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 LXT brushless chain saw kit (model XCU11SM1). With zero emissions, lower noise and considerably less maintenance, the XCU11 is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications. Convenience features include a large oil filling port with a viewing window that allows the operator to easily add and check the bar oil level, a rubberized soft grip top handle that is engineered for the user to more easily apply even cutting pressure and a compact body with rear handle design for easy maneuverability. 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.
