Your cart is empty.The 18V LXT® Brushless Cordless Cut-Out Tool (XOC02Z, tool only) is a powerful and efficient solution for drywall contractors. The Makita-built BL™ Brushless motor delivers 32,000 RPM for faster cutting, providing the cutting performance and power of a corded tool without the hassles of a cord. The XOC02Z has a large cutting capacity, cutting up to 2x drywall. Other features include built-in twin L.E.D. lights to illuminate the work area, vent slots to direct air and debris away from the operator, a soft start for smoother start-ups, and an electric brake for maximum productivity. It accepts 1/8” and ¼” bits. A large and conveniently located shaft lock button provides fast bit changes. On-board bit change capabilities eliminate the need for a wrench. Also, the cut-out tool offers tool-less depth adjustments. For efficient dust extraction, the XOC02Z is AWS-capable with Auto-Start Wireless Transmitter (198901-5, sold separately). Auto-Start Wireless System (AWS™) utilizes Bluetooth® technology for wireless power-on/off communication between tool and optional dust extractor. Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) is a protective seal inside the tool, designed to improve a tool’s operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. 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.

Plenty of power using a 5.0 amp hour battery and lightweight. Was installing slim LED recessed lights in several rooms. Didn't want to use a drywall jab saw to cut out the holes or a hole saw attached to a drill. Wanted something with dust management. This made quick work of the ceiling's drywall, and the dust shroud worked great when attached to a vacuum. The LED lights on the end of the unit are nice, but a good deal of the light will be blocked if you were to use the depth gauge.Another thing to note are the components that are not listed on Amazon's "included components" list . This tool also comes with:- Makita 193449-2 dust extracting base- Two 1/8 inch drywall cutting bits- 1/4 inch collet sleeve

I use it daily in my work to make cuts in wooden panels, I can say that it is a good tool since it cuts easily and does not drain the battery quickly. Something that I really liked in its grip and its easy way to change the cutting blade

First job I used it for was installing a dozen 6" ceiling lights, that for some reason required a 6 1/4" opening???, making my usual 6" hole saw obsolete. Already had the AWS dust extractor, ordered this and made a 6 1/4" jig. Considering how quickly this thing cuts, plus the fact there's no cleanup, or need for a helper with a shop vac with an extractor, the cut out portion of the job worked went smooth, and exponentially faster. The tool earned it's spot on my essentials list.

If you’re a contractor or even a diy’er this is a tool you must have. Malita makes some of the best tools out there.

This has exceeded my expectations. Been use the simple had sheetrock saw for years. I really wish I would have gotten this sooner. I also picked-up the screw gun that takes the screws on a strip. Easily 50%-75% faster than before. I love my Makita tools.
