Landscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless ope, including the 18v x2 (36v) lxt® brushless 16" chain saw (model xcu04z, tool only). With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the xcu04z is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications.
- It's powered by two 18v lxt® batteries (sold separately) for maximum power, speed and run-time, but without leaving the strongly-preferred 18v battery platform
- And with the efficient makita outer rotor brushless motor with direct drive system, users get high power efficiency that is equivalent to a gas chain saw
- The xcu04z has a 16" guide bar and the makita-built outer rotor bl brushless motor direct drive system motor with variable speed delivers 0-3,940 fpm for increased cutting speed
- It has zero emissions and reduced maintenance: there's no engine oil to change, no spark plug to replace, and no air filter or muffler to clean
- And there's no need to drain the fuel for storage
- Simply pick it up, load two 18v lxt® lithium-ion batteries, and the saw is ready to use
- Convenience features include a "tool-less" chain adjustments, a front hand guard engineered to actuate chain brake when engaged, an electric brake for maximum productivity, and more.It's part of makita's expanding 18v lithium-ion system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18v lithium-ion slide-style batteries
- Makita 18v lithium-ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger
- For improved tool performance and extended battery life, makita created star protection computer controls
- Star protection is communication technology that allows the star protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-di
