The Makita XML02PTX1 is a 36V (18V X2) LXT brushless 18-inch self-propelled lawn mower kit bundled with four 5.0Ah batteries and a dual-port rapid optimum charger. The four-battery configuration provides maximum all-day run time for larger properties or extended mowing sessions without downtime. The XML02Z deck offers six cutting height positions from 1-1/8 to 3-3/4 inches and a brushless self-propelled drive system. Discontinued and replaced by the XML06 series.
What is the difference between the XML02PTX1 and XML02PT?
The XML02PTX1 includes four BL1850B 5.0Ah batteries vs. two in the XML02PT. With four batteries, you run two in the mower while the other two charge, allowing continuous all-day mowing on larger properties.
Is the XML02PTX1 discontinued?
Yes. The XML02 series is discontinued. The current equivalent is the XML06PTX1 (18-inch, 4 x 5.0Ah kit) for commercial use.
How does the XML02PTX1 handle hills and slopes?
The self-propelled brushless drive system helps on moderate inclines. For steep slopes, maintain a walking pace with the trimmer and follow mowing safety guidelines for slopes above 15 degrees.
What discharge options does the XML02Z support?
The XML02Z supports rear bag collection (bag included), mulching (mulch plug required, sold separately), and side discharge for high-volume cutting situations.
What replaced the XML02PTX1?
The XML06PTX1 is the current Makita 18-inch 36V X2 brushless commercial lawn mower kit with four 5.0Ah batteries. It features improved motor efficiency and enhanced deck design over the XML02 series.
