The Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless Autofeed Screwdriver (model XRF01) delivers power and a high capacity range in a more compact size. It has an integrated autofeed design for less weight and more power, and the extension handle makes it ideal for decking and sub-floor applications. 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. Makita-Built Motor Engineered for Versatile Power The XRF01 has a powerful Makita-built 4-pole motor that delivers 4,000 RPM, with a high capacity range of 1-3/4” to 2-15/16” for collated screws. The silent clutch design uses higher durability materials, increasing operation efficiency and decreasing driver noise. The rugged aluminum dust-proof autofeed housing ensures smooth sliding action, while the screw guide prevents the screw strip from tangling and can fold against the autofeed housing for storing and carrying. Ergonomic Design in a Compact Size The integrated autofeed design reduces the weight, yet makes the XRFR01 more powerful and more compact than other brands: it weighs just 5.2 lbs. and has an ergonomic shape that fits like a glove with even pressure and easy control.
