With lower noise and no emissions, the 18V LXT® Brushless Cordless Blower,(DUB363PG2V 6.0Ah Kit) is designed allowing the blower to tackle demanding applications, comparable to gas blowers. The blower easily converts from blower to vacuum/mulcher (vacuum kit and batteries sold separately). The Makita-built BL™ Brushless Motor delivers speed up to 120 MPH and up to 473 CFM. Makita’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. Makita’s Brushless Motors run cooler and more efficiently for longer life.A cruise control lever provides management of power and run time. The power switch can be locked-on for continuous operation. A long nozzle with 3-stage telescoping action provides convenience.
