About This Product
With zero emissions and lower noise, the 18-Volt LXT Brushless Cordless Blower (XBU03Z) is a welcome solution for clean-up applications. Its powered by one 18-Volt LXT battery (sold separately), the same battery that powers the full range of solutions in the expanding LXT system. This blower features a compact and ergonomic design, weighing in at only 6.5 lbs. and measuring 32-1/2 in. L. With no carbon brushes, the Makita BL Brushless motor runs cooler and more efficiently for longer life and delivers speeds up to 116 MPH air velocity and a full 459 CFM. Makita's efficient BL Brushless Motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per battery charge than similar non-brushless tools. Electronic controls efficiently use battery energy to match the changing demands of the application for increased power and speed when needed. A cruise control lever provides management of power and run time. The XBU03Z features Makita Extreme Protection Technology (XPT). XPT is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. Its part of Makita's expanding 18-Volt Lithium-Ion System, the worlds largest cordless tool system powered by 18-Volt lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18-Volt Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger.

Is this the same as the XBU05Z only with a longer tube? The XBU05Z states speeds of 219 mph while this model states 152mph. It looks like i could use the longer tube (191G09-6) on the XBU05Z and have the faster speed with the longer tube? Or not?
Thank you for your question about our XBU06Z 18V LXT® Lithium‑Ion Cordless Compact Floor Blower. That is correct 191G09-6 is compatible with the XBU05Z. While the XBU06Z has a powerful motor that delivers up to 113 CFM at 152 MPH the XBU05Z has a motor produces a maximum air velocity of 219 MPH.
