Makita Brushless Backpack Blower
Landscapers are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding collection of blowers, including the 40V ConnectX Brushless Backpack Blower. With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance than gas-powered models, this Backpack Blower is a welcome solution for landscapers seeking to convert their truck or trailer to battery-powered equipment.
Makita-built brushless motor delivers the power of a 64cc backpack blower and a high blowing force of 25 Newtons to handle heavy debris. It has a tube-mounted variable speed trigger that adjusts between 0 - 696 CFM for power and run time management. There is a cruise control lever speed lock-on variable speed trigger for comfortable continuous operation. It has a sound pressure rating of 62 dB(A); measured per ANSI B 175.2 standard.
The nozzle features a downward endpoint to reduce arm fatigue and provide powerful airflow. The telescoping long nozzle adjusts for a variety of user heights and applications. The in-line fan design provides better tool balance and improved ergonomics.
The CBU04 can deliver up to two hours of runtime with the ConnectX 1,500Wh Portable Backpack Power Supply (model number PDC1500 power supply sold separately).
