Makita 36V (2 x 18V) LXT 5.0Ah Batteries Cordless 1-1/8 Inch Rotary Hammer Kit

The Makita 36V (18V X2) LXT Brushless 1-1/8 Inch AVT Rotary Hammer accepts SDS-PLUS bits is a cordless concrete solution that is loaded with advanced engineering for maximum efficiency and convenient dust extraction. It is powered by two 18V LXT batteries and an efficient brushless motor for maximum power, speed, and run-time for corded demands, without the cord. With X2 LXT technology, the Rotary Hammer delivers up to 140 1/2 x 2-3/8 inch holes per charge when using two 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries.

Attachments

The Rotary Hammer includes an OSHA Table 1 compliant on-board dust extractor attachment with a filter-cleaning mechanism designed to maintain optimum suction efficiency. The trigger-activated dust extractor is powered by a separate motor which increases suction efficiency without sacrificing the performance of the rotary hammer. The rubber suction gasket is engineered to provide consistent contact with the work surface, where the dust is channeled to the clear dust container with a HEPA filter which captures 99.97% of dust particles (size .3 microns). An added feature is a 3-second delay on the vacuum motor: After the trigger is released, the 3-second extended suction collects remnant dust and particles as the bit is being pulled out of the work surface, making it ideal for overhead drilling.

Dust Management

The dust extractor attachment is removable and the rotary hammer can be used with a separate attachment and dust extractor (sold separately). The Rotary Hammer is AWS capable with Auto-Start Wireless System, which utilizes Bluetooth technology for wireless power-on or off communication between the tool and equipped dust extractor. To activate AWS, simply install the Auto-Start Wireless Transmitter (198901-5, sold separately) and synchronize with an AWS-equipped dust extractor (XCV08, sold separately).

Advanced Technology

For reduced vibration, it is equipped with Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT). More than just a padded handle, AVT is an internal counterbalance that uses air pressure to move counterweight pistons in the opposite direction of the drive piston to actively reduce vibration. In addition, the vibration-absorbing back handle and side handle further reduce vibration. The result is a low vibration rating of only 9m/s² but with no compromise in performance. The efficient brushless motor delivers a full 2.3 feet lb of impact energy, with 0 to 980 RPM and 0 to 5000 BPM.

Efficiency

The Rotary Hammer includes both mechanical and electronic technologies to address bit binding. Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT) uses an onboard accelerometer to measure rotation and electronically turns off the motor if the rotation of the bit is suddenly forced to stop. In addition, the torque-limiting clutch is engineered to prevent gear damage by automatically disengaging the gears if the bit binds. Added features include constant speed control which automatically adds power to the motor to maintain speed under load to complete the most demanding jobs, an electric brake, variable speed dial, built-in LED light, and a retractable tool hook. For added durability in harsh job site conditions, Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance.
