The Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless ½” Hammer Driver-Drill (XPH06) is the professional’s choice. The brushless motor delivers up 50% more work per charge with a full 560 in.lbs. of Max Torque. For the pro user, this means more drilling and driving power, greater productivity, and fewer trips up and down scaffolding, ladders and scissor lifts to get to their battery charger. The driver mode with adjustable torque settings puts you in control of the most demanding fasteners, but also allows you to reduce the torque for those small delicate screws. The percussive hammer and driver-drill capabilities are a perfect fit for the pro that wants more features. It is ideal for a range of applications requiring percussive hammer-drilling, include fastening medium sized anchors, drilling into masonry, and even setting small sized anchors into concrete. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18V 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 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
