Makita® 18V LXT® XAG20Z Cordless Angle Grinder With Electric Brake, Tool/Kit: Tool, 5 in Dia Wheel, 18 V, 15 in OAL

Makita® 18V LXT® Cordless Angle Grinder, Tool, 5 in Wheel Diameter, 5/8-11 Spindle Thread, 18 V, Lithium-Ion Battery, 3000 to 8500 rpm, Paddle Switch, Soft Grip Handle, Rubber Handle, 15 in Overall Length

Makita® delivers corded grinding performance without the cord with the 18 V LXT® lithium-ion brushless 4-1/2 in/5 in paddle switch cut-off/angle grinder with electric brake (tool only, battery and charger sold separately). It's powered by a Makita® brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. For the most demanding applications, Makita® exclusive automatic Speed Change™ technology automatically adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimal performance. The XAG20Z is ideal for grinding and cutting a wide range of materials including tile, concrete, pipe, conduit and more. Additional features include an electric brake that stops the grinding or cut- off wheel in 2 s or less and electronic torque control that turns the motor off if rotation speed suddenly slows or the wheel is forced to a stop. The variable speed control dial allows manual rpm adjustment (3000 to 8500), allowing the user to match the speed to the application. Its part of Makita® expanding 18 V lithium-ion system, the worlds largest cordless tool system powered by 18 V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18 V lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita® created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star protection is communication technology that allows the star protection equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita® 18 V LXT® and compact lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating star protection inside.

Features:

• Electric brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 s or less for maximum productivity
• Active feedback sensing technology (AFT®) turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop
• Automatic Speed Change™ technology adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance
• The BL™ brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL™ motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
• Variable speed control dial allows manual rpm adjustment (3000 to 8500 rpm) to match the speed to the application
• Paddle switch with no lock-on for operator convenience
• Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-up and longer gear life
• Anti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start-up when battery is inserted with the paddle switch in the on position
• Efficient BL™ brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge
• The electronically controlled BL™ brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and rpm to the changing demands of the application
• Three stage LED gauge indicates battery charge level
• Spiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy
• Wire mesh intake covers are engineered to prevent debris from entering motor
• Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions
• Rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort on the job
• Weighs only 5.7 lb with battery (battery not included) for reduced operator fatigue
• Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over discharging and over heating
• Rapid optimum charger communicates with the battery's built-in chip throughout the charging process to optimize battery life by actively controlling current, voltage and temperature (battery and charger sold separately)
• Makita® technology delivers category leading charge time so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger (battery and charger sold separately)
