Product Overview

This Makita XGT earth auger is engineered for professional ground drilling where power, control, and durability matter. Automatic Torque Drive Technology (ADT) adjusts speed and torque during operation for efficient performance, while the reversing switch helps extract an auger bit that becomes jammed in high-resistance soil such as clay. Designed for jobsite reliability, it features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) for improved dust and water resistance, plus soft start, electric brake, and twin LED lights with preglow/afterglow for improved control and visibility. The auger bit adapter supports compatibility with popular engine earth auger bits for added versatility.
