Makita 2-Speed Recipro Saw, 18V LXT

Makita, a pioneer in brushless motor technology and battery innovation, combines both in the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Recipro Saw (XRJ05). It has an electronically-controlled BL™ Brushless motor that matches torque and RPM to the application. The XRJ05 is equipped with efficiency features for faster cutting. The long 1-1/4” stroke length increases cutting efficiency, and the refined crank mechanism design minimizes blade deflection and reduces vibration. Convenience features include an L.E.D. light to illuminate the line of cut, a retractable tool hook, and “tool-less” blade change for faster blade installation and removal.

There are 2 feature models of the XRJ05 Recipro Saw. The choice is with or without two batteries and rapid charger. Options for the Makita XRJ05 are:

  1. XRJ05Z: Tool only
  2. XRJ05T: Tool, (2) 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries, rapid charger, and tool case

It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. 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.

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.
