The Makita GPH01D 40V max XGT® Brushless Cordless ½” Hammer Driver - Drill is a game - changer for tough drilling and driving jobs in wood, masonry, and metal. Its hammer - drill mode is great for making holes in concrete or masonry with a percussive action. Powered by a Makita - built brushless motor, it pumps out 1,250 in.lbs. of Max Torque, outperforming other driver - drills in heavy - load tasks. It drills up to 35% faster than Makita’s 18V LXT Cordless ½” Hammer Driver - Drill (XPH07), with two speed settings (0 - 650 and 0 - 2,600 RPM and 0 - 9,750 and 0 - 39,000 BPM). The ultra - smooth variable speed trigger gives you top - notch control. The electronic digital clutch precisely targets the desired torque range (41 settings in low speed, 21 in high speed). The Active Feedback - sensing Technology (AFT®) shuts off the motor if the accessory's rotation suddenly stops. Thanks to Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), it offers better dust and water resistance in rough jobsite conditions. The reinforced gear housing and all - metal chuck add to its durability. XGT is a complete system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers using 40v max lithium - ion batteries. It's designed to deliver high power for high - demand jobs, letting you go completely cordless on the jobsite. With advanced brushless motor tech, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability, it beats the competition. The kit includes a 40V max XGT® Brushless 1/2' Hammer Driver - Drill (GPH01Z), a 40V max XGT® Rapid Optimum Charger (DC40RA), two 40V max XGT® 2.5Ah Batteries (BL4025), a side handle, and a tool bag.
Using the Makita GPH01D is easy. First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Then, select the appropriate bit for your task, like a drill bit for wood or a masonry bit for concrete. You can use the two - speed settings to match the job's requirements. When using the hammer - drill mode for masonry work, apply a bit of pressure and let the tool do its job. Be careful when using the tool. The Active Feedback - sensing Technology (AFT®) is there to protect you, but still, don't force the accessory to stop suddenly. Keep the tool away from water and excessive dust as much as possible, even though it has XPT™ for protection. For maintenance, clean the tool regularly with a dry cloth. Check the chuck for any debris and make sure it's tightened properly. Charge the batteries as needed, and don't overcharge them. The XGT® Rapid Charger has a digital display to show the battery charge level, so you can keep an eye on it.
