Makita® XGD01PT Brushless Earth Auger Kit, 36 V, Lithium-Ion Battery, 350 rpm, 1400 rpm Speed, 33 in OAL

Makita® Brushless Earth Auger Kit, Kit, 36 V, Lithium-Ion Battery, 350 rpm, 1400 rpm, 2 Speed Setting, Reverse Switch, 33 in Overall Length

With zero emissions, lower noise and considerably less maintenance, the 36 V LXT® brushless cordless earth auger kit is a welcome solution for landscapers. The earth auger provides high performance digging with even and consistent holes. It is ideal for post-hole digging, fence installation, large planting jobs, soil sampling and construction projects. The Makita® built brushless motor delivers power equivalent to a 36 cc gas earth auger. The XGD01PT can drill holes up to 8 in W and 41 in D. The extension bar, auger bit and blades are sold separately. There are two speed options to manage power and run time. A reverse switch clears the earth auger bit from high resistance soil. Other features include built-in LED light illuminates the work area, automatic speed change to adjust drill speed and torque during drilling and a torque limiter, which is a built-in clutch that reduces gear damage by disengaging gears if the bit binds. It's part of Makita®'s expanding 18 V LXT® system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18 V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18 V LXT® 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® lithium-ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
