Makita DUC101Z 18V Li-ion LXT Brushless 100mm Pruning Saw Batteries and Charger Not Included

Product Information

Manual pruning saws are the cheapest, most compact, and (generally) safest to use, but they do require a decent amount of effort to operate. Electric pruning saws do a lot of the work for you, and are typically more efficient if you’ve got a lot of cutting to do—but their power cords or batteries limit portability and running time.

The 6” Pruning Saw features an efficient Makita-built brushless motor for longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life. Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) provides improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions. There is growing demand for cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE, including the 18V LXT® Brushless 10” Top Handle Chain Saw (model XCU06Z). With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the XCU06Z is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications, and the compact top-handle design makes it ideal for the professional tree care industry.

A good rule of thumb is to choose a blade length that’s at least twice the diameter of the branch you plan on cutting. For example, if you’re cutting a 5-inch diameter branch, go with a 10-inch blade. (This rule doesn’t work as well with electric saws, which, depending on the model, can handle branch diameters up to three quarters of their length.)
