Extra Information

This is the 3,0-Plus set, supplied with 2 x BP 18 Li 3,0 C battery packs, a TCL 6 rapid charger and a Systainer³ SYS3 M 187.
The CXS 18 is designed as a compact 18V drill that stays light, easy to handle and impressively strong in daily work.

Pro Tip

Keep the CENTROTEC chuck fitted for fast-moving assembly work, then swap to the keyless chuck when using standard cylindrical drill bits.
Set the torque on a test piece before repetitive screwdriving to get cleaner, more consistent fastening results.
Use the compact C-shape design to your advantage in cupboards, carcasses and other confined spaces where larger drills feel awkward.
If you regularly work close to edges or need repeat depth control, add the optional Festool eccentric adapter or depth stop to expand the drill’s capability.
