Makita DG002G 40v XGT Cordless Brushless Earth Auger Drill

The Makita DG002G is a cordless brushless earth auger drill for boring holes in ground conditions, including for fence post installation, drainage works and tree planting. It uses a 40V XGT battery, which is not included.

A direct-attachment spindle connects auger bits, while the two-speed gearbox and variable speed trigger let the output be matched to ground conditions. Reverse mode helps release jammed bits. The mechanical torque limiter is designed to prevent aggressive kickbacks if the bit encounters buried obstructions such as rock or roots.

Automatic Torque Drive Technology adjusts speed and torque during operation. The drill also has soft start, twin LED lights with pre-glow and afterglow, an electric brake and a battery protection circuit against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. The electric brake stops the spindle when the trigger is released.
