18 in 40 V Lithium-Ion Chain Saw (Kit)

The Makita 40V Max XGT® Brushless Cordless 18" Chain Saw meets the demand for high-power, cordless alternatives to gas equipment, offering zero emissions, lower noise, and less maintenance. Powered by a single 40V Max XGT® battery, its efficient brushless motor delivers power equivalent to a 42cc gas chain saw, with XGT® digital communication optimizing performance for up to 2X longer sustained power under heavy load. Key operational features include a variable speed trigger, high chain speed (0-5,020 FPM), and Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT®) for safety. For user convenience, it has a tool-less chain adjustment, a large, visible oil reservoir with adjustable automatic lubrication, a rubberized soft grip top handle, and an auto power-off function to extend battery life. Furthermore, the saw is built with Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) for superior dust and water resistance, cementing its role as a durable solution within the XGT® system.
