The Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless ½” Driver-Drill (XFD03Z, tool only) delivers high torque, power, performance and improved ergonomics in a compact size. The XFD03Z weighs only 5 pounds (with battery, sold separately) with a superior power-to-weight ratio for a full range of drilling and driving applications.
It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. 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.
For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
The XFD03Z is powered by a Makita-built 4-pole motor with bigger front end ball bearings, and delivers a full 750 in.lbs. of Max Torque. The new planetary gear system and transmission has been redesigned for increased durability in a more compact size, so the XFD03Z is 8-7/8” long and weighs only 5 lbs. (with battery, sold separately).
