Makita has added two new disc cutters to its XGT battery range. The CE003G and CE004G XGT disc cutters are both powered by Makita’s XGT 40VMax battery system to deliver optimal cutting depths and speeds to make light work of many demanding applications.

The CE003G offers a maximum cutting depth of 88mm at 6,600rpm and the CE004G has a maximum cutting depth of 121mm at 5,000rpm, with a 230mm and 305mm blade diameter respectively.

The machines also feature a rotating wheel guard that can be positioned to suit working posture. This, paired with a light body weight (The CE003G body weighing just 7.4kg when fitted with a BL4080F 8.0Ah battery and the CE004G at 7.7kg when fitted with a BL4080F 8.0Ah battery) and a double handle design, makes both models comfortable and easy to manoeuvre. Likewise, the anti-vibration housing with built-in damper spring helps to achieve a low vibration rate for each at 3.0 m/s2 (CE003G) and 3.8 m/s2 (CE004G) at the left handle.

Unlike petrol engine models, the new cordless machines start reliably, even in oxygen-deficient conditions, without any emissions or exhaust gases, making them suitable for use in any location – including indoors and underground.

To improve user safety, the machines feature active feedback sensors to shut down the tool in the event of kickback or a sudden slowing down of the blade rotation. They also have a safety lock-off button to prevent accidental start up and operators can also choose to connect a water supply to aid dust suppression.
