Makita’s dust extractor features new AWS technology

Makita launched the in-demand DSP600 Twin 18v Brushless Plunge Saw in 2017. Now, the same model, but featuring a 36v motor and the Makita Auto-Start Wireless System (AWS) has landed.

AWS technology allows the new DSP601ZJU plunge saw to automatically connect to the compatible Makita dust extractor saving the effort of manually switching it on.

The new DVC864LZ Twin 18v (36v) Brushless L-Class Dust Extractor is the first extractor to feature the new AWS technology.  It has maximum sealed suction power of 9.8kPa with the powerful 36v motor system producing a maximum air flow of 2.1m³/min.  This is a dry type vacuum with HEPA filter that removes 99.0% of dust with Limit Value for occupational exposure >1.0mg/m³ which means this extractor can be used for processes involving mica, china clay and gypsum.  Up to 10 tools can be paired to the DVC864LZ via AWS at the same time.
