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 36V (18V X2) LXT® Brushless String Trimmer Kit (XRU15PT). With zero emissions, lower noise and considerably less maintenance than gas-powered string trimmers, the 36V (18V X2) LXT® 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. It includes two fast-charging 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries and an efficient 18V Dual Port Rapid Optimum Charger.The String Trimmer 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. Bring rich sound to wherever the job takes you with the versatile and durable 18V LXT®/12V max CXT® Lithium-Ion Cordless Bluetooth® Job Site Speaker (XRM08B). It has one auxiliary port for MP3 compatibility and one USB port for charging mobile devices. For maximum versatility it can be powered by Makita 12V max CXT® or 18V LXT® Li-Ion batteries, or with the AC adapter jack (optional). For improved operation in harsh job site conditions the XRM08B features water and dust resistant construction, with protective bumpers for added durability. STAR Protection is communication technology that allows tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating.
