Description
Makita 18V LXT 9″ Drywall Sander Lithium Ion Brushless Cordless AWS Capable Bare Tool
Makita® 18V LXT® Brushless Cordless Drywall Sander (XLS01ZX1) delivers increased efficiency and mobility for drywall finishers. The compact and lightweight design makes the XLS01 easier to use for extended periods of time. It delivers up to 35 minutes of run time on a single charge of an 18V 5.0Ah battery (sold separately). Users can match the speed to the application with a variable speed control dial (1,000 – 1,800 RPM), and Constant Speed Control automatically provides additional power to the motor to maintain speed under load for consistent performance. The XLS01ZX1 features a round brush design for efficient dust extraction and minimal leakage.
The large, highly flexible head is engineered for increased maneuverability across various wall orientations. The direct-drive BL™ Brushless Motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life. The adjustable extension pipe collapses for sanding in confined spaces, such as closets, and extends up to 16-1/2” for reaching high walls and ceilings. The dust brush is removable for seamless flush-to-corner edge sanding.
For improved efficiency, it’s equipped with Auto-Start Wireless System technology (AWS®). AWS utilizes Bluetooth® technology for wireless communication between the tool and dust extractor (sold separately). When the trigger of the AWS-equipped XLS01 is engaged, the AWS-equipped dust extractor powers-up. When the trigger is released, the dust extractor powers-down. AWS is intelligent communication that eliminates cords and excessive noise since the dust extractor runs only when the tool is running.
It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT® system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion batteries. Makita® 18V Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
