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 18 V X2 LXT? (36 V) brushless 16 in chain saw (model XCU04PT). With zero emissions, lower noise and considerably less maintenance, the XCU04PT is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications. It's powered by two 18 V LXT? batteries for maximum power, speed and runtime, but without leaving the strongly-preferred 18 V 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 XCU04PT has a 16 in guide bar and the Makita-built Outer Rotor BL? motor direct-drive system motor with variable-speed delivers 0 to 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 18 V LXT? Lithium-Ion batteries and the saw is ready to use. Convenience features include a "toolless" 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 18 V Lithium-Ion system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18 V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18 V 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 discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18 V LXT? and compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
