## Description

From the manufacturer Makita DDF083Z DDF083Z Capacity Maximum in steel 13mm Maximum in wood 36mm Chuck capacity ¼” hex Maximum tightening torque (S/H) 23/40 Nm DDF083Z 18V Li-ion LXT Brushless Drill Driver – No batteries included Ultra-compact length of 124mm for those hard to reach spaces The DDF083Z cordless Drill Driver is powered by 18V Li-ion battery (not included) and has variable speed control by trigger to deliver 500 up to 1,700 rpm for a wide range of drilling and fastening applications. The brushless motor eliminates carbon brushes enabling the motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life and generates less heat build-up. The motor is electronically controlled to optimise battery energy use for up to 50 per cent longer run time per charge. The Drill Driver has 2 mechanical gears, high speed mode for speedy drilling in light duty applications and low speed mode for heavy duty applications requiring high torque. The DDF083Z has 20 clutch settings and drill mode for added fastening control, electric brake, forward / reverse rotation and LED job light to illuminate the work area. A convenient ¼” hex chuck for quick bit changes. Please Note Any accessories shown are not necessarily supplied as standard equipment.

Review: Compact, powerful drill driver with excellent control - This brushless drill driver is extremely well made and performs brilliantly for its size. It’s compact and lightweight, making it ideal for working in tight spaces, yet it still delivers plenty of power for drilling and driving tasks. Control is excellent and it feels very balanced in the hand. The brushless motor runs smoothly and efficiently, and battery life is impressive when paired with LXT batteries. Build quality is exactly what you’d expect, with a solid and professional feel throughout. Overall, an excellent drill driver that’s reliable, powerful, and well suited to both trade and DIY use.
Review: Fanstastic drill - Needed to replace my Bosch IXO Screwdriver which I recently burnt out on a job, and opted for this. While it is a little bit bigger, costs more and would still need an accompanying battery and charger (more cost), this trade-off is well worth the robustness and power capability from a still relatively small driver, which ultimately saves me time and money at the end of the day. Makita is a well known, quality brand so I'm sure you could find similar items by other brands if cost is an issue, nonetheless, if you are screwing a lot of equipment in to place, and in particularly tight spaces (such as in my case) then this is a god send over the otherwise powerless compact "screwdrivers". Also don't be mistaken by the size and shape, this is a drill driver so it has a clutch and therefore you set the torque to prevent over-tightening; in contrast to an impact wrench which would probably tear the screw through your equipment and then the frame. This doesn't include the other multitudes of uses this item has being much more powerful and durable. Recommended this drill to anyone.
