The 18 V LXT® Lithium-Ion cordless 5 in random orbit sander (Model XOB01Z, tool only) delivers increased efficiency and mobility to woodworkers. The XOB01Z features three-speed settings, excellent ergonomics and up to 40 mins of run-time on a single-charge. Match the speed to the application with three-speed settings (7000/9500/11,000 rpm), which are easily changed with a one-touch electronic control switch. The large 1/8 in random orbit action is engineered for efficient sanding, fast material removal and a swirl-free finish. The pad brake reduces free-spin for improved overall finish and a control system regulates pad speed at start-up. The XOB01Z uses quick-change 5 in (eight-hole) hook and loop abrasive paper for increased versatility. It's part of Makita's expanding 18 V Lithium-Ion series, the world's largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18 V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Makita 18 V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery-life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. 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 18 V LXT® and compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating star protection inside.
