Product Detail
Details: This Makita CRU03Z string trimmer comes with a comprehensive package. It includes a bump and feed trimmer head, a DC4001 AC power supply and charger (PDC1200), a PDC1200 40V max ConnectX 1,200Wh portable power supply (battery only), and a GRU01M1 40V max XGT 15' string trimmer kit (4.0Ah). Key Features: The Makita-built BL™ brushless motor offers power on par with a 30cc gas string trimmer. It's eco - friendly, with no gas, emissions, oil mixing, or pull starts. The external battery connection enhances balance by shifting the battery weight off the trimmer and allows for longer run time when connected to a battery backpack (sold separately) via a cable. The steel drive shaft minimizes vibration. The Automatic Torque Drive Technology mode automatically adjusts the speed from 4,000 - 6,000 RPM for better power management. The variable speed trigger switch gives you full control over the cutting speed. The reverse rotation function helps you quickly clear the trimmer head of tangled grass and weeds. With three speed options (Low: 4,000 RPM, Medium: 4,600 RPM, High: 6,000 RPM), you can manage power as needed. The IPX4 weather - resistant construction ensures long - lasting durability. It has a bump and feed trimmer head loaded with 0.080' line. The Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) makes it more resistant to dust and water in tough job site conditions. The Star Protection Computer Controls™ safeguard the tool against overloading, over - discharging, and over - heating. It also comes with a 3 - year limited warranty. Landscapers are increasingly looking for cordless alternatives to gas - powered outdoor equipment, and Makita's 36V Brushless String Trimmer (CRU03Z) is the answer. With zero emissions, less noise, and lower maintenance compared to gas trimmers, it's a great choice. The efficient BL™ brushless motor provides long run time, high power, and speed, and a long tool life. The 17” cutting swath boosts productivity. When paired with the LXT and LXT X2 Portable Backpack Power Supply (PDC01, sold separately), you can double the run time. It can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium - Ion Batteries with Star Protection.
Using the Makita CRU03Z string trimmer is easy. First, connect the battery to the trimmer or use the power supply and charger. Make sure the battery is fully charged before use. You can choose from three speed options (low, medium, or high) according to the task at hand. The variable speed trigger switch gives you control over how fast the trimmer cuts. If grass or weeds get tangled in the trimmer head, use the reverse rotation function to clear them quickly. When using the trimmer, keep it at a proper angle to the ground for effective cutting. Remember to wear safety gear like gloves and goggles. For maintenance, clean the trimmer after each use to remove dirt and debris. Check the drive shaft regularly for any signs of wear. Keep the battery in a cool, dry place when not in use. If you're using the battery backpack, make sure it's properly connected to the trimmer via the cable. And don't forget, this trimmer comes with a 3 - year limited warranty, so if you encounter any problems, reach out to the customer service.
