motor technology, and the Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Jig Saw (model XVJ02Z, tool only, battery and charger sold separately) seamlessly combines precision and power with the efficiency of brushless. The XVJ02Z 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. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.Another great tool in the new CXT range works as described and has plenty of power. The charge indicators on the batteries are a welcome addition.“

The Makita 18V LXT® Brushless Jig Saw (model XVJ04Z, tool only, battery and charger sold separately) seamlessly combines precision and power with the efficiency of brushless in a more compact design. The XVJ04Z is engineered to deliver the power and performance of a corded jig saw, but 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. Soft no load" function automatically reduces the motor speed during idling to suppress the vibration of the machine body Rapid Optimum Charger has a built-in fan to cool the battery for faster, more efficient charging (battery and charger sold separately) The electronically-controlled BL™ Brushless Motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and SPM to the changing demands of the applicationThe motor is brushless, which keeps the size and weight down. This also gives you more runtime from any 18V LXT battery you use, and makes the jigsaw very durable. The base plate can be angled left or right to 45º. Soft-start is a real bonus as it provides a greater level of control when you’re starting the cut. The motor gives you variable speed up to 3,500spm and a stroke length of 26mm. Therefore translating into cuts up to 135mm into wood and 10mm into steel. Ergonomically rubberised handle provides comfortable gripping and more control while minimising hand fatigue and pain Size is kept compact thanks to the brushless motor. Even though it’s running on lower powered batteries, you’ll get great runtime as a result. Soft-start is also present which helps with control when you start a cut. The motor will give you up to 3000spm via the variable speed trigger. Stroke length is a respectable 23mm which translates into cuts up to 90mm in wood and 10mm in mild steel. Tool-free blade change, LED light, constant speed control and the ability to bevel left and right to 45º are also present. Soft no load" function automatically reduces the motor speed during idling to suppress the vibration of the machine body.
