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 V LXT Lithium-Ion brushless string trimmer (model XRU11M1). With zero emissions, lower noise and considerably less maintenance, the 18 V X2 cordless string trimmer is a welcome solution for landscapers. It features an efficient Makita BL motor for longer runtime, increased power and speed and longer tool life. The kit includes an efficient rapid optimum charger and an 18 V LXT 4 Ah battery which reaches a full charge in only 40 min - the fastest charge-time in the category for less downtime and increased productivity. The efficient brushless motor delivers up to 6,000 rpm for faster cutting. The XRU11Z is equipped with automatic torque drive technology, which automatically shifts from 4,000 to 6,000 rpm depending on the density of the application. There are three-speed options (4,000/5,000/6,000 rpm), allowing users to match the speed to the application. On the high setting, users will get up to 30 min under load while using an 18 V LXT 4 Ah 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 of entangled grass and weeds. The XRU11Z accepts industry standard M8x1.25 LH spindles. The XRU11M1 features Makita extreme protection technology (XPT). XPT is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. 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.
