36V LXT Brushless 5.0 Ah String Trimmer (Bare Tool)

Makita is addressing the demand from landscapers for high-performance cordless outdoor power equipment by offering the 36V (18V X2) LXT® Brushless String Trimmer Kit (XRU15PT1). This trimmer serves as a superior gas alternative, providing zero emissions, lower noise, and less maintenance. It achieves maximum power and runtime by running on two 18V LXT batteries (36V), keeping it within the user's preferred 18V platform. At its core is an efficient, Makita-built Outer Rotor BL™ Brushless Motor with direct drive, delivering high power, increased torque, and up to 50% longer run time per charge than similar non-brushless tools. The tool uses electronic controls to efficiently match power and speed to the application's demands. Designed for professional use, it features a counter-clockwise rotation, industry-standard spindles (M10x1.25 LH), and Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) to channel water and dust for improved operation in harsh conditions. As part of the world's largest 18V LXT System, the trimmer and its fast-charging batteries are protected by Star Protection Computer Controls™, which monitors for and prevents overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.
