The Makita 36V (18V X2) LXT Brushless 1 - 9/16” Advanced AVT Rotary Hammer with AWS is a top - notch cordless solution for concrete work. It combines advanced engineering to offer maximum efficiency. With the Auto - Start Wireless System (AWS), it can connect wirelessly to an AWS - equipped dust extractor (sold separately), which eliminates cords and reduces noise. The Advanced AVT technology significantly cuts down vibration. It has an internal counterbalance using air pressure to move counterweight pistons in the opposite direction of the drive piston, resulting in a low vibration rating of just 5m/s² without sacrificing performance. The efficient brushless motor, powered by two 18V LXT batteries (sold separately), provides 8.4 ft. lbs. of impact energy, 250 - 500 RPM, and 1,450 - 2,900 BPM. The Active Feedback - Sensing Technology (AFT) shuts off the motor if the bit rotation suddenly stops. It also features constant speed control, soft start technology, and a soft no - load function for better performance and longer tool life. This rotary hammer is suitable for various concrete applications and trades. It accepts SDS - MAX bits and is part of Makita's 18V Lithium - Ion system. Makita's Star Protection Computer Controls enhance tool performance and battery life. It comes with an auto - start wireless transmitter, side handle assembly, depth rod, bit grease, and a tool case.
Using the Makita 36V (18V X2) LXT AVT Rotary Hammer is easy. First, make sure to insert two 18V LXT batteries (not included) into the tool. Connect an AWS - equipped dust extractor if you have one for a cleaner work environment. When starting the tool, the soft start feature will give you more control. Use the variable speed control dial to match the speed to your specific job. For safety, always wear appropriate protective gear. If the bit gets stuck, the Active Feedback - Sensing Technology will turn off the motor to prevent damage. When not in use, turn off the tool and store it in the provided tool case. To maintain the tool, clean it regularly, especially after use in dusty conditions. Check the bit regularly for wear and tear. Also, keep the batteries charged properly and avoid over - discharging or over - heating them. With proper use and maintenance, this rotary hammer will serve you well for a long time.
