Portable Electric Tools: Makita VC4710 Xtract Vac
The new Makita Xtract Vac˙ is at the center of Makita's growing dust collection system, and with an extensive range of features the VC4710 claims to be the top performer in the jobsite vacuum category.
Power and Performance with Less Noise and Less Weight
The VC4710 is powered by a 12-amp motor that generates 135 cfm of suction power and 92 inches of water lift. The vacuum delivers an operating sound level of only 59 dB(A).
Precision lightweight motor components and more efficient air ducting allowed engineers to reduce the weight to only 27 pounds.
For improved stability, the VC4710 has wide-set urethane rear wheels and enlarged steel caster front wheels to create a lower center of gravity for improved stability and easier movement.
On-Board Tool-Activated Outlet, Automatic Filter-Cleaning System
The Xtract Vac includes an on-board tool-activated outlet that starts and stops the vacuum with power tool usage. The VC4710 also features an Automatic Filter Cleaning System with blow-back feature, which is timed at set intervals to maintain filter performance.
Efficient Main Filters with Optional HEPA Filters for Improved Dust Collection
The VC4710 features two flat main Nano filters engineered to maximize the container volume and improve efficiency, while capturing 99.95% of particles size 2 microns and larger. The optional Certified HEPA main filter captures 99.97% of particles size .3 microns and larger, which meets or exceeds the Department of Energy's standard for HEPA filters.
Included standard is a 1-3/8" x 16' Anti-Static Hose, which is ideal for woodworkers in a shop environment.
