The Makita XAD03PT combines the brushless XAD03Z right angle drill with two 5.0Ah batteries, a dual-port rapid charger, and a bag. Powered by two 18V LXT batteries in series for 36V effective output, it drills up to 6-1/4 in. holes with hole saws and 4-5/8 in. holes with self-feed bits. Automatic Speed Change technology and a built-in clutch protect the drivetrain from overload.
How does the XAD03PT produce 36V from 18V batteries?
The XAD03PT uses Makita's X2 LXT technology, which connects two 18V LXT batteries in series to create an effective 36V power supply. No separate 36V battery is required.
What is the hole saw capacity of the XAD03PT?
The XAD03PT supports hole saws up to 6-1/4 in. diameter, self-feed bits up to 4-5/8 in., and ship auger bits up to 2 in., making it suitable for structural rough-in work.
Does the XAD03PT have overload protection?
Yes. A built-in clutch disengages the drivetrain if the bit binds during low-speed drilling, preventing gear damage. The Automatic Speed Change system also continuously adjusts RPM and torque to match drilling conditions.
What is the weight of the XAD03PT with batteries?
With both 5.0Ah batteries installed, the XAD03PT weighs 14.0 lbs. The tool is 21-1/4 in. long, so a stable two-handed grip is recommended for sustained drilling.
What charger is included with the XAD03PT?
The kit includes a dual-port Rapid Optimum Charger (DC18RD) that can charge both 18V LXT batteries simultaneously, minimizing downtime between drilling sessions.
Is the XAD03PT brushless?
Yes. The BL Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize energy use, matching torque and RPM to the demands of large-diameter drilling. This extends runtime and tool life compared to a brushed design.
