The Makita® 18V LXT® Brushless Vacuum, Trigger w/Lock (XLC08ZB, Tool Only) is a compact and powerful cordless vacuum with strong suction for fast and efficient cleaning. It features two times more suction power for faster cleaning*.

The XLC08 can be used with trigger mode or slide switch mode for ease and convenience. The Makita-built brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently; delivering up to 90 Watts of power.

Convenience features include a compact, ergonomic design that reduces operator fatigue and a thermoplastic hand grip for longer life and a more comfortable feel. It also features a bagless cloth filtration system that allows for easier cleaning and quicker debris disposal, as well as increased storage capacity for longer time between waste disposal. It weighs only 3.0 lbs. with battery (sold separately) for reduced operator fatigue.

It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT® system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™. Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
