## Description

Makita is a leader in Brushless motor technology, and the Makita 18V 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. 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. 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 L.E.D. Lights illuminate the work area. It weighs only 5.5 lbs. With battery (sold separately).

Review: Excellent jigsaw, would buy again - Great jigsaw. Have used it now to build 2 decks, it cuts 5/4 decking and 2x PT material very well, nice and square. The slow start thing takes a bit to get used to, but I do like it now. My only minor complaint is the clear plastic thing on the shoe plate that goes around the blade... ya I don't know what it's there for but it instantly gets coated with dust and then you can't see. Fortunately it's really easy to remove and throw away. I also really wish this had a dust blower but I guess Makita doesn't do that, not sure why.
Review: Precise, no vibration, once ya get used to the barrel grip it's a great jigsaw! - Easy to use when you get used to the grip. On/off is the usual makita two button affair that takes gettin used to if you don't have other makita tools that feature it. My fave jigsaw now, can be very precise. Includes a dust collection tube if that's your jam. Buy it.
