Makita XAU03Z 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 8″ Extendable Articulating Pole Saw, Tool Only
Makita XAU03Z Description
The 18V LXT® 8″ Extendable Articulating Pole Saw (XAU03) is a welcome solution for a range of trimming and cutting applications. With zero emissions, lower noise and maximum versatility, the pole saw delivers maximum performance and run time without the hassles of gas and without leaving the 18V LXT battery platform. The split shaft easily adjusts length from 6 ft. to 9 ft. for a reach of up to 14 ft. allowing access to hard-to-reach branches
The brushless motor delivers fast cutting speeds and the XAU03 can perform up to 500 cuts in 2×2 cedar with a fully charged 18V LXT® 5.0Ah battery (battery not included). There are nine angle settings with 120° of working range for precision cutting.
Convenience features include a branch hook, translucent bar oil tank with large opening, and a soft grip handle for improved access to different angles. The 8” Pole Saw shaft also extends up to 9 ft. for a total reach of up to 14 ft.
The XAU03 features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT is a protective seal inside the tool, engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components.
It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
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. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.
