The 40V Max XGT brushless 1/2" right angle drill (GAD01M1) offers freedom from the cord for demanding drilling applications. A Makita-built brushless motor, two-speed transmission, and variable speeds (0-350 RPM, 0-1,400 RPM), deliver for maximum efficiency and wide range of drilling applications. It can drill up to 6-1/4" holes with hole saws and 4-5/8" holes with self-feed bits. Added features include a torque limiter to reduce gear damage, soft start for smooth start-ups, an electric brake for maximum productivity, and dual L.E.D lights to illuminate the work area. It includes a side handle which attaches to either side of the tool. The drill features extreme protection technology (XPT), a series of integrated seals designed to improve a tool’s operation in harsh conditions. Water and solid debris that enter a tool are redirected through carefully engineered channels and ducts to prevent damage to key components, such as triggers, motors, and other electronics. XGT is a system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers utilizing 40v max lithium-ion batteries. XGT is engineered to deliver high power to take on high-demand applications, allowing users to completely transition to a cordless job site. XGT is equipped with advanced brushless motor engineering, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability features to outpower, outsmart and outlast the rest.
