The Makita Cordless Combo Kit 18V LXT DGA504 + DDF489 + DTD173 with three 5.0Ah batteries combines an angle grinder, a hammer driver-drill and an impact driver in a single portable set. Designed for construction and workshop tasks, this battery-powered kit allows cutting, drilling, driving and fastening without a direct mains connection. Including three high-capacity 5.0Ah batteries, the kit supports continuous work cycles and quick battery swaps to reduce downtime on job sites.
Advantages
This Makita 18V LXT set delivers the flexibility of three dedicated cordless power tools that share a common battery platform. The angle grinder provides high-speed cutting and grinding capability, while the hammer driver-drill combines drilling and light chiselling with variable speed control. The impact driver offers compact, high-torque fastening suitable for screws and bolts. Supplied with three 5.0Ah batteries, the kit improves productivity by extending run time and enabling uninterrupted workflow when swapping batteries. The cordless design reduces cable clutter and increases mobility on-site.
Suitable for
- Cutting and grinding metal, masonry or steel with the angle grinder
- Drilling holes in wood, metal and masonry with the hammer driver-drill
- Driving and fastening screws, bolts and fixings with the impact driver
- General renovation, carpenter, electrician and maintenance tasks
When it may not be suitable
This cordless combo kit is aimed at professional and demanding DIY use, but it may not fully replace heavy-duty corded or larger stationary machines for industrial-scale production or prolonged continuous heavy cutting under maximum load. For applications that require very long, non-stop operation without battery swaps or where specialized high-capacity machines are standard, a dedicated corded tool or higher-power equipment should be considered.

How to use
Charge each 5.0Ah battery with a compatible Makita LXT charger before first use. Fit the appropriate battery to the selected tool until it locks in place. For cutting and grinding, mount a suitable abrasive disc on the angle grinder and use protective guards and personal protective equipment. For drilling, select the correct drill bit, secure the workpiece and use the hammer function only where masonry or concrete requires it. For fastening, use the impact driver with the correct bit size and apply steady pressure while controlling speed and torque. Swap batteries as needed to maintain continuous operation and follow standard safety and maintenance procedures described in each tool’s manual.
What to consider before purchase
- Confirm compatibility with existing Makita 18V LXT batteries and chargers if you plan to expand your toolset
- Check the specific disc sizes, chuck types and bit compatibility for your intended tasks
- Consider required protective equipment (eye, ear and respiratory protection) for cutting, grinding and hammer drilling operations
- Assess whether the 18V LXT power level and 5.0Ah capacity meet the duration and intensity of your typical jobs
Usage recommendations
For reliable performance, rotate the three 5.0Ah batteries during work shifts to keep a charged spare available, follow Makita’s charging guidelines to maximize battery life, and perform regular inspection of consumables (discs, bits, and chucks) to ensure safe and efficient operation.
