What should you check before buying?

Check whether your existing or planned Makita tools belong to the XGT 40V system. This set is made for XGT 40V max machines and is not suitable for the LXT 18V system.

Think about how intensively you use your tools. For very long jobs, additional batteries may be useful. For getting started or for expanding your kit, the set with 2x 4.0Ah batteries offers a solid base.
