The 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless String Trimmer (XRU02Z, tool only) is a versatile solution for landscape cutting and trimming, but without gasoline or a cord. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18-Volt LXT series, the world’s largest cordless tool line-up powered by an 18-Volt Lithium-Ion battery. The Makita 18-Volt LXT battery has the fastest charge time in its category, so the battery spends more time working and less time sitting on the charger. The XRU02Z delivers 7,800 RPM and up to 45 minutes of run time on a single charge of the 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion 3.0 Ah battery (sold separately). It has several advantages over gas powered trimmers: the XRU02Z has zero emissions and reduced maintenance, with no need for gas or oil. For users, the tool is always ready to use: simply load a fully-charged 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion battery and get to work. Versatility features include a telescoping shaft to adjust the length of the tool, a 180° rotating head with 5 adjustable positions, an adjustable loop handle and more. It weighs only 6.4 lbs. with battery (sold separately).

It does a good job trimming light weeds and grass, but does not cut through heavy weed stems. It is weaker than my old corded Toro string trimmer.

Light weight, the head is easy to string and the life of the battery last enough to work in the yard quite some time. The fact the head rotates and adjust up and down makes it perfect for use anywhere.

Just the right size for my small yard, but what I really like to the interchangeable lithium battery system. I have so many tools I can use.
