Makita 18V X2 (36V) LXT Cordless 16in Top Handle Chain Saw Kit

Description

Generating 36V electric potential, the Makita 18V X2 Chainsaw Kit spins chain across storm-damaged canopy wood without gas fumes. Commercial tree climbers operate high in aerial buckets with instant throttle trigger response.

Bench Load Thermal Limits

Dynamometer load tests prove the brushless outer-rotor motor delivers chain speed up to 3,940 FPM without stalling under 12-inch pine cuts. Sensor telemetry indicates battery core heat remains under 135 degrees Fahrenheit when drawing power from two 18V LXT packs in series. Rail spread on the 16-inch bar measures under 0.0018-inch across 40 continuous cutting cycles.

Reinforced magnesium gear housings transfer motor torque squarely to the drive sprocket while dampening high-frequency mechanical vibration. Commercial tree services ready to buy Makita 18V X2 Chainsaw packages discover stable fleet pricing for a commercial top handle saw that shares battery platforms with trade tools. Built-in motor electronics cut power before excessive current can degrade the cell chemistry.

Key Features of Makita 18V X2 Chainsaw

Dual-battery architecture delivers high cutting speeds for aerial utility maintenance.

• Dual 18V battery inputs generate 36V brushless power matching gas cutting speed.
• The 16-inch sprocket nose guide bar carries 3/8-inch chain cleanly through mid-sized limbs.
• Torque boost mode temporarily increases power delivery to clear tough branch knots.
• Captive bar nuts stay locked flush to the sprocket cover during field chain tensioning.
• Top-handle tether ring provides a certified drop-prevention attachment point on climbing harnesses.

Canopy Realities Negative Filter

The balanced top-handle layout gives climbing arborists pinpoint precision when making flush collar cuts inside tight branch crotches. Do not buy this 36V top-handle kit for clearing ground windfalls or bucking 24-inch saw logs. Ground work demands rear-handle saw configurations to maintain proper two-handed leverage and torso stance.

Factory Warranty Delivery Manifest

The complete retail carton delivers the bare chainsaw, four 18V LXT 5.0Ah lithium-ion battery packs, a dual-port fast charger, a 16-inch bar, and a protective bar scabbard. Makita backs commercial purchasers with a 3-year limited warranty covering the brushless motor, electronic control circuits, and charging hardware.
