The M4301 is Makita's entry MT-series jigsaw, 450W and 1.9kg, with an 18mm stroke and 65mm wood depth. It matches the 4329 on capacity but sets speed by the trigger rather than a dial, and Makita gives 8.0 m/s² cutting boards against 7.0 on the 4329. For trade cutting depth the 4350FCT goes to 135mm.
