Saws: types, purpose and selection tipsA brief overview of different types of saws and sawing machines with tips on choosing the right tools

Small Corded Reciprocating Saw

While most corded reciprocating saws are designed for two-handed use, the AEG US 400 XE model is initially designed for comfortable one-handed operation. The tool is lightweight (only 1.7 kg) and well-balanced, allowing it to be held with one hand while the other can fix the workpiece: a branch, board, or pipe, if necessary. Its compact size allows for effective work in confined spaces, such as dense tree crowns or hard-to-reach areas. The device's power is 400 W, which is sufficient for cutting medium-thickness branches as well as plastic and thin-walled metal pipes.

Advantages and Disadvantages

The tool has several features that are important to consider when choosing for gardening or construction tasks. Its advantages include a bright built-in light ensuring good visibility of the working area, as well as a large and sensitive start button designed for two-finger operation. By adjusting the pressure, the cutting speed can be changed, with a stroke rate of up to 3500 strokes per minute. The quick-release chuck allows for the use of blades with L-shaped shanks from different manufacturers and rapid tool changes. The set includes three blades for various tasks, as well as a convenient textile storage and carrying bag.

The drawbacks include a short stroke length. Due to the 13 mm stroke amplitude, the cut is not cleared well of sawdust, so when working with wood, the user has to additionally perform back-and-forth movements. The lack of a lock-on button is also a concern as there’s a risk of accidental start-up during preparation for work. Additionally, there is no provision for locking the trigger in a pressed position, which reduces convenience during prolonged use.

Reciprocating Saw for Installation and Dismantling Work

The AEG US 400 XE model is not intended for cutting thick logs or preparing firewood. However, it's excellent for installation and dismantling work. This tool will be especially useful to builders, plumbers, and installers: it's convenient for cutting pipes and metal profiles, creating holes in plywood or drywall, as well as neatly removing protruding parts of structures and performing other precise tasks.
