Makita JR001GZ 40 V Max Recipro saw

The JR001G is a reciprocating saw suitable for daily intensive use. The saw is similar in cutting speed to the DJR360, but due to the use of 1 battery, the JR001G is slightly lighter in weight. Also, this reciprocating saw features two electric speeds. The low speed is best suited for cutting metals and the high speed for cutting wood. Also, the JR001G comes standard with a hook for hanging the machine from a scaffold tube, for example. The stop on the machine can be moved quickly, which is useful when using a progressive saw blade, for example. When thick wood needs to be cut quickly with the coarser teeth, the stop must be moved forward. For cutting with the finer teeth for sheet material, for example, it is best to place the stop completely to the rear.The saw blade can be changed on the JR001G from the outside. By turning the lever, the saw blade pops out and the new saw blade can be inserted immediately, which is automatically clamped.
