Usage Recommendations
Use the higher speed settings for cutting and grinding denser materials such as stone or thicker metals, and select lower speeds when working on metal edges or when polishing to avoid damaging the surface. For sanding on tight corners the triangular pad and matching sheets are useful, while the semicircular and straight saw blades help with plunge cuts and trimming.
Advantages
The brushless drive and variable speed control make the tool flexible for many tasks around renovation and repair, from trimming door casings to removing grout. The built-in protection systems can help prolong battery life, according to the manufacturer, and the wide accessory selection allows you to tackle different materials without sourcing additional blades straight away. Consider that the kit does not include a Makita battery or charger and is not compatible with Makita G-series batteries, so you will need a suitable BL18 battery to power the unit. 🛠️ 🔋
