- Is this impact driver powerful enough for deck building?
- No. It is a 12V compact driver meant for screws and small fasteners. For deck screws and lag bolts, an 18V impact driver is the better fit.
- Do the batteries work with other Makita tools?
- They fit Makita 12V Max CXT tools only. They do not work in Makita's 18V LXT line, which uses a different slide battery.
- What comes in the kit?
- The kit includes the impact driver, two 12V Max CXT batteries and a charger. Bits and a case vary by kit version, so check the box contents.
- Can it be used as a drill?
- It is an impact driver, not a drill. It has no drill clutch or hammer mode, so for holes you need a separate drill.
- Is it good for furniture assembly?
- Yes. Its light weight, compact body and variable speed make it well suited to flat-pack furniture and cabinet screws.
- How does it compare with an 18V impact driver?
- It is smaller and lighter but has less torque. Choose it for light, tight-space work and an 18V model for heavy fastening.
