The Makita XBU02Z 18V X2 LXT® (36V) Brushless Cordless Blower is a professional-grade outdoor power tool designed for landscapers, contractors, maintenance crews, and homeowners seeking powerful cordless performance without the noise, emissions, and maintenance of gas-powered equipment. Powered by two Makita 18V LXT® Lithium-Ion batteries (sold separately), the blower delivers 36V performance while remaining compatible with the Makita LXT® battery platform.
Equipped with a Makita-built BL™ Brushless Motor, the blower produces up to 473 CFM air volume and 120 MPH air velocity, providing the power needed for clearing leaves, grass clippings, dust, and debris from driveways, sidewalks, lawns, parking lots, and job sites. The electronically controlled brushless motor optimizes battery efficiency for longer runtime, increased power output, and extended motor life.
A 6-stage air volume and velocity selection dial combined with a variable speed trigger allows users to match airflow performance to specific applications. The lock-on button supports continuous operation during extended cleanup tasks, while dual LED battery indicators provide convenient battery charge monitoring.
Designed with operator comfort in mind, the blower features an ergonomic in-line fan design for improved balance and handling. The lightweight construction, rubberized soft-grip handle, and 3-stage telescoping nozzle help reduce fatigue and improve user control during prolonged use.
For durability in demanding environments, the XBU02Z incorporates Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), engineered to enhance resistance against dust and moisture exposure. Integrated Star Protection Computer Controls™ help protect the tool and batteries against overload, overheating, and over-discharge for reliable long-term performance.
With cordless convenience, professional airflow performance, and compatibility with the extensive Makita 18V LXT® system, the XBU02Z is an ideal solution for residential, commercial, and professional outdoor cleanup applications.
