Makita DKP181Z 18V 82mm LXT Brushless Planer Bare Unit

Makita DKP181Z 18V 82mm LXT Brushless Planer Bare Unit

The Makita DKP181Z 18V planer features a brushless motor which allows around 30% more run-time over conventional brushed motors and produces less heat and requires no maintenance. With an 82mm width cutting bed and a maximum cutting depth of 3mm.

ATD (automatic torque drive) changes the cutting speed according to load conditions for optimum planing, and the soft start motor prevents snatching on startup.

Also part of the Makita Auto-start Wireless System (AWS) system – with the optional wireless unit (sold separately), a wireless connection can be made between the tool and an AWS supported vacuum for wirelessly enabling the vacuum to operate when the tool trigger is engaged.

Suitable for building and construction type applications, with a high power brushless motor providing power equal to that of AC models. Ideal for various trades such as builders, carpenters, shop fitters, cabinet makers, kitchen fitters and many more.
