Right click and translate to english ! http://www.makita.co.jp/product/category/setudan/jr187drt/jr187drt.html That vertical Crank Design is really cool ! 2
ChrisK Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 Hey hey hey Makita!!!! Awesome!!!! Thanks kornomaniac!!!!!
kornomaniac Posted October 20, 2015 Author Report Posted October 20, 2015 You're welcome. The batteries look oversized for the tool. Which means the tool is rather compact and small i suppose? =)
DarynH Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 You're welcome. The batteries look oversized for the tool. Which means the tool is rather compact and small i suppose? =)What a tease haha these should rock since they REALLY took their time on them! 2
NERemodeling Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 Holy smokes, I feel like I just saw Bigfoot! The mythical Makita BL recip saw really does exist! Pretty cool that both will be BL. That x2 model should be killer! Thanks Korno. You da man . keep us posted if you hear or see anything else
DR99 Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 Nope time to hack Makita and delete the design My M18 fuel can't be beaten yet 2
Logan Posted October 20, 2015 Report Posted October 20, 2015 The battery does look big but hopefully that means a longer run time
JimboS1ice Posted October 21, 2015 Report Posted October 21, 2015 The battery does look big but hopefully that means a longer run time Looks like its 2 batteries for their 18x2 model. You can see the two release tabs.
torontotoolman Posted October 21, 2015 Report Posted October 21, 2015 The battery does look big but hopefully that means a longer run timeIf you look carefully thats 2 18v batterys on the recip saw prob why it looks smallSent from my SGH-I337M using Tapatalk
jeffmcmillan Posted October 21, 2015 Report Posted October 21, 2015 Looks to be about 18" long so same size as the ancient model.
kornomaniac Posted November 9, 2015 Author Report Posted November 9, 2015 It looks that the Makita recipe saws are at the stafda trade show currently going on so more info soon ^^
ChrisK Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet can't wait to get my hands on one of these!!!!! 1
jeffmcmillan Posted November 9, 2015 Report Posted November 9, 2015 I can't wait. Looks like a huge motor packed into those.
M80 Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 18V X2 LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Recipro Saw (XRJ06M/Z)What can your 18V Lithium-Ion battery do for you? How about delivering corded power and run time? Makita 18V X2 technology is powered by two 18V Lithium-Ion batteries, so users can unplug the cord with an 18V X2 rotary hammer, circular saw, chain saw, miter saw and more. The latest addition to the 18V X2 line-up is the XRJ06M/Z Recipro Saw, which has an efficient brushless motor and an industry-leading 1-1/4” stroke length for faster cutting. Users benefit with 36V power and run-time, but without leaving the 18V platform. (available Summer 2016) 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Recipro Saw (XRJ05M/Z)Makita is a leading innovator in the brushless category, and among the latest wave of new brushless tool releases is a new 18V brushless recipro saw, model XRJ05M. Like the 18V X2 recipro saw (model XRJ06M/Z), the XRJ05M/Z has a category-leading 1-1/4” stroke length. Also available in a non-brushless model (XRJ04M/Z). (available Spring 2016) http://www.makitatools.com/en-us/Modules/Company/PressReleases.aspx?ID=312761
kornomaniac Posted November 10, 2015 Author Report Posted November 10, 2015 And stafda had a setup where the single 18v BL model easily outpaced Makita Jr3050 corded 1100 watts model
NERemodeling Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 I got way way to excited seeing this picture and the press release. Man I am a huge dork 2
NERemodeling Posted November 10, 2015 Report Posted November 10, 2015 I seriously can not wait to get both of these. Spring seems sooo far away.. summer will be an eternity. I hope these things are well worth the wait! 2
Illini Posted November 14, 2015 Report Posted November 14, 2015 I can't wait to get my hands on one of these. Now I don't have to have Fuel sawzall envy anymore. Makita is just hitting it out of the park lately! 1
NERemodeling Posted November 14, 2015 Report Posted November 14, 2015 I can't wait to get my hands on one of these. Now I don't have to have Fuel sawzall envy anymore. Makita is just hitting it out of the park lately! The fuel sawzall was literally the only tool that made me want to buy milwaukee. Not anymore 1
kornomaniac Posted November 14, 2015 Author Report Posted November 14, 2015 With these additions tot makitas line up i think Makita takes the lead easily as most solid line up in general of all Brands 1
NERemodeling Posted November 15, 2015 Report Posted November 15, 2015 Without a doubt. They really have so many bases covered
