Makita XBU03Z 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Blower, Tool Only

The 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Blower (XBU03Z) by Makita offers a welcomed solution for clean-up applications with its zero emissions and lower noise features. Powered by one 18V LXT battery (sold separately), this blower is part of the expanding LXT system, allowing users to utilize the same battery across a range of Makita solutions.

Featuring a compact and ergonomic design, the blower weighs only 6.5 lbs. and measures 32-1/2" long. Equipped with Makita's BL Brushless Motor, it runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life, delivering impressive speeds of up to 116 MPH air velocity and a full 459 CFM. The brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use, providing up to 50% longer run time per battery charge compared to similar non-brushless tools.

The electronic controls in the XBU03Z efficiently utilize battery energy, matching the changing demands of the application to provide increased power and speed when needed. A convenient cruise control lever allows for effective management of power and run time, further enhancing the tool's versatility.

Makita's Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is incorporated into the XBU03Z, providing a protective seal against water and dust intrusion, ensuring improved operation in harsh conditions. As part of Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world's largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries, the blower benefits from the system's fast charging capabilities, allowing for more time working and less time spent on the charger.

To ensure optimal tool performance and extended battery life, Makita has implemented its proprietary Star Protection Computer Controls. This communication technology allows the tool and battery to exchange data in real time, monitoring conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.

The XBU03Z can be powered by both Makita 18V LXT and Compact Lithium-Ion Batteries, providing increased versatility for users. The in-line fan design of the blower contributes to better tool balance and improved ergonomics, making it comfortable to use for extended periods.

In summary, the 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Blower (XBU03Z) from Makita offers a compelling solution for clean-up tasks, with its zero emissions, low noise, and impressive performance capabilities. The tool's advanced features, including the brushless motor, electronic controls, and Extreme Protection Technology, combined with the benefits of Makita's 18V Lithium-Ion System, make it a valuable addition to any professional or DIY toolkit.
