Makita 18V LXT Router Starter Lithium Ion Compact Brushless Cordless Kit
The Makita compact brushless cordless router starter kit contains a router, 18 Volt 4 Amp-Hours battery, rapid optimum charger, trimmer base, straight guide, two spanner wrenches, 1/4 Inch collet and an interlocking case. Router is powered by a brushless motor that operates at a variable speed of 10000 to 30000 RPM. Depth can be adjusted easily with the help of a smooth rack and pinion for accurate settings. Brushless motor is controlled electronically that helps in optimizing battery life and maintains uniform speed even under load. On/off button with a separate locking mechanism ensures good user convenience and the soft start mechanism ensures easy initiation of the tool. Compact and lightweight design makes it easy to carry and use. Rubberized grip on the soft handle minimizes fatigue and ensures good operational comfort. Aluminum construction offers added strength and durability. Dual LED lights brightens up the working area in dark conditions. Quick release cam lock mechanism ensures better depth adjustments and easy base removal or installation. High visibility base ensures the user can see the cutting line while doing the operation. Base insert prevents marring and offers more work piece safety. Shaft lock facilitates smoother bit changing. Depth scales have an easy-to-read design. Dust nozzle gives the option of connecting the router to a vacuum cleaner. Star protection computer controls prevent overloading, overheating and over-discharging of the tool. Dual port charger and the rapid optimum charger charges two batteries simultaneously and communicates with the built-in chip to maximize the battery life. Integrated fans in the charger cools down the batteries.
