A power tool includes a linear motor and a maximum reciprocal movement amount setting unit. The linear motor has a movable member driven to move reciprocally and a tool connector for connecting work bits to the movable member. The maximum reciprocal movement amount setting unit is for setting maximum reciprocal movement amount at which the linear motor drives movement of the movable member to a selected one of a plurality of maximum reciprocal movement amounts. Also, a position information region is provided on the movable member. A movable member region detector detects the movable member position information region of the movable member and a control unit sets, as the initial position of the movable member, position of the movable member at the time the movable member region detector detects the movable member position information region.
A power tool comprising:
A power tool as claimed in claim, 3 further comprising a power-supply circuit that supplies power to the linear motor when closed and a trigger switch that opens and closes the power-supply circuit when pulled, the reciprocating movement amount setting unit and the reciprocal speed setting unit including at least one of a digital switch that changes digital output in association with pulling amount that the trigger switch is pulled and a variable resistor that changes resistance in association with pulling amount that the trigger switch is pulled.
A power tool comprising:
