The XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander is a versatile tool that brings increased efficiency and mobility to woodworking. As a tool only, the XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander runs for up to 40 minutes on a single charge (battery sold separately) and offers three speed settings: 7,000/9,500/11,000 OPM. The settings are easily modified with a one-touch electronic control switch, allowing for speed optimization based on the task at hand.

Boasting a large 1/8” random orbit action, the XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander is designed for effective sanding, rapid material removal, and a swirl-free finish. The pad brake minimizes free-spin to refine the overall finish while a unique control system adjusts the pad speed on start-up.

The XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander, part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion series, is powered by an 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style battery. Known for their swift charge times, Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries ensure the tool spends more time working and less time on the charger.

Equipped with Makita’s Star Protection Computer Controls™, the XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander offers improved tool performance and extended battery life. This system facilitates real-time data exchange between the tool and battery, safeguarding against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.

Ergonomically designed, the XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander ensures enhanced operator comfort. It features an effective through-the-pad dust collection system for a cleaner work environment, and a dust-sealed switch and bearing for prolonged tool life. Additionally, the sander uses quick-change 5” (8-hole) hook-and-loop abrasive paper for maximum versatility.

Makita’s proprietary Rapid Optimum Charger (sold separately) interacts with the battery’s inbuilt chip during the charging process. This communication helps to optimize battery life by precisely managing current, voltage, and temperature. Further enhancing charging efficiency, the charger includes a built-in fan for cooling.

The XOB01Z Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless 5” Random Orbit Sander sander is compatible with Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries bearing the Star symbol. Backed by a 3-year limited warranty, the tool underscores Makita’s commitment to quality and reliability. Remember, for optimum performance, only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers.
