Product Description
Details: This amazing kit includes a 18V X2 (36V) LXT® Brushless 16-inch chain saw (XCU04Z), a XTK01Z 36V (18V X2) LXT hot water kettle (tool only), four 18V LXT® Lithium-ion 5.0Ah batteries (BL1850B), four 18V LXT® Lithium-ion dual port chargers (DC18RD), a 16-inch saw chain (3/8” LP, .043”, E-00240), and a 16-inch guide bar (3/8” LP, .043”, E-00094). Features: The Makita-built Outer Rotor BL™ Brushless Motor direct-drive system offers high power efficiency, similar to a 32cc gas chain saw. With 'tool-less' chain adjustment, it's super convenient for operation and maintenance. The variable speed trigger and high chain speed (0 - 3,940 FPM) improve cutting performance. Two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion batteries provide power and performance without leaving the 18V LXT® platform. The built-in L.E.D. on/off switch has an auto power-off function, shutting the saw off during long delays to extend battery life. It has a low noise level and zero emissions for operator comfort. Weighing only 11.5 lbs. with batteries, it reduces operator fatigue. The adjustable automatic chain lubrication comes with a large oil reservoir, and the large oil filling port with a view window makes it easy to add and check bar oil. The rubberized soft grip top handle helps users apply even cutting pressure. It features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) for better dust and water resistance in tough job sites and is equipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and over-heating. It also comes with a 3-year limited warranty on the tool, battery, and charger. Remember to use only genuine Makita batteries and chargers.

Convenience features include tool-less chain adjustments, a front hand guard that actuates the chain brake, and an electric brake for high productivity. It's part of Makita’s expanding 18V LXT® System, the world’s largest cordless tool system with fast-charging 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita® 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries charge quickly, so they're ready to work more often. Star Protection Computer Controls™ improve tool performance and extend battery life by monitoring conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. The tool can also be powered by Makita® 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol for Star Protection.
Using the Makita XCU04PT1 chain saw is easy. First, make sure you've loaded two 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion batteries into the saw. The battery installation is straightforward, just slide them in until they click into place. Once the batteries are in, turn on the saw using the built-in L.E.D. on/off switch. You can adjust the speed of the saw using the variable speed trigger according to your cutting needs. When it comes to chain adjustment, you don't need any tools. You can easily adjust it for convenient operation and maintenance. During use, pay attention to the oil level in the large oil reservoir. You can check it through the view window on the large oil filling port. If the oil is low, add bar oil to keep the chain lubricated. Also, always hold the saw firmly with both hands, using the rubberized soft grip top handle for better control. After you're done using the saw, turn it off. The saw will automatically shut off if there's a long delay in operation to save battery life. For maintenance, keep the saw clean, especially after using it in a dusty or wet environment. Thanks to the Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), it can handle some tough conditions, but it's still a good idea to wipe it down. And don't forget to only use genuine Makita batteries and chargers. The Star Protection Computer Controls™ in the tool and batteries help protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating, but you should still avoid pushing the tool too hard for long periods. The tool, battery, and charger come with a 3-year limited warranty, so if you run into any problems, contact Makita for support.
