Hammer Drill Metabo KH 18 LTX BL 28 Q 1000 RPM SDS Plus 18V

The Metabo KH 18 LTX BL 28 Q is a cordless combination hammer designed for hammer drilling, standard drilling and chiselling. Powered by an 18V battery and a brushless motor, it delivers high drilling performance and long service life while remaining compact and relatively lightweight for a battery-powered tool. The tool includes an integrated extraction interface for dust-controlled drilling when used with a compatible dust extractor.

Advantages

Brushless motor technology provides higher efficiency, greater power and longer life compared with brushed motors. The integrated Metabo VibraTech (MVT) damping system reduces vibration exposure during operation. Quick-change Metabo Quick system allows switching between an SDS Plus hammer chuck and a keyless chuck for versatile bit use. Electronic features such as Vario-Tacho-Constamatic full-wave electronics, soft start and optional reduced speed/impact energy support controlled starts and work in softer materials. Safety functions include mechanical decoupling plus sensor-controlled shut-off to minimise kick-back if a bit jams. An LED work light improves visibility at the drilling site.

Suitable for

• Hammer drilling into concrete and masonry

How to use

Select the required function (hammer drilling, drilling or chiselling) and fit the appropriate bit or chisel. Insert a charged 18V battery from the compatible battery platform and set the desired speed or select the reduced speed/impact energy mode if starting a hole or working in softer materials. For dust-free drilling, attach a compatible compact dust extractor to the integrated extraction interface and follow the extractor manufacturer’s instructions. Start the tool with the trigger and use steady pressure without forcing; allow the tool and hammer action to do the work. If the bit binds, release the trigger immediately and let the tool stop; the mechanical decoupling and sensor-controlled shut-off reduce kick-back risk.

Recommendations

Use appropriate personal protective equipment (eye, ear and respiratory protection) when hammer drilling. Match drill bits and chisels to the material and application. For dust-sensitive environments, always use a compatible dust extractor with the integrated extraction interface and follow local dust-control regulations.
