Makita delivers corded grinding performance without the cord with the 18-Volt X2 LXT Lithium-Ion (36-Volt) Brushless 7 in. Paddle Switch Cut-Off/Angle Grinder with Electric Brake and AWS (tool only, battery and charger sold separately). It's powered by a Makita brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed and longer tool life. for the most demanding applications, Makitas exclusive Automatic Speed Change technology automatically adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimal performance. The XAG22ZU1 is ideal for grinding and cutting a wide range of materials including tile, concrete, pipe, conduit and more. for improved efficiency, its equipped with Auto-Start Wireless System (AWS) technology. AWS utilizes Bluetooth technology for wireless communication between the tool and dust extractor (sold separately). When the trigger 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. Additional features include the BL Brushless Motor, Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT) and an electric brake that stops the grinding or cut-off wheel in 2-seconds or less.
