Makita, DJV182Z, 18 V, Brushless Cordless Jigsaw

The Makita DJV182Z 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Jigsaw, Tool Only is designed for straight, curved, and bevel cuts in wood, aluminium, and non-alloyed steel. It delivers a maximum cutting depth of 135 mm in wood, 20 mm in aluminium, and 10 mm in steel. Powered by an 18V Li-ion battery, this jigsaw operates on the Makita 18V LXT battery platform. A 26 mm stroke length combined with a brushless motor provides consistent cutting performance across the supported materials. As a body-only package, the battery and charger are not included and must be purchased separately.

Weighing 2,600 g with a 266 mm overall length, the tool features a soft-grip ergonomic handle for controlled handling. Bevel adjustment allows for angled cuts up to 45 degrees. A three-stage orbital action adapts the cutting motion for either faster material removal or smoother finishes. Integrated usability features include a built-in LED light to illuminate the cut line and a dust blower to clear debris from the path. A dust extraction port accommodates a compatible vacuum to maintain workshop cleanliness. Operational controls consist of soft start, adjustable speed, a safety switch, and a quick-stop function.

• Adjustable no-load stroke rate of 800 to 3,500 spm: matches blade speed to material thickness for controlled cutting.
• Vibration level of 7 m/s² in wood and 3.5 m/s² in steel: minimises hand fatigue during prolonged use.
• Sound pressure level of 89 dB and sound power level of 97 dB: indicates the need for hearing protection during operation.
• Tool-free blade change system: allows quick blade swaps without additional hardware.
• Integrated overload protection: prevents motor damage under heavy cutting loads.
