User questions & answers

Question:	Are these reconditioned tools
Answer:	Requires 20v max battery by Dewalt. They make 1.5 Ah, 3.0Ah, and 4.0Ah batteries that will fit. Each is a step up in size and capacity.
Question:	So will it work on a BL
Answer:	No, this is a "bare tool" and doesn't include a battery.
Question:	Can a Collins coping foot be attached to this jig saw
Answer:	The DeWalt cordless jig saw is not brushless but it is by far and away the better tool. Rugged, substantially metal, lovely to hold,quick change blade, plenty of power, variable speed on trigger. Very pleased with my choice, definitely no regrets.
Question:	Does anyone know if this uses the same BL1815 battery as the Makita BDF452 drill
Answer:	Yes it will they are newer genrstion 20 max ( they are little better and show display how much battery is consumed ) beside that it will work with any 20 max

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you cut nails off of pallets
Answer:	Yes you can. Use a fine blade and put duc tape on both sides of the glass mark your line on the tape then cut
Question:	Will this be strong/accurate enough to cut the shape of a knife handled through a 2"x 10" x 1/2 inch think hard blog of jeans and fiberglass resin
Answer:	Yes. The harder you pull on the trigger the faster it goes.
Question:	does this come with blades, what is recommended
Answer:	Hi, Thank you for getting in touch! It is to inform you that it can cut nails but you may want to purchase appropriate blades for cutting metal. I hope this information addresses your needs. We look forward to welcoming you as our customer. Yours Sincerely, Sarfraz Customer Support Representative Tempus & Co.
Question:	What blade type/model can you use? Is there a specific blade made for this jigsaw
Answer:	The "orbital" refers to the circular motion of the blade. It moves up and down (as if on a y-axis) and also forward and backward (as if on the x-axis). The forward/backward motion is very slight compared to the up/down motion. It makes the cut more aggressive and a lot faster. Breaking down 2x4's goes very quickly. However, you can set the orbital motion from min to max, so this is very adjustable and this saw can still make very accurate cuts with the right blades.
