Makita Vacuums
Makita Vacuums and Dust Extractors
Makita vacuums run from handheld cleanup tools to HEPA dust extractors that connect to sanders and saws. Compact stick vacuums come on 12V max CXT, 18V LXT, and 40V max XGT, with trigger or push button controls and bag or cyclonic collection. For dust extraction, there is the 18V LXT XCV11Z 2 gallon HEPA wet/dry unit, 18V X2 backpack and dry extractors, and the corded VC4210L and VC4710 HEPA wet/dry extractors. The DRC200 robotic vacuum and XLC07 canister vacuum fill other niches. Cordless dust blowers such as the XSA01Z and GSA01Z are listed here too.
What to Look For
- Cleanup or extraction. Stick vacuums suit floors and vehicles. Dust extractors connect to tools to capture dust at the source.
- HEPA filtration. HEPA models trap fine dust from drywall, concrete, and sanding.
- AWS. The VC4210L can start automatically with AWS-capable cordless tools.
- Wet or dry. Wet/dry units handle spills. Dry-only extractors are for dust.
