What it is
The DeWalt DCS312N-XJ compact 12V reciprocating saw is offered as a bare unit, ideal for those who already own DeWalt batteries. Weighing 1.38 kg and measuring 122 mm in height by 308 mm in length, it is designed for one-handed cutting in tight spaces. It reaches a no-load speed of 0-2800 rpm, with a 16 mm stroke, and offers a cutting capacity of up to 90 mm in timber and PVC and 40 mm in steel sections and pipes. The stated power is 1400 W, with a 12 V battery. The vibration emission value when cutting panels is 5.7 m/s² (uncertainty K 1.6 m/s²).
Jigsaws and reciprocating saws (sabre saws) are reciprocating-blade power tools for cutting wood, metal and plastic and for demolition work.
What it is for
Used for light demolition, chasing and localised removal, for cutting solid wood, panels and battens, on the bench or on site and for cutting metal sections, sheet and tube.
How to use it
Fit the blade suited to the material in the quick-release holder and clamp the workpiece. With the reciprocating saw, rest the shoe against the workpiece before starting and hold the machine with both hands; with the jigsaw, rest the base plate on the workpiece and follow the line without forcing. Before cutting into walls or floors, make sure there are no cables or pipes.
