About Makita 18V Cordless 7/8″ Rotary Hammer Kit – accepts SDS-PLUS bits XRH03…
Makita’s 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 7/8-Inch SDS-Plus Rotary Hammer (model XRH03) delivers faster, more efficient percussive drilling to the jobsite. The versatile XRH03 has three-mode operation and a built-in torque limiter to ensure stable torque control for a range of concrete drilling tasks.
The LXT Lithium-Ion Battery makes this rotary hammer perfect for remote use, where running a cord is not an option. Job site tested shock absorbent handle protects the battery housing for durability.
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.
