The Makita XCU06T is the complete kit version of the XCU06Z, pairing Makita's most compact LXT chainsaw with a BL1850B 5.0Ah battery and a DC18RC rapid optimum charger. The 18V brushless motor drives a 10 in. bar and chain at 1,640 FPM. At just 6.2 lbs. tool only, it is designed for pruning, trimming, and overhead cutting tasks that benefit from a light, maneuverable saw.
What is included in the XCU06T kit?
The XCU06T includes the XCU06Z 10 in. compact chainsaw, one BL1850B 5.0Ah 18V LXT battery, and one DC18RC rapid optimum charger. Everything needed to start cutting is in the box.
How light is the XCU06T?
The XCU06T tool body weighs 6.2 lbs. without a battery. With a 5.0Ah battery installed, it weighs approximately 8.0 lbs. — still very light for a cordless chainsaw.
Is the XCU06T a single-battery or dual-battery tool?
The XCU06T uses a single 18V LXT battery — it is not part of the dual-battery X2 LXT system. This keeps the tool compact and lightweight for pruning applications.
Can the XCU06T be used for cutting firewood?
The XCU06T's 10 in. bar can cut logs up to about 8 inches in diameter. While it can handle light firewood splitting preparation, the XCU03PT or XCU04PT with longer bars are better suited for regular firewood processing.
Is the battery in the XCU06T compatible with other Makita tools?
Yes. The BL1850B 5.0Ah battery works with all Makita 18V LXT Star-symbol tools, making it a versatile addition to any LXT collection.
