If you need to take care of your yard but worry about disturbing your neighbors, you’re going to love the Makita XUXO1M5PT String Trimmer! The BL™ Brushless Motor is just as powerful as it is quiet, so you can get more done without a lot of noise. It also runs 50% longer than most other non-brushless devices.

The 18V LXT™ Lithium-Ion Batteries can be fully charged in 45-minutes so you can get out into your backyard faster.

This string trimmer also features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), which means that you can trim weeds in even the harshest conditions.

The Star Protection Computer Controls™ enables the battery and powerhead to communicate to avoid overheating.

The torque control is electric and will cut the power to the motor if the rotation speed slows down or stops completely. Plus, there is an optional reverse rotation system which helps to clear debris quickly.
