About This Product

Landscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE, including the 18-Volt X2 LXT (36-Volt) Brushless 14 Chain Saw Kit (model XCU07PT). With zero emissions, lower noise and considerably less maintenance, the XCU07PT is a welcome solution for cutting and trimming applications. Its powered by two 18-Volt LXT batteries for 36-Volt power and run time, but without leaving the strongly-preferred 18-Volt battery platform. And with the efficient Makita outer rotor Brushless Motor with direct drive system, users get high power efficiency that is equivalent to a gas chain saw. The XCU07PT has a 14 guide bar and the Makita-built motor with variable speed delivers 0 FPM to 3,940 FPM for increased cutting speed. It has zero emissions and reduced maintenance: there's no engine oil to change, no spark plug to replace and no air filter or muffler to clean. And there's no need to drain the fuel for storage. Pick it up, load two 18-Volt LXT Lithium-Ion batteries and the saw is ready to use. Convenience features include captured bar nuts, lateral chain tensioning, a front hand guard engineered to actuate chain brake when engaged and a built-on lock lever to help prevent the chain from accidentally engaging.

          What is the difference between this and the XCU03PT? Does the XCU07PT have longer run time?

          1 Answer | 
          Answer This Question

          Thank you for your question. The key difference between the XCU07PT and the XCU03PT is in the sprocket cover. The XCU07PT uses a tool to remove the cover and tension the chain, while the XCU03PT uses our toolless system.

                    The saw has a lot of power for cutting firewood and for sculpting. The only drawback is battery time. I have had it 2 months and am totally satisfied.

                    Excellent saw, performed better than I thought it would
                    Excellent saw, performed better than I thought it would. About 2 years ago I fell a 31” hickory tree using my gas Husqvarna Rancher. It was the largest tree I had ever fell. So after laying for 2 years I finally figured out how to cut and carry it. Due to its weight I cut it in 3” to 4” length pieces instead of my normal 16” to 18”. The day was 88 - 90 degrees, with humidity ranging from 60 - 70%. I tell you these things because they affect battery life. I was using an Makita 8ah battery which I got about 18 cuts before the battery died and I had to switch it out (I have 8 batteries of various sizes). That number seems low but it was 1) hickory which is very hard. 2) the tree was cured so that would make it harder to cut and 3) the heat was pretty killer. To match that up with my gas Husqvarna chainsaws, they would cut about 10 pieces and then overheat. I kept swapping between the two of them to keep going. I have to say I’m pretty impressed with how this held up. When I swapped batteries they were extremely hot to the touch and took a while to recharge in my cool basement because the charger will not charge them until they cool down to a pre-programmed temperature. The saw itself never overheated. I am an old man of 67. Cutting and hauling trees for 10 - 12 hours a day by myself is beginning to get tiring. I’m tired of mixing oil/gas, changing air filters, oil filters, spark plugs, and changing carburetors . This saw is mostly maintenance-free. You still have to sharpen the chain, you still have to keep the chain tight and you still have to have bar oil in it. Speaking of bar oil. Gas chainsaws usually leak bar oil when you store them because they create a vacuum in the case. Not this Makita. It has an internal tank that keeps it from leaking and it has a window on the side so you can see your bar oil level. If you buy this and are going to cut anywhere from small storm-damaged limbs to getting serious about felling large trees, don’t mess with the small batteries. Get the 8ah (yes it is expensive) and you will be very satsified. If you are going to cut a lot of trees….get 2 or more. I have four 8ah batteries and feel I could cut all day long. One more thing. Some people have returned this chainsaw because of the blue light flashing at the power button. When you apply too much pressure on the chainsaw it thinks it is going to kick back and stops the chain from turning. It’s a safety feature mean to keep you from getting hurt. If you have this occuring often check your bar oil level and make sure you sharpen the chain. I sharpen the chain every 2 batteries depleted. I use a new hand sharpener that Husqvarna came out with this year. It’s excellent. You don’t have to remove the chain and once you get used to using it, it takes about 10 minutes to sharpen the chain which is very fast. I hope this helps someone make a decision.
