Powerhead is perfect for landscapers and contractors for the most demanding applications. Head has a powerful BL™ brushless motor to deliver up to 9700 RPM for faster cutting. Powerhead works well with a variety of Makita couple shaft attachments for various applications. The lever-style lock system assists in rapid tool-less installation and replacement of attachments. High/Low-speed button assists the operator in easy power and run-time management. The reverse (clockwise) rotation system of the power head facilitates the operator to clear the brush cutter head of entangled grass and weeds quickly. Powerhead has Makita’s Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™), a protective seal inside the tool. This technology increases tool life and operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. The Star Protection Computer Controls™ technology allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions while in use to safeguard against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. The tool works well with Makita 18 Volt Lithium-Ion slide-style batteries. Powerhead assures zero-emission, minimal maintenance, and no requirement for gas or oil mixing.
