XMT04ZB 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Sub-Compact Brushless Cordless StarlockMax® Multi-Tool, Tool Only | Tool only, brushless motor

It’s strong and powerful. Very smooth and comfortable to use. It’s a little expensive, and I don’t know why tools have different tiers of the same tool. But this is a nice tool, and it does cut fast and stable.

I've used this tool for a few months now, bought in April of 2024 (this year). It's worked very well, I had to buy better blades to get its full potential, Diablo not cheap chinese crap. I have used the diablo blades to cut through track on the foundation, this thing warms up a bit after 10 minutes of heavy use, but it powers through the metal studs no problem and it doesn't get hot, just warm. If you have concrete dust on the ground you'll wanna wear a respirator because this thing vibrates the dust into the air then the fan kicks it high so you breathe it, it's also extremely loud (when cutting metal, but is no louder than a drill when used on wood or drywall), but that's fine with ear protection. Nice clean line, too. I'm going to get one of these, and a hammer-drill for my sister as a basic toolkit that imo everyone should own, even renters. It's an oscillating sander, and a great saw. I had the old Makita oscillating multi-tool and this is indeed worth the money. Reduced vibration, I can use my 6a batteries so I get better battery life, better grip, nicely weighted. It's a quality tool. Looking forward to the OSHA attachment to for my rotary hammer, so the dust won't be an issue again.

I had no clue a oscillating tool could be so fun to work with, and quiet. Compared to my kobalt, dewalt, and Milwaukee, this is a dream to use. Vibration is so minimal, and it's literally half as loud as the others (oh, all of which have been thrown in trash).

Man oh man where to begin this tool is like god it’s self the vibration on the thing is non exciting the built of it is like a 1989 ford freaking ranger it’ll last for the rest of your life makita makes a quality tool that will last longer than your wife. It cuts through anything and I mean anything like it was butter with a 5.0 it’ll last all day long the weight is not to heavy it is a bit bulky but it fits perfectly in my hand I’m a big dude so if you have little baby hands I don’t recommend this is a great tool with amazing specs and great handling I would recommend buying into this brand if you’re already on the platform it’s better. It being brushless and black it looks super nice and cool. The speed adjuster is super easy to use and easy to find.

The Makita XMT04ZB is everything you want in an oscillating multi-tool. It’s surprisingly quiet, delivers plenty of power, and feels rock-solid in the hand. The build quality is exactly what you’d expect from Makita—durable, reliable, and clearly made for serious work. Whether you’re cutting, sanding, or scraping, it handles every task with ease. Friendly reminder: this model uses the Starlock blade system, so be sure to grab the right blades if you’re upgrading from a standard-fit tool. A great addition to any tool kit. Highly recommended.

Bought this to replace a Makita XMT02 feeble oscillating tool whose hammer head snapped loose inside. I'd wondered why its instructions said "Use only 3A battery". Turns out the higher amp batteries cause the tool to work harder/faster and that over stresses the feeble hammer. This NEW XMT04 model is 500% superior design to the old tool as well as the slightly cheaper XMT-03, still available. Anti-Vibration-Technology in the new design suppresses nearly all shaking that oppresses most oscillation tools, that leads to intense, painful, carpal user fatigue. I can use the XMT-04 for eight hours straight, going through a pile of 3A, 4A, and 5A Makita and clone batteries, without ANY wrist pain! This new tool ONLY fits Starlock blades, however. That includes the longer Plus blades and Max blades, too. But personally, unless you need the longer REACH a Max blade offers, for some tough assignments, you might be better served to use less expensive Starlock (standard) blades and concentrate on TEETH style to help do your task. AVT also protects your batteries from vibration damage; especially important if you use clone power cells. BEST size LXT batteries for this tool are 4A and 5A units. 6A tends to overheat if used in long stretches, and may stress the tool unnecessarily. 3A works fine but power-on time is less. XMT-04 includes NO blades or adapters, or carry case, by default.

This is my first multi-tool. As a concept, it is fantastic. It isn't compact by any means. It pretty much is the same size as other brands of tools. The controls are good enough - No complaints. I already have an investment in Makita 18V items,; over the years I have owned many Makitas. They offer a great product. I liked the quick release feature, and the low vibrations. My one reservation is the Starlock Max system. It is certainly easy to use, but finding different "blades" or attachments locally isn't easy. Just know this and order from Amazon. So, if you plan ahead on your job and have time, order the blades. If you need something "now" -- good luck. They may not be available. It wont deter me enough to get rid of the tool.

Great tool Quiet Honest seller Item arrived on time

Muy buen árticulo y un excelente precio solo se tarda mucho en llehar

Gewohnte Makita Qualität in schwarz. Baugleich mit dem DTM52z den es bei uns gibt. Aber hier in schwarz gehalten. Kam gut verpackt ohne Beschadigungen an auch wenn die Reise viele Kilometer beinhaltete. Guter Preis. Wichtig ist aber zu wissen, die Garantie des Multitools greift hier nicht, da es aus den USA stammt.

Gehäuse nicht so passgenau wie bei meinem identischen alten Gerät… funktioniert allerdings einwandfrei!!
