About This Product

Corded power meets cordless convenience with the 18-Volt LXT Brushless Compact Router Kit, model XTR01T7. The 18-Volt LXT Router has an efficient Makita BL brushless motor for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. The kit includes 2 efficient 18-Volt LXT 5.0 Ah batteries, and each reaches a full charge in only 45 minutes the fastest charge-time in the category for less downtime and increased productivity. The XTR01T7 is engineered for a full range of cabinetry and woodworking applications. It has a variable speed control dial (10,000 30,000) RPM) to match the speed to the application, with electronic speed control to maintain constant speed under load and soft start feature for smoother start-ups and better accuracy. Convenience features include the smooth rack-and-pinion fine depth adjustment system for more precise settings, dual LED lights to illuminate the work surface, and a quick release cam lock system for convenient depth adjustments and base removal/installation.

In addition, the XTR01T7 easily connects to Makita vacuum cleaners with the optional dust nozzle for improved dust extraction.

                  I purchased this planer to take down the bottom of a door that was hitting a floor vent. I had never used a planer before and this was relatively easy to figure out. I set the depth of the plane and practiced on some scrap 2x4. The planer never hesitated or stalled out, and only took a couple of passes to finish the door. The door itself created a lot of dust and in retrospect I should have hooked it up to the shop vac.

                  I got this multitool as part of a combo with Makita Batteries. It works great from my tests. I use it to sand wooden fence.

                  Excellent! I definitely recommend it. It's very useful and long-lasting. The best product, the best battery. You won't find anything better than this. I highly recommend it

                  Powerful and Convenient Sander
                  The Makita 18V LXT Cordless Random Orbit Sander offers excellent flexibility with its cordless design. The variable speed control is handy for different tasks, and it delivers a smooth, professional finish. The sander feels durable and powerful. Just be aware that it doesn’t include a battery or charger, so you’ll need to have those from other LXT tools. Overall, it’s a reliable and effective tool for both DIY and professional use.

                    tried to router out a window but kept shutting off or going super slow and burning the bit. it's appears to be well built with a lot more aluminum and steel instead of plastic. but zero power.

                      I love it!
                      This Makita oscillating multi-tool is a beast! I went through 2 DeWalt OMT’s prior to this, both within 6 months. The 2nd one died the first day I used it. I liked the trigger on the DeWalt, the Makita is a simple on/off switch, with variable speed selector. But I got used to it within the first day. Actually have come to prefer it - it offers better control. It was worth the switch over - this Makita is 3 times the tool the DeWalt ever was! 3x bulkier and heavier (which I like and prefer), 3x the precision, and 3x more powerful! Feels like I could use this OMT as a hammer, it’s so solid. Hope Makita continues to build all their products heavy duty, as with this tool. It cuts through the side of a house like butter (stucco, plywood, wire, and all). Just love it!! Can’t recommend it enough!

                        Bought two of these, one came dirtier than the previous one.
                        Do they all come as dirty as mine? I bought two of them and they both came dirty, looks used.
