Get outside with Outdoor Adventure, a new series of cordless products that operate within the LXT system. Outdoor Adventure Products feature advanced technology, delivering maximum performance and efficiency for the outdoors. Makita offers hundreds of products within the 18V LXT system so you can create your own adventure. Blow away dust and debris with the Outdoor Adventure 18V LXT Blower (ADBU05). It reaches fast speeds of 219 MPH and features a Makita-built high-torque motor with three speeds. The blower weighs just 4.1 lbs. (with battery, sold separately) with a more compact design at 20-3/8” long and an ergonomic shape for reduced operator fatigue. It also features low noise levels and zero emissions for a greener outdoors. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls. Star Protection is a communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside. It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.
