Using the Makita XUX02SM1X6 is a breeze. First, charge the 18V LXT® Lithium - Ion 4.0Ah Battery using the included charger. Once charged, insert the battery into the 18V LXT® Brushless Power Head. To attach a tool, use the lever - style lock system to quickly secure it. For the string trimmer, load the line using the rapid - loading bump and feed trimmer head in just three easy steps. When using the pole saw, extend it to reach those hard - to - get branches. The articulating hedge trimmer can be adjusted to 13 different angles for efficient trimming. The blower is great for cleaning up debris. Remember to use the high/low speed button to manage power and run - time, and the variable speed trigger for better control. Always use genuine Makita batteries and chargers. After each use, clean the tool to remove dust and debris. Store it in a dry place. If you're working in wet or dusty conditions, the XPT™ technology will help protect the tool. The tool, battery, and charger come with a 3 - year limited warranty, but take good care of them to ensure long - lasting performance.
