MAKITA ANNOUNCES NEW LXT BRUSHLESS COMMERCIAL LAWN MOWER

The new 18V X2 (36V) LXT Lawn Mower (XML09) features an aluminum deck.

July 14, 2020, La Mirada, CA – Makita U.S.A., Inc., the innovation leader in outdoor power equipment, power tools, and accessories, has launched the new 18V X2 (36V) LXT^® Brushless Cordless 21” Self-Propelled Commercial Lawn Mower (XML09).

The commercial lawn mower is powered by two 18V LXT Batteries and a Makita-built brushless motor. Users have the option to insert two additional LXT Batteries for extended run time; when the first two batteries need a charge, users can quickly turn the battery-selector switch to the second pair of batteries and keep working. When using four 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries, the mower will cut non-stop for up to 2 miles.

A commercial-grade aluminum deck resists corrosion and is durable for demanding applications, without extra weight. The self-propel function makes mowing effortless with variable speeds from 1.5 MPH to 3 MPH. This lawn mower offers mulching, bagging and rear-discharge options for debris.

Other features include IPX4 weather-resistant construction and a single lever cutting height adjustment of optional cutting heights between 1-1/4” – 4”. The XML09 has durable handles for loading on and off trucks, therefore do not fold. The exclusive blade design reduces drag and maintains speed when cutting.

Technology

For added durability, Makita’s Extreme Protection Technology (XPT^™). XPT is a series of integrated seals engineered to channel away dust and water for increased durability. Makita^® Products equipped with XPT are engineered for increased durability and longer tool life.

Quiet Mode reduces noise by providing constant speed control. Quiet Mode sets RPMs to a certain speed, so there are no sudden increases in speed. With a constant speed, the noise from the mower also remains at a constant level. This is a benefit for cutting grass in a residential area, on a school campus, or other settings that are resistant to excessive noise.

Benefits of Cordless Outdoor Power Equipment

Makita LXT Cordless Power Equipment eliminates the hassles of gas with zero emissions, lower noise, and reduced maintenance. The cordless lawn mowers operate at a lower noise level, providing user comfort and preventing a disruption for neighbors or nearby businesses. With no need for gas or oil, the battery-powered lawn mowers require less maintenance and have zero emissions.
