{"product_id":"makita-xbu02z","title":"Makita XBU02Z — 36V (18V X2) LXT® Brushless Blower, Tool Only","description":"\u003cp\u003eLandscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE that includes the 36V (18V X2) LXT® Brushless Blower. With zero emissions and lower noise, the 18V X2 (36V) Cordless Blower is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. It’s powered by two 18V LXT® batteries (sold separately) for maximum power and run time, but without leaving the 18V battery platform. With the efficient Makita BL™ brushless motor, the blower delivers longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. \n\nMakita’s efficient BL™ Brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. With no carbon brushes, the Makita BL™ Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life. When powered by two 18V 5.0Ah batteries, the efficient brushless motor delivers up to 28 minutes of run-time on dial setting #3 on a single charge.\n\nThe XBU02Z 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.\n\nIt’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.\n\nFor 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® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSound pressure rating of 61 dB(A); measured per ANSI B 175.2 standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMakita-built motor produces a maximum air velocity of 120 MPH\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e6-stage air velocity\/volume selection dial with variable speed control trigger\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelivers up to 28 minutes of run time at 15,800 RPM using two 18V LXT® 5.0Ah batteries (batteries not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eZero emissions and reduced maintenance; no need for gas or oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion batteries deliver the power and run time for gas powered demands without leaving the 18V LXT® platform (batteries not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact and ergonomic design at only 36-5\/8” long\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeighs only 9.0 lbs. with batteries (batteries not included) for reduced operator fatigue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFeatures Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) which is engineered to provide increased dust and water resistance in harsh job site conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstant start-up; simply load two 18V LXT® batteries and the blower is ready to use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDual L.E.D. battery charge indicators show charge level for each 18V LXT® battery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn-line fan design provides better tool balance and improved ergonomics\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRubberized soft grip provides increased comfort on the job\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-stage telescoping long nozzle for user convenience\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLock-on button for continuous operation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConveniently located hole on housing bottom for easy storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEquipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMakita technology delivers category-leading charge time so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger (battery and charger sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries with a Star symbol (batteries sold separately)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e3-year limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOnly use genuine Makita batteries and chargers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eMax.
