There is growing demand for cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE, including the 36V (18V X2) LXT® 16” Top Handle Chain Saw, Tool Only (model XCU09Z). With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance than gas-powered chain saws, the XCU09Z is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications. The compact top-handle design makes it ideal for the professional tree care industry. Powered by two 18V LXT® batteries (sold separately) for maximum power, speed and run-time, the XCU09Z is easy to start by simply loading the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries and powering on. The XCU09Z has a variable speed trigger and high chain speed (0-3,940 FPM) for increased cutting speed, with torque boost mode for cutting dense material.
