Makita Oscillating Multi-Tools
Makita Oscillating Multi-Tools for Plunge Cuts and Detail Work
Makita oscillating multi-tools make flush cuts in door jambs, trim out drywall, scrape adhesive, and sand into corners. Cordless choices include the 12V max CXT MT01Z, 18V LXT XMT03Z, and the brushless sub-compact XMT04ZB with a StarlockMax interface. Corded users can pick the TM3010CX1 or TM3000CX5 kit. Most models come as tool only or as a kit with battery and charger.
What to Look For
- Blade interface. StarlockMax models such as the XMT04ZB take Starlock accessories for fast, tool-free blade swaps.
- Size and weight. The CXT and sub-compact LXT tools are easier to hold overhead and inside cabinets.
- Power source. Corded kits suit long sanding sessions. Cordless tools go anywhere on the job.
