Makita DJV186 18v LXT Cordless Jigsaw

The Makita DJV186 is a cordless jigsaw built for precision cutting across a wide range of materials. Part of the popular 18v LXT system, this D-handle jigsaw combines compact dimensions with professional features, making it well-suited for carpenters, joiners, kitchen fitters and general contractors who need reliable cutting performance on site or in the workshop.

Featuring three orbital cutting modes plus a setting optimised for straight cuts, the DJV186 gives you the control needed for both aggressive material removal and fine finish work. The variable speed trigger allows intuitive speed adjustment throughout each cut, whilst the electric brake stops the blade quickly for improved safety and productivity. At just 1.6kg without battery, the slim body design with rubberised grip reduces operator fatigue during extended use and provides excellent visibility of the cutting line.

The adjustable base plate can be bevelled up to 45° for angled cuts, with a hex key used to make precise adjustments. A slot for fitting a rip guide is included for accurate straight cuts. The tool accepts all standard T-shank jigsaw blades, making it versatile enough for cutting wood up to 65mm thick and steel up to 6mm when fitted with appropriate blades.
