Product description

This WORX 20V 8-inch Pole Saw comes with the Chainsaw Head Attachment, so you can trim, limb, prune and more, easier than ever before. Powerful but lightweight, it’s only 8.8 lbs with the battery attached, so you can wield it without much stress on your hands, arms, and back, and still get a lot done on a single charge. And the innovative automatic, tool-less chain-tightening and lubrication systems make this saw low maintenance, so you can spend your time actually getting the chore done. This model comes with: Chainsaw head, 20V 2.0Ah Power Share battery, 2-amp charger, pole attachment, bar & chain sheath. Plus, this pole is compatible with our Hedge Trimmer Head Attachment (model WA0308, sold separately), if you want to add that functionality later on. Here are the specs: The 8” bar means you can trim limbs up to 8” in diameter, or chop up fallen limbs that are up to 14” in diameter. The chain runs at a smooth 16 ft/s, with a 3/8” pitch. The oil tank has a 2.8 oz capacity. And the battery takes an hour to recharge with the included charger, so you can get back out there quickly. The 20V 8” Pole Saw is part of the WORX Power Share family, which means the battery that comes with this tool is interchangeable with every other tool on the platform. That’s an enormous arsenal of building, DIY, and Lawn & Garden tools to chose from so you can tackle any job in a way that works for you.

Rotating Handle

Thanks to the telescoping shaft you can leave the ladder in the garage and still reach the tops of tall shrubs and tree branches.

3-Position Adjustable Chainsaw Head

For getting at tough to reach branches, you have 3 different angles of attack. That prevents you from having to take awkward angles on the ground.

Compact & Lightweight

At only 8 lbs, you can hold this pole saw up high for long stretches without getting tired, and the inline motor gives this tool excellent balance while it’s up there.

Tool-less, Adjustable & Telescopic Pole Attachment

With up to 13-feet of reach, you can trim branches up high before they become a problem, or easily scale the pole down to a shorter length.

Automatic Chain-Lubrication System

Your saw will always spin at peak efficiency over the course of its lifetime thanks to the tool-free auto-lubrication system. And the oil-level indicator lets you know when to refill.

Take it Easy on Your Wrists

The rear handle rotates for quick vertical or horizontal cutting. This way, you don’t have to contort your whole body to cut a branch one way, then twist back to cut another branch facing in the opposite direction. Just turn the handle

Leave the Ladder in the Garage

The telescopic, adjustable shaft is the safer way to trim branches because it keeps you off the ladder. That gives you and your family peace of mind. Plus, the shaft easily disassembles which makes it easy to store.

Product description

The 20V 2-in-1 Axis Reciprocating/Jig Saw from Worx saves you time, money, and its compact design saves you from the ache in your hands and arms that typically come with using saws like these. At only 4.2 lbs, this tool is easy to control, which is essential for the complicated designs you expect to cut with a jigsaw. And its vibration-absorbing soft grip handle cuts down on much of the unpleasant motion that’s inherent in using a reciprocating saw. It runs at 3000 rpms with a ¾” stroke length, which is enough to cut 2” into wood and PVC pipe and go 5/32” into steel plate as a jigsaw, and as a reciprocating saw it’ll cut 2” into wood, PVC, and steel pipe. The LED headlamp illuminates dark work areas. And the off switch locks into place to guard against accidental starts. The tool-free blade change system is easy to use and accepts all common reciprocating saw and jigsaw blades that you’ll find at any local hardware store. Don’t buy separate jig and reciprocating saws when the Axis was built from the ground up to accomplish the tasks of both in less time and with less strain on the user. This Axis comes with a 20V 1.5 Ah battery and 0.4A charger, which you can use with any tool in the Worx Power Share family. You save money in the long run when you can share batteries between the cordless tools in your collection.

• [2 SAWS IN 1] Pivoting, push-button head turns your jigsaw into a reciprocating saw and back again in just seconds
• [ORBITAL CUTTING] The slight circular motion is more efficient for most materials than the traditional back and forth stroke. Get the job done quicker, with less strain on your hands
• [DO IT ALL WITH THE SAME BATTERY] Worx Power Share is compatible with all Worx 20v and 40v tools, outdoor power and lifestyle products
• [COMPACT AND LIGHTWEIGHT] At only 4.2 lbs. you can maneuver easily, make intricate cuts, and work longer with less fatigue
• [DUST BLOWER] The integrated blower keeps dust and debris away from the surface of your cut, giving you better visibility of the cut and a more pleasant working environment
• [USE ANYBODY’S BLADES] Though Worx blades are pretty great, you can go down to the hardware store and pick up any standard reciprocating saw and t-shank saw blades to use in this tool
• [CUTS SO MANY MATERIALS] Wood, metal, ceramic, tile, plastic, tree limbs, PVC pipe, fiberglass, aluminum, copper, thin steel, even roots
• [INCLUDES] 20V Axis, 1.5Ah 20V Battery, 0.4A Charger

Cuts Through Almost Anything

Wood, metal, ceramic, tile, plastic, PVC pipe, fiberglass, aluminum, copper, thin steel, even roots and tree branches.

Dust Blower

Keep your project and your workspace clean, so you can see what you’re cutting and enjoy better air quality while you work.

2-Saws-in-1

Turn this saw from a reciprocating saw into a jigsaw and back again with just the push of a button and a pivot of the head.

Orbital Action

The slightly circular motion of the blade is a more efficient way to cut than the strictly back and forth motion of traditional saws.

Tool-Free Blade Change

It’s easy and safe to change out blades. And this saw is compatible with both jig and reciprocating saw blades from most major brands.

Highly Maneuverable

Reciprocating saws are for cutting out complex shapes with lots of twists and turns. So we made this saw lightweight, compact, and cordless. That comes in handy in reciprocating saw mode, too, as you can get into tighter spaces to take down drywall, pipes, and the like.

