LXT Lithium-Ion

The Makita XRU04Z is part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. The Makita 18V LXT battery has the fastest charge time in its category, so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

Brushless Technology

Makita’s efficient BL Brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. And with no carbon brushes, the Makita BL Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life.
