Makita DUC256Z Twin 18v Brushless 25cm Chainsaw (Body Only)

The Makita DUC256Z is a high powered cordless top handle chainsaw with a 25cm bar and chain suitable for super quick branch and trunk cutting, making it ideal for professional arborists operating in the landscape environment. With a highly efficient 36v brushless motor that is powered by 2 x 18v LXT batteries that can offer around 500 cuts in 50mm cedar wood with 5Ah batteries, this chainsaw is a real petrol alternative. Features include a variable speed trigger with a maximum chain speed of 20m/s, LED battery capacity lights and a torque boost mode that provides extra power when cutting thick or hard branches.

The DUC256Z is well balanced and lightweight (just 4.6kg with 2 x BL1850B batteries attached), a hanging D ring is suitable for rope attachment when working at height and is fitted with a chain brake that stops chain movement almost instantly when operated.

Please note this is a top handle chainsaw and should be used by trained tree surgeons only.
