Product Description
The Makita 18V X2 LXT® (36V) Brushless 1-1/8 In. AVT® rotary hammer is a top - notch cordless solution for concrete work. Powered by two 18V LXT® batteries and an efficient brushless motor, it offers maximum power, speed, and long run - time, just like a corded tool but without the hassle of cords. With X2 LXT technology, when using two 18V LXT 5.0 Ah batteries, it can drill up to 140 1/2 In. x 2 - 3/8 In. holes per charge. Anti - vibration technology (AVT®) is a game - changer. It's not just a padded handle; it's an internal counterbalance using air pressure to move counterweight pistons opposite the drive piston, actively reducing vibration. The vibration - absorbing back and side handles further enhance this effect, resulting in a low vibration rating of only 9 m/s², all while delivering a full 2.3 ft. lbs. of impact energy, with 250 to 980 RPM and 0 - 5,000 BPM. The torque - limiting clutch prevents gear damage by automatically disengaging gears if the bit binds. Constant speed control adds power to the motor under load, ensuring you can finish tough jobs. Other great features include an electric brake, variable speed dial, built - in L.E.D. light, and a retractable tool hook. Extreme protection technology (XPT™) boosts dust and water resistance, perfect for harsh job sites. It also has dust extraction capability with an optional OSHA table 1 compliant on - board dust extractor attachment (sold separately). Ideal for various trades like mechanical/electrical/plumbing contractors, concrete contractors, and more, it accepts SDS - Plus bits. The package includes a 18V X2 LXT® (36V) Brushless 1 - 1/8' AVT® Rotary Hammer (XRH08Z), two 18V LXT® Lithium - Ion 5.0Ah Batteries (BL1850B), a 18V LXT® Lithium - Ion Dual Port Charger (DC18RD), a side handle, a depth gauge, and a tool bag.
Using your Makita XRH08PT rotary hammer is easy. First, make sure the batteries are fully charged. Insert the SDS - Plus bit into the bit holder. Turn on the tool using the power switch. You can adjust the speed using the variable speed dial according to your needs. When drilling, apply steady pressure. If the bit binds, the torque - limiting clutch will automatically disengage the gears to protect the tool. After use, turn off the tool and remove the bit. To maintain your tool, keep it clean. Wipe off any dust or debris after each use. Since it has XPT™ technology, it can handle some dust and water, but try to avoid excessive exposure. Store the tool in a dry place. Charge the batteries properly using the provided charger. Don't over - charge or over - discharge them. The charger communicates with the battery's built - in chip to optimize battery life. Remember, use only genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure safety and performance. The tool, battery, and charger come with a 3 - year limited warranty, so if you have any problems, contact Makita support.
