The Makita XBU02PT 18V X2 LXT (36V) cordless blower kit is a game - changer for landscapers and contractors. It comes with a Makita - built BL brushless motor that pumps out up to 473 CFM of air and reaches a max air velocity of 120 MPH. With a 6 - stage air velocity/volume selection dial and variable speed control trigger, you can easily adjust the power as needed. Two 18V LXT lithium - ion batteries give you the power and runtime of gas - powered tools, all while staying within the 18V LXT platform. It's eco - friendly with zero emissions and requires less maintenance as there's no need for gas or oil. Measuring at a compact 38 - 3/4 inches long and weighing only 9.9 lbs with batteries, it reduces operator fatigue. The Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) offers better dust and water resistance in tough job sites. The rubberized soft grip makes it comfortable to hold. There's a 3 - stage telescoping long nozzle for convenience and a hole on the housing bottom for easy storage. Just load two 18V LXT batteries and it starts instantly. The lock - on button allows for continuous operation. The 18V LXT 5.0 Ah battery BL1850B has an integrated LED battery charge level indicator, offers up to 65% more runtime per charge than the 3.0 Ah battery BL1830, and charges fully in 45 minutes or less. The dual - port charger can charge two 5.0 Ah batteries in just 45 minutes. Overall, this blower provides longer runtime, more power, and longer tool life, making it a great solution for clean - up tasks.
Using your Makita XBU02PT cordless blower is easy. First, make sure you have two fully - charged 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries. Insert them into the blower, and it's ready to start. You can adjust the air velocity and volume using the 6 - stage selection dial and the variable speed control trigger according to your cleaning needs. For continuous operation, press the lock - on button. When not in use, store it by hanging it through the hole on the housing bottom. As for maintenance, keep it clean from dust and debris. Thanks to the XPT technology, it has good dust and water resistance, but it's still a good idea to wipe it down after use. Check the batteries regularly. The 5.0Ah batteries charge in 45 minutes or less using the dual - port charger. Make sure to charge them fully before each use to get the best performance. If you notice any issues with the motor or other parts, contact Makita's customer service for assistance.
