Product Description
The Makita XT288T 18V LXT 2-Piece Combo Kit is a powerful and efficient set for all your drilling, driving, and fastening needs. This kit includes a 18V LXT® Brushless 1/2' Hammer Driver-Drill (XPH14Z), a free XDT13Z 18V LXT Li-Ion Brushless Cordless Impact Driver Bare Tool, a 18V LXT® Brushless 4-Speed Impact Driver (XDT19Z), an 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Rapid Optimum Charger (DC18RC), two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah Batteries (BL1850B), and a tool bag. The hammer driver-drill offers variable 2-speed operation with a brushless motor, delivering 0 - 550 & 0 - 2,100 RPM and 1,250 in.lbs. of max torque. It weighs only 6.0 lbs. with the battery. The impact driver features 4-speed power selection, providing 1,600 in.lbs. of max torque and weighing just 3.4 lbs. with the battery. The Makita-built brushless motor is electronically controlled, optimizing battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge. It also matches torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application. The Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) enhances dust and water resistance, allowing operation in tough conditions. Star Protection Computer Controls™ protect against overloading, over-discharging, and over-heating. The Rapid Optimum Charger has a built-in fan, cooling the battery for faster and more efficient charging. The 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries reach a full charge in 45 minutes or less and feature an integrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator. This kit is 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. Only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers. The 18V LXT® system offers a wide range of tools and accessories, and the fast-charging batteries spend more time working and less time on the charger. The XDT16 impact driver sets new standards with four speeds and Quick-Shift Mode™ for better fastening control, and Tightening Mode (T-mode) to prevent screw damage. The XPH14 hammer driver-drill combines power and run-time for various tasks in wood, metal, and masonry.
Using the Makita XT288T 18V LXT 2-Piece Combo Kit is easy. First, make sure you charge the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion 5.0Ah batteries using the Rapid Optimum Charger. It'll take about 45 minutes or less to fully charge them. Once the batteries are charged, insert them into the tools. For the hammer driver-drill, you can select the appropriate speed depending on your task. The lower speed is great for more precise work, while the higher speed is for faster drilling. When using the impact driver, choose from the four available speeds. The Quick-Shift Mode™ helps you get the best balance of speed and torque for different applications. And if you're using the Tightening Mode (T-mode), it'll prevent screw damage. While using the tools, remember that they're protected by Star Protection Computer Controls™, but still try not to overload them. Avoid using them in extremely wet or dusty conditions, although the Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) gives them some resistance. For maintenance, keep the tools clean after each use. Wipe them down with a dry cloth. Don't use harsh chemicals on them. Also, store the batteries in a cool, dry place when not in use. And always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and safety of the tools.
