The Makita XVR01T 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Rivet Tool Kit is a game-changer for riveting tasks. This powerful kit lets you install or pull aluminum, steel, and stainless steel rivets with ease. The XVR01T can handle rivets up to 3/16” (4.8 mm). Its BL™ Brushless Motor packs a punch, delivering 10 kN of pulling force, and the 25 mm stroke sets most rivets in just one go. Compact at only 12-3/8” long and weighing just 4.9 lbs with the 5.0Ah LXT Battery, it reduces operator fatigue. The ergonomic handle offers enhanced comfort, and the built-in L.E.D. light brightens up the work area. The transparent mandrel catch container makes it easy to check the level. The kit comes with the rivet tool, an 18V LXT 5.0Ah Battery (BL1850B), 18V LXT Rapid Optimum Charger (DC18RC), Molybdenum Disulfide Grease (191D57-7), 3.2 mm (1/8”) Nosepiece and Jaw Pusher with Tube, and 4.0 mm (5/32”) Nosepiece and Jaw Pusher. It's part of Makita's large 18V LXT System, powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Batteries charge fast, so you can get back to work quickly. With Star Protection Computer Controls™, it guards against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. It's also compatible with Makita 18V LXT Batteries with the star symbol, offering more versatility.
Using the Makita XVR01T rivet tool is straightforward. First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Insert the appropriate nosepiece and jaw pusher for the rivet size you're using. Then, place the rivet in the tool. You can operate the tool in any orientation as it holds the rivet in place. Just pull the trigger to install or pull the rivet. When it comes to maintenance, use the included Molybdenum Disulfide Grease regularly to keep the tool in good condition. Check the mandrel catch container often and empty it when it's full. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and safety. Remember, this tool comes with a 3-year limited warranty on the tool, battery, and charger. Avoid overloading the tool, over-discharging the battery, and overheating the tool to keep it working well for a long time.
