Description
18V X2 LXT® Lithium-Ion (36V) Brushless Cordless 7″ Paddle Switch Cut-Off/Angle Grinder, with Electric Brake, Tool Only
The Makita LXT® 7 Inch cut-off/angle grinder is powered by a brushless motor that runs cooler and more efficiently for long duration and also optimizes battery energy use for up to 50%. Automatic Speed Change™ technology offers optimum performance by automatically adjusting speed and torque during operation. The electronic controller offers soft start that suppresses start-up reaction for smooth start-ups and longer gear life. Anti-restart protection is engineered to avoid motor start up in the on-power switch position after a power disruption. The Makita’s star protection computer control protects battery by avoiding over-heating and over-loading. Multi-stage LED displays indicate about the power remaining. Wire mesh intake covers are designed to avoid debris from entering motor. Electric brake stops the wheel in 4.5 seconds or less on release of the paddle switch. AFT® technology turns the motor off if rotation of the wheel is suddenly forced to stop. It includes grinding wheel, cut-off wheel, grinding wheel guard and cut-off wheel guard.
