GYUPPA automatic self-cleaning filter of our unique design allows for constantly high suction power. Easy filter cleaning simply by tapping dust off of prefilter. Quiet cleaning because Damper and Prefilter make no nois

HEPA FILTER
HEPA FILTER

A high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filter can remove 99.97% - 99.99% of airborne particles that are equal to, smaller or larger than 0.3 microns in size (EPA). The efficiency is rated based on the worst level possible, so think about it as 99.97% or BETTER.

High Water Resistance Technology
High Water Resistance Technology

High water resistance technology, allows the user to use the tool even if it is wet, taking care of the engine and its components, designed for outdoor work tools or garden care.

Impact XPS®
Impact XPS®

Impact XPS® is Makita's premier line of bits and fastening accessories. Impact XPS¨ Bits are expertly engineered to withstand the hardest hitting impact drivers, drills and screwdrivers. The Impact XPS¨ Insert and Power Bits are designed with superior fitment, torsion zone technology and a unique steel composition for up to 90-times longer performance life than standard bits. The line also includes insert bit holders, magnetic nutsetters, sockets, and socket adapters for a full range of fastening applications.

ImpactX™
ImpactX™

ImpactX™ is an impact-rated bit built specifically for the demands of the professional contractor. Professionals require commercial duty bits that can endure the force from high-volume screw driving applications with high torque impact drivers. Standard screwdriving bits are brittle and fit poorly in fasteners, and in applications with high torque impact drivers this losing combo quickly leads to broken bits. ImpactXª hits back with improved fit in fasteners and increased performance with high torque impact drivers. Precision machined (not forged) tips ensure full contact, while performance-optimized and heat-treated S2 steel not only provides more flex but also more durability than standard, brittle bits.

Lithio-ion Technology Tools
Lithio-ion Technology Tools

Lithio-ion technology tools use batteries with a cooling system that does not allow the battery to warn up, besides providing a fast charge. (the charging time varies according to the battery«s amperage). Intelligent charging system, charging and discharging is complete, increased battery life.

MAGNESIUM
MAGNESIUM

Framers and carpenters need cutting solutions with power and performance, not extra weight. Makita circular saws with Magnesium components are engineered for less weight with superior balance and durability. Magnesium circular saws deliver consistent performance with less weight for cutting sheet and dimensional lumber.

MM4® 4-STROKE ENGINE
MM4® 4-STROKE ENGINE

MM4® 4-STROKE ENGINE High performance, compact and lightweight. Low emission of pollutants. Easy operation and low maintenance cost. Does not require mixing and low noise level

SJS® Super Joint System
SJS® Super Joint System

SJS® Super Joint System is a mechanical clutch system that helps prevent motor and gear damage in grinders if the wheel is forced to a stop. The drive shaft from the armature to the drive gear is spring-loaded during normal grinding load. If binding occurs or the wheel is forced to stop, the spring is compressed allowing the drive shaft to slip. The gear tension is minimized while the armature continues to rotate, which helps prevent motor burn-out. SJS¨ is a mechanical clutch system, not elecronic, so the grinder does not require a re-start if the wheel binds.Ê

SPEED SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGY
SPEED SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGY

SPEED SUPPRESSION TECHNOLOGY Automatically reduces the vibration of the tool when there is no workload, decreases the amount of vibration in the hands of the user during the operation of the tool. Minimizes the deflection of the chisel when placed at the exact point to break.

STAR Protection Computer Controls™
STAR Protection Computer Controls™

Makita cordless tools are engineered for industrial applications, and for added protection during the most demanding jobs Makita created STAR Protection Computer Controls™. STAR is communications technology that monitors conditions during use, allowing the tool and battery to exchange data to protect against overloading, overdischarging and overheating. If STAR detects conditions that threaten to overload, overdischarge or overheat the tool or battery, the tool will automatically stop. At that time the user can either restart the tool, change or charge the battery, and put the tool back to work. When you slide a Makita 18V LXT¨ battery with the STAR symbol onto a Makita tool that has either the STAR symbol or a yellow terminal, you are benefitting from STAR Protection Computer Controlsª.

SUPER JOINT SYSTEM
SUPER JOINT SYSTEM

SUPER JOINT SYSTEM The spring acts as a mechanical clutch, avoiding damage to the gears and possible risks. Elimination of jerking due to accidental disc lock during work. When the disc is blocked the user receives a jolt that can be dangerous because the machine makes a small bounce.
