Makita GCU06T1 40V Max XGT 5.0Ah Chainsaw Kit

Landscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE including the 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless 18" Chain Saw. With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the GCU06 is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications.It's powered by one 40V max XGT battery for maximum power, speed, and run-time. With the efficient Makita brushless motor, users get high power efficiency that is equivalent to a 42cc gas chain saw. The digital communication within XGT optimizes performance to provide up to 2X longer sustained power under heavy-load applicationsIt features a variable speed trigger and a high chain speed (0-5,020 FPM) for improved cutting performance and is equipped with Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT) which electronically turns off the motor if the rotation of the attachment is suddenly forced to stop.Convenience features include tool-less chain adjustment for convenient operation and maintenance, adjustable automatic chain lubrication with a large oil reservoir, and a large oil filling port with a view window that allows the operator to easily add and check the bar oil level. It also features a rubberized soft grip top handle that is engineered for the user to easily apply more even cutting pressure.
