Makita is expanding its cordless outdoor power equipment lineup, and the 36V (18V X2) LXT® 21-inch Lawn Mower Kit (XML10CM1) is a great addition. This mower offers zero emissions, low noise, and less maintenance, making it an excellent choice for efficient grass cutting. The ergonomic plastic deck is lightweight, reducing the push force needed and making it easy to transport. It comes with user - friendly features like quick height adjustments, a large 2 - bushel grass collector, and folding handles for compact storage. With its 3 - in - 1 design, you can mulch, bag, or use rear discharge as per your needs. The Lawn Mower is equipped with Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ has a protective seal inside the tool, directing water and dust away from key internal components, allowing it to work well in harsh conditions.

It's part of Makita's extensive 18V LXT system, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium - ion slide - style batteries. Makita 18V batteries have fast charge times, so they spend more time in use and less time on the charger. Makita's Star Protection Computer Controls™ enhance tool performance and extend battery life. This communication technology enables real - time data exchange between the tool and battery, monitoring conditions to prevent overloading, over - discharging, and overheating. The tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT and Compact Lithium - Ion batteries with the star symbol indicating Star Protection. Included in the kit are a 36V (18V X2) LXT® 21 - inch Lawn Mower (XML10Z), four 18V LXT® Lithium - Ion 4.0Ah Batteries (BL1840B), an 18V LXT® Lithium - Ion Dual Port Charger (DC18SH), a 21 - inch Lawn Mower Blade (191V96 - 5), a Grass Catcher Bag (162A26 - 7), a Mulching Plug (413945 - 7), a Lock Key (643535 - 4), and a Grass Catcher Bag Frame (162C45 - 5).
Using the Makita XML10CM1 lawn mower is a breeze. First, make sure the batteries are fully charged. Insert the batteries into the mower as instructed. You can adjust the cutting height easily using the single lever to your desired setting between 1 - 1/4 inches and 4 inches. Then, start the mower and begin cutting your grass. You can choose to mulch, bag, or use rear discharge depending on your preference. When you're done, turn off the mower and remove the batteries. For storage, fold the handle to save space. Here are some important notes. Only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers to ensure the best performance and safety. Avoid using the mower in heavy rain as it has IPX4 weather - resistant construction but not waterproof. To maintain your mower, clean the grass catcher bag regularly. Check the tires for proper inflation and the blade for sharpness. Also, keep the tool and batteries in a dry place. The mower, battery, and charger come with a 3 - year limited warranty, so if you face any issues, contact Makita support.
