HEDGE TRIMMER AND THREE BACKPACK SPRAYERS

Makita is expanding the line of cordless OPE with equipment and tools engineered to be lighter in weight, have longer run times, with no gas, hassles, no emissions, oil mixing, or pull starts.

Makita is launching three 18V LXT® Backpack Sprayers that can be used with pesticides, insecticides, herbicides, fungicides, and fertilizers.

24” Hedge Trimmer

Makita is introducing the 18V LXT® Brushless 24” Hedge Trimmer (XHU09), featuring a 24” blade that delivers increased cutting capacity and a Makita-built brushless motor that provides faster cutting speeds of 4,000 SPM when set on High-Speed mode.

The dual-action, double-sided steel blade offers optimal performance and can cut through thick branches up to 3/4″ in diameter. Weighing up to 40% less than gas models and only 38″ long, the XHU09 is compact, ergonomic, and offers up to 45 minutes of run time with 18V LXT® 4.0Ah battery.

The XHU09 produces zero emissions, reducing maintenance needs such as oil changes, spark plug replacements, and air filter cleaning. All users need to do is load the 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion battery, and the trimmer is ready for use.
