The Makita XAG25Z is a cordless 18V angle grinder sold as a tool only. A brushless motor with no carbon brushes runs cooler and more efficiently, and it delivers up to 8,500 RPM. It is compatible with Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries marked with a Star symbol.
The X-LOCK system changes wheels without tools: snap the wheel on and pull the release lever to remove it. The guard also adjusts without tools. A slide switch with lock-on, a rubberized soft grip and an anti-vibration side handle are included for control and comfort.
Active Feedback-sensing Technology turns the motor off if the wheel is suddenly forced to stop. Automatic Speed Change adjusts speed and torque during use. Soft start reduces start-up reaction, and anti-restart protection stops the motor from starting when a battery is inserted with the switch locked on. Star Protection Computer Controls guard against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating. Spiral bevel gears give smoother rotation, and wire mesh intake covers keep debris out of the motor. Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) improves dust and water resistance. A 3-stage LED gauge shows battery charge level.
