12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Top Handle Jig Saw; Tool Only

Features and Benefits:Makita-built brushless motor and 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting deliver faster and more accurate cuts in a variety of materials;Variable 5-speed control dial (800-3;000 SPM) enables user to match the speed to the application;Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for better accuracy;No-load speed reduction feature automatically reduces SPM for more accurate cutting starts;Efficient BL™ Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge;The BL™ Brushless Motor eliminates carbon brushes; enabling the BL™ Motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life;The electronically-controlled BL™ Brushless Motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and SPM to the changing demands of the application;""Tool-less"" blade change system allows for faster blade installation and removal for increased productivity;Large 2-finger variable speed trigger for added convenience with lock-on button;Tilting base for bevel cuts from 0° - 45°;The Makita 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Top Handle Jig Saw (VJ06Z; tool only; batteries and charger sold separately) delivers fast and efficient cutting; with a compact design that�s engineered for ease-of-use and maneuverability. The VJ06Z features a top handle design and is ideal for woodworkers; cabinet makers; remodelers; and general contractors. Makita 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries provide improved balance and ergonomics over pod-style batteries; and for convenience the batteries include an on-board L.E.D. charge level indicator (batteries sold separately). The VJ06Z has a compact and ergonomic design with less weight (only 4.1 lbs. with 12V max CXT® 2.0Ah battery; sold separately). The efficient Makita-built brushless motor is engineered for longer run time; increased power and speed; and longer tool life. The variable 5-speed control dial (800-3;000 RPM) enables the user to match the speed to the application; and the 3 orbital settings plus straight cutting provide added versatility. The soft start suppresses start-up reaction for better accuracy; and the no-load speed reduction feature automatically reduces SPM for more accurate cutting starts. Convenience features include “tool-less” blade changes; large 2-finger variable speed trigger with lock-on button; dual L.E.D. lights; and a built-in dust blower to clear the line of cut. For longer run time; all 12V max CXT® cordless tools are also compatible with the 12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion 4.0Ah battery (BL1041B; sold separately). 12V max CXT® lithium-Ion batteries are engineered with a Battery Protection Circuit that protects against overloading; over-discharging and over-heating. It�s part of the expanding 12V max CXT® series; combining performance with superior ergonomics in a compact size.
