Makita 18 Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Recipro Saw (Tool Only)

The Makita 18 Volt LXT? Lithium-Ion cordless compact recipro saw tool is specially designed for a contractor for more faster， efficient cutting along with the convenience of tool-less blade change and a rapid charge time. This versatile cutting solution has a Makita built variable 2-speed brushless motor to deliver 0 to 2300 SPM (low) and 0 to 3000 SPM (high) for rapid cutting operation. This powerful brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge. Tool with 1-1/4 Inch stroke length， features refined crank mechanism design to minimize blade deflection and vibration. Tool is jam packed with features like large two-finger variable speed trigger for added convenience and reinforced fixed shoe for longer endurance. It has electric brake for increasing productivity. Recipro saw has Makita's Extreme Protection Technology (XPT?)， a protective seal inside the tool. This technology increases tool life for operation in harsh conditions. The Star Protection Computer Controls? technology allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions while in use to safeguard against over-loading， over-discharging and over-heating. Tool has an LED light to illuminate the line of cut and tool-less blade change for faster blade installation/removal. It works well with an 18 Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style battery with a Star symbol.
