User questions & answers

Question:	Will this cut conduit? Electricians please answer
Answer:	With the right blade and a good charge. I use this for quick, small jobs where a chord becomes a pain. I use a chorded one for jobs that take a long periods of time. It may be adequate.
Question:	Is it powerful enough to cut by 2 x 4s without taking forever
Answer:	Yes
Question:	replacing an older 18v Dewalt saw, wondering if anyone might know what the noise differential between these two is. Or any similar saw. Dewalt is loud
Answer:	im guessing the old dewalt has a brushed motor. This is brushless and runs a whole lot quieter, though the amount of decibels from actually cutting something would be the same.
Question:	Can you use 5amph batteries with it
Answer:	Yes, you can use the 18V 5.0 ah batteries with this tool. You can use, 4, 5 and 6 amp 18V.

User questions & answers

Question:	I have 2 18v 2.0ah batteries. will they work with this or do i need 2 5.0ah
Answer:	They should work but your usage time will be much less obviously. I often use smaller batteries to lighten the tool while I work. Nail Guns, drills. etc..
Question:	Does Makilta make a cordless sawsall with orbital action
Answer:	I think you will find that the 1-1/4" blade stroke more than compensates for any type of orbital action you are wanting. Depending on the blade and the number of teeth, this tool can be very aggressive as well as powerful.
Question:	Does this saw have substantially more power than the single battery model, or do you just gain in runtime
Answer:	ProToolReview did an ideal comparison of the heavy duty cordless recipro saws recently (including the 36V Makita), and then shortly after did the same tests with the 18V Makita. The 36V won the original competition. Here's how the 18V compared: - "Using the same tests and identical blades from our shootout, the saw had to cut as fast as it could through 2 x12 pressure treated pine embedded with five 16D nails. It then had to cut through five EMT pipes, two of which were 1 inch in diameter and three which were 3/4 inch in diameter. We used 10-pound weights to ensure the downforce was the same for each saw." - "When cutting through nail embedded wood, the Makita XRJ05 averaged 15.11 seconds. Those results would have been good enough for third place overall and were about 2.5 seconds behind its big brother." - "Metal cutting was a bit quicker with an average of 13.16 seconds to cut through our EMT. That would’ve put it in fourth place behind Makita 18V X2 (9.50 seconds), DeWalt FlexVolt (10.65 seconds), and Milwaukee M18 Fuel with One-Key (10.90 seconds)." https://www.protoolreviews.com/tools/power/cordless/saws-cordless/makita-xrj05-18v-lxt-recipro-saw-review/27325/
Question:	Anyone know how to get a case for one of these? A plastic moulded one, not one of those useless bags where everything gets banged up
Answer:	Don't know that you will get a molded case for this. or any other tool now. Seems like all the major tool companies have all gone to the bags except Festool. I too dislike the bags just as everyone else. Makita, Bosch, Milwaukee, Porter Cable all have those useless bags for housing their tools.

The JR3070CT is equipped with Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT), an exclusive counterbalance system that reduces vibration. The result is faster, more efficient cutting and less vibration in the tool -- and the tool user. The JR3070CT with AVT is powered by a 15 AMP motor with electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load. The JR3070CT has a long 1-1/4-inch stroke for faster cutting with 0-2,800 strokes per minute (SPM) and a variable speed dial with six different preset speeds to match the speed of the saw to the application. The unique clutch system extends the tool life by protecting the gears should the blade bind. It also has orbital action with four settings to choose from for high speed cutting. More Work, Less Vibration. The JR3070CT is equipped with AVT, Makita's exclusive counterbalance system that reduces vibration for more efficient cutting power. The JR3070CT has a durable body design that keeps dust and debris away from the motor, with rubber and felt seals to keep dust and water out for a longer tool life. The JR3070CT weighs just 9.7 pounds, with "tool-less" blade change and five-position shoe adjustment. Versatile Design for a Range of Applications. The JR3070CT is a versatile and powerful reciprocating saw engineered for demolition, metal cutting, wood cutting, drywall and plaster, plastics and remodeling. It's ideal for builders, roofers, metal fabricators, remodelers, and general contractors seeking a best-in-class industrial quality reciprocating saw. The JR3070CT is just another example of Makita's commitment to innovative technology and best-in-class engineering. About Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). Makita has adapted the science of earthquake engineering into power tools with Makita's Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). AVT is an exclusive innovative counterbalance design that provides the professional a power tool solution with up to three-times less vibration, less noise and more efficient power than the competition. Seismic research has developed this damping science to absorb shocks and protect buildings from the devastation of earthquake vibrations. AVT dynamic damping involves reciprocating engineering where a mechanical damper, effectively a counter balance weight, provides an equal and opposite anti-vibration force that puts an equal mass directly opposite the point at which the striker bolt delivers the impact joules to the breaker steel, carbide bit or recipro saw blade.

User questions & answers

Question:	Which is better the 3.0 or the
Answer:	The 3.0ah batteries last longer. The 2.0ah are lighter. Both are good depends on your needs. I have the 2.0 set for around the house and use the 5.0 ah at work.
Question:	Can these tools also use Makita's 3 & 5 Amp hour batteries
Answer:	It uses the 3.0a no problem, haven’t tried the 5.0a... but the way makita has been making their products lately has allowed large batteries on all products, but not typically the other way (smaller batteries on big tools). 5.0a battery will work on the saw, but will be super bulky and heavy on the drivers.
Question:	Is the chuck supposed to be clicking once it is all the way tight? If I hold the chuck when its tight while the trigger is pulled it clicks
Answer:	If you have the clutch set to a low number then it is probably the clutch releasing as designed to limit the torque. If it happens on high/drill clutch setting then there is a problem with the gearbox. Careful when testing that you don’t damage your hand though. My gearbox failed (on the high speed setting) after six months of heavy use. Makita fixed it under warranty quickly.
Question:	The review below says an extra battery is included. Does that mean I'll recieve a total of 3 batteries if I order
Answer:	Just two
