Product Information

The Makita XCU08 cordless top handle chainsaw has the chops to stand up against traditional chainsaw powerhouses like Stihl and Husqvarna with some cost savings. It has the power to legitimately replace gas saws in the same class, though there is a bit of a weight penalty.

The UC002G and UC003G are part of Makita’s extensive cordless outdoor range, which includes top-handle chainsaws, rear-handle chainsaws and pole saws, as well as shears, hedge trimmers and blowers.Makita-built Outer Rotor BL™ Brushless Motor direct-drive system provides power of a 30cc gas chain saw This top-handled chainsaw is only available to users holding a certificate of competence that must be produced before the product is supplied. PLEASE NOTE; this is a naked unit - no batteries or charger is included, please see the accessories tab for these items. Sightlines have also been added to the chainsaw to improve visibility, helping the operator to make more accurate cuts, while a helpful battery indicator light alerts the operator when there is only a 10 per cent charge remaining. Another visible oil indicator comes on when the 200 ml oil reservoir needs refilling.

Right out of the gate, I was impressed by the cutting speed of this little saw. A big part of it is due to the high chain speed and, of course, a good sharp chain.XPT - Xtreme Protection Technology. Optimal protection against dust and splash water even under harsh conditions
