![]() The Makita DTM51Z Multi Tool is also compatible with the Makita 18 volt LXT lithium ion range of batteries, so will easily fit into a system of tools that all use the same type of power source (ideal if you own other Makita branded power tools). If you use 5Ah batteries, one will normally last most of the day onsite, unless you're cutting or grinding larger areas. The length of time the battery will last before needing to be recharged very much depends on the capacity of the battery and the load of the work you are doing. ![]() The convenient quick release blade change and tough metal gearbox both make for a comfortable usage experience. The robust metal gearbox, with six speeds between 600 oscillations per minute, allows for cutting, grinding and polishing in many different materials, at many different angles and in previously hard to reach areas.īeing a relatively new type of tool, it does take a bit of time to work out the best techniques, angles and blades to use, and it is certainly worth getting a variety of fittings to practice with before letting yourself loose on the final task. With the ever-increasing range of blades and fittings available for these tools, they are rapidly becoming another ‘must-have’ item for many trades. The Makita DTM51Z 18V Cordless Multi Tool is built to work and is as happy being used for occasional DIY tasks at home or all day on a busy site (which is where I use it). How Did the Makita DTM51Z 18V Cordless Multi Tool Perform When Tested? ![]() There is also a battery capacity indicator, which shows the amount of charge left in the battery at the push of a button, meaning you never have to worry about leaving a job unfinished due to the power cutting out without warning. Many other models of multitool require a hex wrench to remove the blade, but the Makita DTM51Z eliminates this inconvenience. The Makita DTM51Z has a lever-style, toolless quick release blade changing facility, and the blade can be set at 12 different angles across a full 360 degrees, giving you full functionality no matter what you're working on. The Makita DTM51Z 18V blade can oscillate over a 3.20 angle at between 600 cycles per minute, meaning you can expect fast, clean results. Rubber coated grips help give a firm hold on the tool in many different working positions. The multi tool itself has a soft start, which means that it speeds up on activation, and is activated via a separate sliding switch that stays in the on position and does not need to be held. The Makita DTM51Z 18V Cordless Multi Tool has a six speed motor and full metal gearbox selectable via a rotating switch on the side of the tool.
