CORDED GRINDING PERFORMANCE

• Automatic Speed Change™ technology adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance
• 3-stage L.E.D. gauge indicates battery charge level
• Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life
• Spiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy
• Anti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start up when battery is inserted with switch locked on
• Efficient internal cooling is engineered for optimum performance
• Wire mesh intake covers are engineered to prevent debris from entering motor
• Equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating
• Rapid Optimum Charger communicates with the battery's built-in chip throughout the charging process to optimize battery life by actively controlling current, voltage and temperature (battery and charger sold separately)
• Rapid Optimum Charger has a built-in fan to cool the battery for faster, more efficient charging (battery and charger sold separately)
• Makita technology delivers category-leading charge time so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger (battery and charger sold separately)
• Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT®) turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop
• Compatible with Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries with a Star symbol (battery sold separately)
• Extreme protection technology (XPT™) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions
• Battery and charger sold separately
• The BL™ Brushless Motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL™ Motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
• Efficient BL™ Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge
• The electronically-controlled BL™ Brushless Motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application
• Compact and ergonomic design at only 14-1/4" long
• Weighs only 5.6 lbs. with battery (battery not included) for reduced operator fatigue
• Rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort on the job
• Slide switch with lock-on for operator convenience
