Developed as the most powerful cordless blower available, the new Makita DUB362Z brushless LXT blower runs up to 21,500rpm, produces a maximum air volume of 13.3 m³/m with a maximum air speed of 53 m/s. This compares favourably with a 4-stroke back-pack contractors blower with 19 m³/m volume and 90 m/s speed.  Air volume and speed can be adjusted to six settings with variable control by the trigger to achieve a consistent delivery. Weighing just 4.5kg this powerful blower has a comfortable hand-grip and 3-stage telescopic long nozzle with 100mm adjustment on the overall length of the pipe. Vibrations are very low at just 2.5 m/s² with maximum noise at 79.1 dB(A)

The DUB362Z is powered by Makita’s twin-battery power system, which utilises two 18v Lithium-Ion batteries in combination to deliver 36v power. This system is being increasingly used in the expanding range of Makita grounds maintenance, landscaping and gardening tools for professional grounds care operators. Two 18v batteries are directly installed on the machines to supply energy to the powerful 36v DC motor.

The DUB362Z is supplied in body only format so that owners can utilise the Makita 18v Lithium-Ion batteries that they already own with other Makita power tools.
