Accepted Answer

Key highlights include a brushless motor for longer runtime, a 12V system, a variable speed trigger for control, a quick blade clamp for fast blade changes, and a fuel gauge to monitor battery status. It is sold as a bare tool, so battery and charger are not included.

Question 3

Is this tool a battery-powered tool only, or do I get a battery with it?

Operate with the blade tracking correctly and use the adjustable trigger for controlled cutting. Wear eye protection and gloves, keep hands away from the blade, and consider using a lanyard if you’re working at height or in awkward positions. The compact design helps with maneuverability in tight spaces.

Question 6
