Product Details

Makita delivers corded grinding performance without the cord with the 18V LXT lithium-ion brushless 4-1/2"/5" cut-off/angle grinder with electric brake (tool only, battery and charger sold separately). It's powered by a Makita brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. For the most demanding applications, Makita's exclusive Automatic speed change technology automatically adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimal performance. The XAG16Z is ideal for grinding and cutting a wide range of materials including tile, concrete, pipe, conduit and more.

Additional include an electric brake that stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less and electronic torque control that turns the motor off if rotation speed suddenly slows or the wheel is forced to a stop. The variable speed control dial allows manual RPM adjustment (3,000 - 8,500), allowing the user to match the speed to the application.

It's part of Makita's expanding 18V lithium-ion system, the cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. 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.

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.

Features:
• Electric Brake stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2 seconds or less for maximum productivity
• Active feedback-sensing technology (AFT) turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop
• Automatic speed change technology adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance
• Brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the brushless motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life
• Variable speed control dial allows manual RPM adjustment (3,000-8,500) to match the speed to the application
• Slide switch with lock-on for operator convenience
• Soft start suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life
• Anti-restart protection engineered to prevent motor start up when battery is inserted with switch locked on
• Efficient brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge
• The electronically-controlled brushless motor efficiently uses energy to match torque and RPM to the changing demands of the application
• 3-stage LED gauge indicates battery charge level
• Spiral bevel gears for smoother rotations and a more efficient transfer of energy
• Wire mesh intake covers are engineered to prevent debris from entering motor
• Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions
• Rubberized soft grip provides increased comfort on the job
• Compact and ergonomic design at only 15" long
• Weighs only 5.7lb with battery (battery not included) for reduced operator fatigue
• 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
• 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)

Includes:
• 5" x 1/4" x 7/8" INOX grinding wheel, 36 Grit (A-95962)
• 5" Cut-Off wheel guard (126686-3)
• 5" Tool-less wheel guard (126687-1)
• Lock nut wrench (782424-9)
• Side handle (158237-4)
