Makita XCU06Z 18V LXT Brushless Cordless 10 Top Handle Chain Saw Review

I recently had a chance to try out the Makita XCU06Z 18V LXT Brushless Cordless 10 Top Handle Chain Saw, and Im thrilled with the results. This powerful and lightweight saw has made my life much easier when it comes to pruning, trimming, and limbing.

The Makita XCU06Z features a Makita built Outer Rotor BL Brushless Motor direct drive system that provides power equivalent to a 22cc gas chain saw. With this motor, I was able to get up to 175 cuts in 2x2 cedar with an 18V LXT 5.0Ah battery battery not included . The torque boost mode is especially helpful for cutting through dense material.

I was also impressed by the convenience of the captured bar nut and lateral chain tensioning for quick operation and maintenance. These features make it even easier to use this saw compared to other models. Additionally, the compact top handle design is ideal for maneuvering in tight spaces or overhead work.

The light weight of only 7.19 pounds is another feature that makes this saw so easy to use. Even after using it for long periods of time I didn t feel any fatigue or strain in my arms due to its light weight nature. It also has a product dimension of 8.47 x 15.16 x 8.98 inches which makes it easy to store and transport around when needed.

Overall, I highly recommend the Makita XCU06Z 18V LXT Brushless Cordless 10 Top Handle Chain Saw for anyone who needs a powerful and lightweight saw that can handle pruning, trimming, and limbing tasks with ease. I was extremely pleased with how easy it was to use this saw for tough jobs and how durable it was even after many uses over time.
