Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE that includes the 36V (18V X2) LXT® Brushless Couple Shaft Power Head. With zero emissions, lower noise and maximum versatility, the Power Head is a welcome solution for a range of trimming and cutting applications. It’s powered by two 18V LXT® batteries (sold separately) for maximum performance and run time without the hassles of gas and without leaving the 18V battery platform.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dyn-expand dyn-show\"\u003eThe Power Head is compatible with a variety of optional couple shaft attachments, with a lever style lock system for quick tool-less installation and replacement. It can be used with multiple attachments for trimming, edging, cultivating, and brush cutting (sold separately).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dyn-expand dyn-hide dyn-show\"\u003eMakita’s efficient BL™ Brushless motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. With no carbon brushes, the Makita BL™ Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life. For added protection, the Electronic Torque Control turns the motor off if the rotation speed suddenly slows down or stops, and the overheat warning system turns on an indicator light and is engineered to automatically stop the motor. Added features include a variable speed trigger, and reverse (clockwise) rotation system that allows the operator to quickly clear the brush cutter head of entangled weed and grass.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dyn-expand dyn-hide dyn-show\"\u003eIt features Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ is a protective seal inside the tool, and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dyn-expand dyn-hide dyn-show\"\u003eIt’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion system, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V Lithium-Ion batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dyn-expand dyn-hide dyn-show\"\u003eFor improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls™.

For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT® and Compact Lithium-Ion batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"dyn-expand dyn-hide dyn-show\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e FEATURES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul-features\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eBL™ Brushless motor delivers up to 9,700 RPM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003e3-speed options (Low: 5,700 RPM, Medium: 8,200 High: 9,700 RPM) for power management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eVariable speed trigger switch for controlled cutting speed\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eCompatible with a variety of Makita couple shaft attachments for various applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eLever style lock system allows for quick tool-less installation and replacement of attachments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eExtreme Protection Technology (XPT™) engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eEquipped with Star Protection Computer Controls™ to protect against overloading, over-discharging and over-heating\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eZero emissions and reduced maintenance; no need for gas or oil mixing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003e3-year limited warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"dyn-expand\"\u003eOnly use genuine Makita batteries and chargers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECHNOLOGY\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"tech\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"logo-div img-fit-width\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Star Protection Computer Controls™\" align=\"left\" border=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.makitatools.com\/apps\/cms\/logo\/02569622-f1b6-4936-bc26-0bd05f1405d2_starprotection_l_500px.png?trim.threshold=80\u0026amp;trim.percentpadding=10\u0026amp;w=100\"\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"tech-description\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMakita cordless tools are engineered for industrial applications, and for added protection during the most demanding jobs Makita created STAR Protection Computer Controls™. STAR is communications technology that monitors conditions during use, allowing the tool and battery to exchange data to protect against overloading, overdischarging and overheating. If STAR detects conditions that threaten to overload, overdischarge or overheat the tool or battery, the tool will automatically stop. At that time the user can either restart the tool, change or charge the battery, and put the tool back to work. When you slide a Makita 18V LXT® battery with the STAR symbol onto a Makita tool that has either the STAR symbol or a yellow terminal, you are benefitting from STAR Protection Computer Controls™.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSPECS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"sub-list column-styles\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eShaft Type : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMulti-tool attachment\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eNo Load Speed (var. 3 spd.) : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e0 - 9,700 \/ 0 - 8,200 \/ 0 - 5,700 RPM\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBattery : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e2X 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eOverall Length : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e39-3\/4\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eNet Weight (with battery) : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e9.8 lbs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003ePower Type : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eCordless\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eUser Type : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eFarm\/Ranch and Occasional User\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eForm Factor (LXT) : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eX2\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eMotor Type : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eBrushless\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eShipping Weight : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e10.6 lbs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cspan class=\"spec-name\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eUPC Code : \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\" style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003e088381-850728\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"sub-list column-styles\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"sub-list column-styles\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"spec-value\"\u003e\u003ci class=\"fas fa fa-chevron-right\" aria-hidden=\"true\"\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e INCLUDES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"sub-list column-styles\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.makitatools.com\/products\/details\/125516-5\" class=\"makita-link\"\u003e(1) Trimmer Shoulder Strap (125516-5)\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"sub-list column-styles\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"ul-features\"\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Makita","offers":[{"title":"36 V","offer_id":51497230401850,"sku":"XUX01Z","price":364.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0950\/2579\/1290\/files\/product-media-357389.png?v=1776942423","url":"https:\/\/louiswilliams.com\/products\/makita-36v-18v-x2-lxt-brushless-couple-shaft-power-head-tool-only","provider":"Louis Williams \u0026 Sons","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
