This pack comes with a bonus 18V LXT cordless jig saw (XVJ03Z), offering even more value. Inside the starter pack, you'll find three 18V LXT 4.0Ah lithium-ion batteries (BL1840B), which provide up to 35% more run time per charge compared to the BL1830. The 18V LXT charger (DC18SD) can charge a 4.0Ah battery in just 90 minutes, giving you longer working times with less charging downtime. The 18V LXT brushless 4-1/2” / 5' X-LOCK angle grinder with AFT (XAG25Z) is a powerful and versatile tool. Its X-LOCK system allows for five-times faster blade changes. The included X-LOCK 5' continuous rim diamond blade (E-07406) is engineered with an optimal bond matrix, providing a faster, longer-lasting, and smoother cutting experience. It's perfect for cutting hard materials like ceramic, granite, porcelain, tile, and stone. The 18V LXT lithium-ion 4.0Ah battery has several great features. It can reach a full charge in 90 minutes or less, and the integrated L.E.D. battery charge level indicator lets you easily monitor the battery's charge. The STAR Protection Computer Controls™ protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. The battery also has an impact-resistant outer case and a shock-absorbing inner-liner to protect it. Sixteen contact terminals maintain a constant connection with the tool, preventing power loss or fluctuation, even during high-vibration applications. It resists self-discharge and stays ready for use after long periods of storage. This battery is compatible only with Star Protection tools, indicated by the Star Symbol™ and/or Yellow Battery Receiver under the tool. Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion is the world's largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. The charger has a built-in fan that circulates air through the battery during charging to cool it for a faster charge time. It also optimizes battery life by actively controlling current, voltage, and temperature. And it comes with a 3-year limited warranty.
Using the Makita BL1840BSCX3 Starter Pack is easy. First, charge the 18V LXT 4.0Ah batteries using the 18V LXT charger. The charger has a built - in fan to cool the battery during charging, and it should take about 90 minutes to fully charge a battery.

For the 18V LXT brushless 4 - 1/2” / 5' X - LOCK angle grinder, when you need to change the blade, use the X - LOCK system for quick and easy blade changes.
