Makita USA, Inc. introduces the 18V LXT® Brushless Cut-Out Tool, AWS™ Capable (XOC02Z). This cut-out tool is ideal for cutting drywall, tile, wood, thin metal and fiberglass.
The XOC02 can cut up to 2 layers of 1/2" drywall sheets. The Makita-built BL™ Brushless Motor delivers 32,000 RPM for faster cutting. It accepts both 1/8" and 1/4" bits.
It is the world’s first AWS-capable cordless cut-out tool. With the Auto-Start Wireless Transmitter (198901-5, sold separately), the cut-out tool can connect to an AWS-equipped dust extractor/vacuum for wireless power-on/power-off to help reduce dust in the work environment.
Other features include a tool-less depth adjustment, twin LED lights to illuminate the work area, electric brake, a slide switch with lock-on for convenience, and vent slots to direct air and debris away from the operator.
