The Makita XWT15T is an 18V LXT Lithium-Ion brushless cordless 4-speed 1/2 square drive impact wrench kit with a detent anvil and a 5.0Ah battery. It's a game-changer for automotive, installation, and fabrication jobs, offering outstanding fastening control. Powered by a Makita-built brushless motor, it gives you extended run time and excellent speed control, delivering 240 ft.lbs. of maximum fastening torque and 430 ft.lbs. of nut-busting torque. The 4-speed power selection switch allows for precise control across a wide range of applications. Three forward and three reverse rotation auto-stop modes boost efficiency when loosening fasteners. The full-speed mode shortens the trigger pull to reach full speed. The XWT15T features Makita's Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), a seal inside the tool that channels water and dust away from key components, ensuring great performance in tough conditions. It's part of Makita's 18V LXT System, the world's largest cordless tool system using 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT batteries charge quickly, so you can work more and wait less. The kit includes one impact wrench with a detent anvil, two batteries, one charger, and one tool bag. With a compact and ergonomic design, it's only 5-5/8 inches long and weighs just 4.0 lbs with the battery, reducing operator fatigue. The rubberized soft grip adds comfort. The BL™ brushless motor is electronically controlled to use battery energy efficiently, giving up to 50% longer run time per charge. It also matches torque and RPM to the job's demands. The built-in LED light with an independent switch lights up the work area. The 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery BL1850B has an integrated LED charge level indicator and charges fully in 45 minutes or less. It's equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to prevent overloading, over-discharging, and over-heating. The Rapid Optimum Charger communicates with the battery's chip to optimize battery life and has a built-in fan for faster charging. It's compatible with Makita 18V lithium-ion batteries with a Star symbol and comes with a 3-year limited warranty on the tool, battery, and charger. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers.
Using the Makita XWT15T is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Insert the battery into the impact wrench until you hear a click. Select the appropriate speed on the 4-speed power selection switch according to your task. For forward or reverse rotation, use the corresponding auto-stop modes for more efficient work. To reach full speed quickly, use the full-speed mode. When you're done, turn off the tool and remove the battery. Keep in mind that you should only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and safety. The battery has Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and over-heating, but still avoid pushing it too hard. For maintenance, regularly clean the tool, especially after using it in dusty or wet conditions. The XWT15T has Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), but it's still a good idea to wipe it down. Check the battery charge level using the integrated LED indicator on the 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery BL1850B. If the charge is low, use the Rapid Optimum Charger to recharge it. The charger has a built-in fan to cool the battery and optimize the charging process. Remember, this tool comes with a 3-year limited warranty on the tool, battery, and charger, so take good care of it.
