Questions & Answers

Having a problem choosing cordless from corded, can any one help me pick, does the corded have more power?

Help
Asked by: Jezzabel
I have found the cordless tools have lower torque than the corded and when the battery drains it drops off significantly. I use the corded version always. Nothing is worse then to have a tool die in the middle of the job.

Do it come with additional different cutting tools to fit head

Asked by: Obch613
Yes, you can make this into a reciprocating saw (sawzall) or a jigsaw. I think there's 1 or 2 more extra attachments for it. The tool works great/

Can this tool cut carpeting into smaller 3 foot strips for disposal?
Asked by: RickT
Nope. Your basic utility knife is the best for carpet. This tool only works on hard items. If it moves with the blade then there is not cutting going on.

4 Amp Corded JobMax Multi-Tool with Tool-Free Head is rated 4.4 out of 5 by 527.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from I bought this tool so I could cut a deck board out of the middle of my deck because it was rotted... I bought this tool so I could cut a deck board out of the middle of my deck because it was rotted and a danger to walk on. That tool did an amazing job and I was able to cut the board out without damaging the existing boards that were next to it. I love the tool. I do have to say that the employee that I asked for assistance to find this tool and she was trying to talk me into another tool and stated that this tool with the plunger blade would not cut into the board and would only slide across the top of the board. I tried to explain that a jig saw would not work because it would strick the stringer board that the deck board was fixed to. She reluctantly sold me the tool which surprised me. A male employee that followed us did not seem to have much more advise so I had to use my own drive to buy this tool. Glad I did. I think that employees should be trained on your products so they can give good advise to those of us that are purchasing them and are not sure of their abilities.

I purchased this because my Ryobi Battery oscillating saw was a bit slow for the job I had. After about 20 minutes of use I noticed that some of the packing grease in the head was making its way out onto the surface of the tool, shortly after the tool stopped working although the motor kept spinning. Upon investigation, I found that the screws holding the head together had backed off. The loose head prevented power transmission, and liberated the bearing grease seals. After cleaning out the fragmented grease seals, I repacked the housing and tightened down the screws after cleaning an thread locking the female screw holes. While tightening down 2 of the 5 screw holes snapped in half, without applying excessive force. Maybe the tool I had had a bad casting, you may be luckier. All that being said, Home Depot made the return process completely painless. I ended up using the refund to buy a Makita, which has worked perfectly. It should also be noted that my Ryobi battery oscillating saw has been working flawlessly for years, it just isn't as powerful as the corded varieties.

I've been wanting one for years and until this emergency project came up I couldn't justify the purchase. I knew I wanted a corded drill, one that would accept all the blades out there and came at a reasonable cost. As a female one of the other important aspects of all the power tools I buy is can I hold it. All too often the tool is too heavy or I just can't grip the thing; and I don't have small dainty hands! I tried every oscillating tool in the line up. This was the only tool that felt balanced, I could easily hold for a long duration project and wasn't too heavy. I went into Home depot already knowing this was my chosen tool based on reviews, previous ownership of the brand and its versatility. What sold the tool was the fit. Oh and the grout job, took care of the removal like butter.

JobMax 4 Amp Multi-Tool with Tool-Free Head Since I already owned all of the JobMax heads for my 12-volt Ridgid Multi-Tool, this seemed like a no-brainer purchase for a rather annoying task of multiple cuts in a double-stud wall. The portability of the 12-volt is great, and I was tempted just to grab the 18-volt, but instead I opted for this AC powered tool with the THRUCOOL technology. It performed as expected-- although I question the THRUCOOL technology as it seems to transfer most of the heat to my hands. That is not a show-stopper as under a load all of these tools will heat up and I was not really expecting anything different. I ended up using about three of the heads for the project and all performed well. This a more powerful tool than the 12-volt tool (obviously) and will likely be used more than the 12-volt when I have AC available. The grip is completely different between the 12-volt and AC tools-- the AC in some ways affording more leverage. I had no issue registering for the lifetime warranty.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I had to replace my original tool, R2850 series B,... I had to replace my original tool, R2850 series B, because the cord broke right at the base of the tool. I made two attempts to repair the cord, the third time it broke I bought the new, improved Job Max. Evidently Rigid has been listening to their customers because everything that the old tool needed was put into the design of the new unit. The power cord is more supple and the strain relief section of the cord is longer and softer, maybe these two things together will keep the cord from breaking where they meet. The forward/reverse switch is mounted up front as a push-push switch you hit with your finger from both sides. The motor is beefier, more power and larger diameter (more torque?). The oscillating head it comes with is redesigned for quick change of blades. Thanks Rigid!I have just about every head made for this tool and it sure makes life easier to have several of them set up for a particular job and just have one power unit, cutting the cord mess and floor clutter down.

I bought this for its sanding capabilities for a kitchen cabinet refinish project. It mostly does a good job for that, however the supplied sanding head does not do a great job for tight areas. I have owned it for one week. Cons: - It has a variable speed trigger which I actually like. Problem is that it does not allow user to lock trigger in a constant on position. - Home Depot tool department employees gave me misinformation. One guy told me that the trigger could be locked by pressing a switch on the tool. That switch is a direction reversing switch, not a lock. Another employee told me that the sanding head flexes for sanding in tight spots however, that is not true. I have not used the tool for any other projects but, in general it seems to be a decent tool.
