Product Overview
The Makita 18V X2 (36V) LXT Brushless Earth Auger XGD01Z is a cordless digging solution designed for landscaping, fencing, construction, planting, and soil-sampling applications. It combines two 18V LXT batteries to deliver 36V power and uses a Makita-built brushless motor engineered to provide performance comparable to a 36cc gas-powered earth auger.
Because the XGD01Z is a bare tool, batteries and a charger are not included. This makes it a practical choice for users who already own compatible Makita 18V LXT batteries and chargers.
Key Features
36V (18V X2) LXT Power: Uses two 18V LXT lithium-ion batteries for cordless 36V-class performance.
Brushless Motor: Delivers high-performance digging without the fuel, oil mixing, emissions, or pull-starting associated with gas-powered augers.
8-Inch Drilling Capacity: Designed to drill holes up to 8 inches wide and 41 inches deep, when used with the appropriate auger bit and extension.
Two-Speed Operation: Low speed runs from 0–350 RPM, while high speed runs from 0–1,400 RPM, allowing the operator to balance torque, speed, and runtime.
Automatic Speed Change Technology: Automatically adjusts drilling speed and torque according to the load for more consistent performance.
Reverse Switch: Helps remove the auger bit from high-resistance soil or when the bit becomes difficult to extract.
Torque Limiter: The built-in clutch can disengage the gears if the bit binds, helping reduce potential gear damage.
Metal Gear Housing: Provides added durability for demanding drilling applications.
Built-In LED Light: Illuminates the drilling area for improved visibility.
XPT™ Extreme Protection Technology: Helps provide increased resistance to dust and water in challenging jobsite conditions.
Star Protection Computer Controls: Helps protect the tool and battery against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.
Designed for Multiple Applications
The XGD01Z is suitable for jobs where repeated ground holes are required, including:
Fence post installation
Landscaping and planting
Large-scale planting projects
Construction work
Soil sampling
General post-hole digging
Its cordless operation also eliminates the need for gasoline, engine maintenance, and extension cords, making it convenient for outdoor work sites.
