Landscapers are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line-up of cordless OPE, including the 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless String Trimmer (model XRU11M1). With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the 18-Volt X2 cordless string trimmer is a welcome solution for landscapers. It features an efficient Makita BL brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. The kit includes an efficient Rapid Optimum Charger and an 18-Volt LXT 4.0Ah battery which reaches a full charge in only 40-minutes the fastest charge-time in the category for less downtime and increased productivity. The efficient brushless motor delivers up to 6000 RPM for faster cutting. The XRU11Z is equipped with Automatic Torque Drive Technology, which automatically shifts from 4000 RPM - 6000 RPM depending on the density of the application. There are 3 speed options (4000/5000/6000 RPM), allowing users to match the speed to the application. On the high setting, users will get up to 30-minutes under load while using an 18-Volt LXT 4.0Ah battery. Additional features include a full 11-3/4 in. cutting swath, an easy-loading bump-and-feed trimmer head, and reverse rotation that allows users to quickly clear the head. The XRU11Z accepts industry standard M8x1.25 LH spindles. This promotion comes with a XHU02Z 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless 22 in. Hedge Trimmer, Tool Only.
