§ FAQ

How many batteries are included in the XRU15PT1?

The XRU15PT1 includes four BL1850B 18V 5.0Ah batteries. Two go in the trimmer for operation while the other two charge simultaneously on the included DC18RD dual-port rapid optimum charger.

What is the advantage of the XRU15PT1 over the XRU15PT?

The XRU15PT1 includes four batteries vs. two, allowing you to always have a charged pair ready. This eliminates downtime on large properties and is ideal for professional landscape crews.

Is the XRU15PT1 brushless?

Yes. The XRU15Z tool body uses Makita's Outer Rotor BL Brushless Motor direct-drive system, which delivers higher torque efficiency and more consistent power than conventional brushless designs.

What speed settings does the XRU15PT1 have?

Low: 3,500 RPM, Medium: 5,300 RPM, High: 6,500 RPM, plus an Automatic Torque Drive mode that shifts between 3,500 and 6,500 RPM automatically based on cutting conditions.

What is the cutting swath of the XRU15PT1?

The XRU15PT1 cuts a 15-inch swath per pass. This is 2 inches wider than the previous XRU09 series (13 inches), covering 15% more area per pass for faster job completion.
