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 18V X2 (36V) LXT® Brushless Cordless String Trimmer Kit (model XRU15PT). With zero emissions; lower noise and considerably less maintenance than gas-powered string trimmers; the 18V X2 (36V) LXT Cordless String Trimmer is a welcome solution for landscapers. It's powered by two fast-charging 18V LXT Batteries for maximum power and run time; but without leaving the strongly-preferred 18V battery platform. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. In addition; the string trimmer rotates in the same counter-clockwise direction as professional-grade trimmers; and uses industry standard spindles (M10x1.25 LH) for added convenience. Model XRU15PT is a kit and includes two fast-charging 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries and an efficient 18V Dual Port Rapid Optimum Charger.
