The Makita 4329K jig saw combines a 3.9 amp motor with a variable-speed dial control (500-3,100 SPM) to help optimize cutting. The saw provides a 11/16-inch stroke and three orbital cut settings as well as standard straight cutting. It has a compact design measuring 8 7/8 inches long and weighs 4.2 pounds. The limit of cutting wood is 2 9/16-inches deep. The die-cast aluminum base adjusts up to 45 degrees right or left and positive stop at 90 degrees, the die-cast aluminum base dampens sound and helps in reduce vibration. An ergonomically designed rubberized grip offers a larger trigger with a lock-on button.
The lock can be set with the thumb while holding the saw with your right hand. The counterweight balancing system is designed for reduced vibration and causes less fatigue. Very little vibration gets transmitted through to your hands or the piece you are cutting. The saw operates much more quietly than other jig saws, ensuing more precise cuts.

The blade locking system is easy to use, locks tight and square.
