The Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 7/8” SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer (XRH04T) delivers faster, more efficient percussive drilling to the jobsite. The versatile XRH04T has 3-mode operation with a more compact design and a shock absorbent handle that protects the battery housing for added durability. The built-in clutch is engineered to reduce gear damage by automatically disengaging gears if the bit binds. The kit includes two 18V LXT® 5.0Ah batteries, and each reach a full charge in only 45 minutes. 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.