Flips Into Action

Just push the big red button to unlock the head and flip it up or down, and it locks into place. With 2 fully-featured saws in 1 you save the expense of buying a separate saw and gain the convenience of having one less tool to take to the worksite.

Product description

Only $89 for a fully-featured, powerful, compact cordless chainsaw to take on tasks around the yard. Of course, this tool is less expensive because it doesn’t come with a battery. But if you’re already a Worx Power Share user, you’ve probably got a 20V battery at home you can use to power this tool. The auto-tension and auto-oiling systems on this 10” 20V Chainsaw keep it in tip-top running condition. It prevents against over-tightening, and the 3/8” chain pitch chain will always run smoothly around the bar at 3.7 m/s on account of the optimal lubrication. The 4.5 fl oz oil tank is marked with an oil level indicator, so you’ll know when it’s time to refill. The compact and lightweight construction of this saw means it’s easier to maneuver, and it’s easier to use for those that may have been intimidated by larger chainsaws in the past. The on-board battery gauge will let you know how much charge you have left for the job. And the over-mold soft-grip rear handle gives you good control and is comfortable to use at the same time. An optional pole saw attachment (WA0167, not included) can be added for up to 10 feet of reach, so you can trim tree limbs with this saw. You don’t need to get on a ladder to cut down problematic branches anymore.

• [FAST, CLEAN CUTS] This cordless 20V PowerShare chain saw is as fast and powerful as anything in its class. And with no gas and no cord, there’s much less muss and fuss
• [AUTO-CHAIN TENSION] The automatic, tool-free chain tension system ensures you’ll always have the correct tension for the job at hand
• [SHARE BATTERIES, SAVE MONEY] Worx Power Share is compatible with all Worx 20v and 40v tools, outdoor power and lifestyle products
• [AUTO-CHAIN LUBRICATION] The automatic chain lubrication system not only makes for smoother, more efficient cuts, it extends the life of the tool. And the oil level indicator lets you know exactly where you stand
• [COMPACT, LIGHTWEIGHT] It weighs 6.2 lbs., about as much as a 2-Liter bottle of soda. You’ll work longer, with less strain
• [A FAST CHAIN SPEED] 12.5 ft/s. will tear through any reasonably sized log or branch. That speed, combined with our auto-tension and auto-oil systems, and the overall lightweight design, makes for one smooth saw experience
• [PLENTY OF JUICE] These are the same batteries we use on our Jawsaw and in our lawnmowers. They’re powerful enough for those, and powerful enough for a chainsaw

Product description

The 4-1/2” AC Compact Circular Saw from Worx was made to cut 2” nominal lumber. There’s no need to lug out the full-size circ saw for jobs like that. Just grab your AC and get to work. It also makes a great saw for DIY-ers or those living in apartments. It’s slim enough to keep in a closet or a drawer. But with a no-load speed of 3500/rpm, it has enough power to do most of the things larger saws can do, with way less hassle. It comes with a carbide-tipped wood cutting blade so you can get going right out of the box. And that blade can be replaced with any 4-1/2” blade with a 3/8” arbor from the hardware store. Plus, you can switch out the blade for metal, plastic, or tile cutting blades, too. It has a max cutting depth of 1-11/16”, and the included parallel guide lets you confidently make long straight cuts. The dust port allows you to hook up your shop vac so it can pull sawdust and debris right out of the air as you work. And the integrated safety trigger prevents accidental cutting. Perfect for quick plunge cuts or any other small jobs you want to do around the house, or big jobs down in the shop if you just want to take advantage of its maneuverability. The Worx 4-1/2” AC Compact Circular Saw is roughly half the size of standard circ saws but has full-size capabilities.

• SMALL FOR A REASON: Quick, more efficient cuts and you can take it with you when you don’t want to lug a big saw around
• EZ-SET DEPTH GAUGE The lever lets you go from 0-45 degree bevel settings with quick adjustment
• MADE FOR LUMBER: Excellent depth-of-cut for slicing up to 2" stock lumber. Cut 2x4s in a single pass. It also cuts metal, tile, and plastic
• SEE THE CUT: Left-sided blade optimization gives you a clear line of sight on anything you’re cutting
• DO IT YOURSELF. DO IT BETTER. DO IT WITH WORX. WORX tools are engineered with cutting-edge technology, and above modern efficiency standards, so you can build a cost-effective tool collection that’s been designed to last
• POWERFUL, PORTABLE: At 4-1/2”, and only half the weight of a full 7-1/4” circular saw, you get portability without sacrificing power. The thinner blade makes for less strain on the tool, so it can work harder
• 4.4 LBS Light, so you can operate it with one hand. That weight also allows you to make more precise cuts and work longer with less fatigue

Integrated Safety Trigger

We design tools with safety in mind, that’s why there’s a safety trigger you have to hold in place while you squeeze the on/off trigger. That way no one can accidentally start-up this saw.

Easy-Set Depth Gauge

While the WORXSAW was made to cut 2x4s, you can set the depth to more shallow cuts and use it for all sorts of projects.

Lightweight: Less Than 5 lbs

The WORXSAW is easy to control and maneuver with just one hand. Rip, bevel, plunge, and pocket cuts are all simple to perform as a result.

Left-Sided Blade Design

Half the Size, Plenty of Power

The 4-½” blade has half the kerf of the traditional 7-¼” circ saw blades, so the motor can spin it twice as fast--up to 3500 revs/min. The thinner blade also causes less strain, increasing the life of the tool.

Perfectly Portable

Full size circ saws can be a pain. The WORXSAW stores easier, travels lighter, and is much handier on the job site or in the workshop. For quick plunge cuts, without all the setup, just grab it and go.
