FAQs
What is the difference between Makita DTM50Z and DTM51Z?
The DTM50Z has an LED job light to illuminate the work area. The DTM51Z does not have this feature. The DTM50Z uses a hex key to change the blade and accessories whilst the DTM51Z uses a tool-less blade change system.
What does LXT mean on Makita tools?
The “LXT” in Makita tools stands for “Lithium-Ion eXtreme Technology”. The LXT series is known for delivering extended battery life, faster charging times, and overall enhanced performance compared to traditional power tool batteries.
Is the DTM50Z brushless?
While Makita is increasingly incorporating brushless motors into their tools (especially their higher-end models), the DTM50Z is one of their older models that still uses a brushed motor.
Do Makita 18V batteries fit all Makita tools?
Yes! Makita 18V batteries are compatible with a wide range of 18V tools. This is one of the advantages of the Makita LXT system. Newer Makita 18V batteries (like the popular 4.0Ah, 5.0Ah, and 6.0Ah batteries) are usually backward compatible with older Makita 18V tools. This means you can use a new battery on an older tool.
