A jigsaw should be in every home. With it, you can not only cut wood, metal or plastic, but also create real works of art. With a manual jigsaw, you can cut openwork lace on any wooden parts, but the work is long and tiring. In 1946, the first
electric jigsaw appeared. A certain Albert Kaufmann, an engineer by training, attached a blade to a sewing machine. Now work has become much faster. Modern great-grandchildren of a hybrid of a sewing machine and a saw have gone far ahead in their technical characteristics. But the principle of operation has remained the same: the blade is attached only on one side, and because of this it is somewhat rougher. It is no longer possible to make such small coils as a manual jigsaw, but the work with such a tool is much faster and the effort is much less. Today we will talk about the Makita jigsaw, or rather, about two models of this brand. Professional, and one that is suitable for a home craftsman.
Jigsaw "Makita 4329K"
It is a compact and reliable tool. It is very convenient to use. On the staple handle are rubber inserts that make the grip of the tool very reliable and confident. On the side of the handle is a large trigger with a button to fix the position of inclusion. Its power is 450 watts with a range from 500 to 3100 beats per minute. It adapts to any material thanks to six speeds. The Makita 4329K jigsaw has an adjustable working angle with an amplitude of 45 degrees on both sides. The maximum cut depth in a tree is 65 millimeters, and in steel - 8 millimeters. For more accurate and accurate work with wood, there are three built-in modes of the swingarm of the blade. The jig saw “Makita 4329K” was developed taking into account the balancing system with a counterweight. Thanks to this, he boasts a reduced vibration coefficient by 40%. The chips are ejected through the injector, which is located at the rear of the housing. A vacuum cleaner can be connected to the ejection window, then the working room will remain clean.
