Description
Powerful brushless cordless reciprocating saw with vibration reduction system
The 20V Max SKIL 3480 is a brushless cordless reciprocating saw and part of the SKIL XP Pro Series. These tools deliver exceptional performance for serious projects, developed for professionals who make smart choices. Like all other SKIL 20V Max cordless tools, this model is powered by the industry-leading, advanced PWRCORE 20™ battery and charger technology. Brushless SKIL 3480 is the ideal tool for tough sawing applications, such as demolition cutting, shortening beams and tree trimming. With its large 29 mm stroke length, it has a very high sawing performance and the orbital action switch enables even faster cutting if needed. The advanced double counterweight construction (VRS) makes sure that, despite its high performance, the vibration is very low. The digital brushless motor delivers more power, more efficiency and a 10x longer lifetime than a comparable brushed motor. Good visibility of your work is assured thanks to the LED light. Changing blades has never been easier thanks to the Clic system, which doesnt require any special tools or keys. For your convenience, the design is suited for convenient hanging of the tool. Furthermore, the adjustable foot position allows you to use the blade more efficiently. Last but not least, the softgrip on the tool ensures convenient working.
