## Description

The 18V LXT® Sub-Compact Brushless Impact Driver (XDT18ZB) is a fastening solution with significantly less weight. The 18V Sub-Compact Impact Driver offers the size and weight of lower voltage tools, but with the performance, power, and compatibility of 18-Volt. It has an efficient brushless motor with two speed settings and dual L.E.D. lights illuminate the work area. The innovative Assist Mode (A-mode) helps eliminate "screw cam-out" and "cross threading" by driving at low speed until tightening begins and is ideal for driving longer fasteners. It delivers 1,240 in.lbs. of Max Torque. At only 5-1/4 in. and 2.6 lbs. (with 2.0Ah battery sold separately), it is a fastening solution with superior comfort and handling. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18V LXT 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 Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Review: Puts screws in to the point that they break or go in - Nice and small and got power. best impact gun I have found

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this the model they carry at homedepot?**
A: Yes . I have them for my company. Brushless and very durable. I have Been using Makita since 1980.

**Q: Do the have it at Lowe’s**
A: Lowe's does not carry Makita, Home Depot does. I don't know if they carry this one. Call your local store.

**Q: What size bit is needed for this drill?**
A: I believe it will accept any drill bit up to a half inch in diameter.

**Q: How is this packaged? my order/replacement looks "used": taped on the outside, and no protection inside. just the bare tool rubbing itself on the box.**
A: Yes it has extra tape on the outside to prevent it from opening. Mine shipped in the bare makita box. The tool was in the boxes with spacers/holders. I think it was also in a plastic bag but not completely sure.

Check the battery terminals for markings like grease and contact points to tell if a battery was ever inserted.
