The Makita-built brushless motor delivers the power of a 35cc gas pole saw. The 40V max XGT delivers up to 150 cuts in 4x4 cedar on a single charge of an XGT 4.0Ah battery, allowing the user to cut and trim for longer periods of time. The Pole Saw has convenience features that include a lateral chain tensioner with a single stud for efficient chain retention and a captured bar nut that is retained in the sprocket cover for easier setup and maintenance. There is also a translucent bar oil tank with a large opening that aids in adding oil and keeping the bar properly lubricated. Additional features include Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT), which electronically turns off the motor if the rotation of the attachment is suddenly forced to stop. Durability features include Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) for improved dust and water resistance, and IPX4 weather-resistant construction. XGT is a system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers utilizing 40v max lithium-ion batteries. XGT is engineered to deliver high power to take on high-demand applications, allowing users to completely transition to a cordless job site. XGT is equipped with advanced brushless motor engineering, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability features to outpower, outsmart and outlast the rest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"3798d6ac-6814-48a8-8e02-34f2c62f520c\" dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message relative flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 text-start break-words whitespace-normal [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-1\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-5-mini\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[1px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose dark:prose-invert w-full break-words light markdown-new-styling\"\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"30\"\u003eWhat Our Experts Think\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"31\" data-end=\"495\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"31\" data-end=\"141\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"33\" data-end=\"141\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"33\" data-end=\"61\"\u003ePro‑performance cutting:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40V Max XGT brushless motor delivers strong power for precise pole saw tasks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"142\" data-end=\"224\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"144\" data-end=\"224\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"144\" data-end=\"172\"\u003e10″ bar with 8 ft reach:\u003c\/strong\u003e Great for trimming high branches without ladders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"225\" data-end=\"315\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"227\" data-end=\"315\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"227\" data-end=\"252\"\u003eCordless convenience:\u003c\/strong\u003e Battery‑powered freedom with professional‑grade performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"316\" data-end=\"400\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"318\" data-end=\"400\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"318\" data-end=\"336\"\u003eDurable build:\u003c\/strong\u003e Designed for rugged outdoor use and long‑lasting reliability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"401\" data-end=\"495\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"495\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"403\" data-end=\"426\"\u003eErgonomic handling:\u003c\/strong\u003e Balanced design reduces fatigue during extended trimming sessions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-start=\"497\" data-end=\"508\"\u003eQ\u0026amp;A\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"509\" data-end=\"1025\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"509\" data-end=\"664\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"511\" data-end=\"664\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"511\" data-end=\"517\"\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e What’s included in this kit?\u003cbr data-start=\"546\" data-end=\"549\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"551\" data-end=\"557\"\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e 10″ pole saw, compatible 40V Max XGT battery, and rapid charger (verify exact kit contents at purchase).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"665\" data-end=\"789\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"667\" data-end=\"789\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"667\" data-end=\"673\"\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e What can I use this pole saw for?\u003cbr data-start=\"707\" data-end=\"710\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"712\" data-end=\"718\"\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Trimming high branches, pruning tall trees, and hard‑to‑reach limbs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"790\" data-end=\"921\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"921\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"792\" data-end=\"798\"\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e Is it suitable for heavy branches?\u003cbr data-start=\"833\" data-end=\"836\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"838\" data-end=\"844\"\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — brushless motor and extended reach handle medium‑duty trimming well.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"922\" data-end=\"1025\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"1025\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"930\"\u003eQ:\u003c\/strong\u003e Does it require gas?\u003cbr data-start=\"951\" data-end=\"954\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"956\" data-end=\"962\"\u003eA:\u003c\/strong\u003e No — cordless operation offers quieter, cleaner performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5 data-start=\"1027\" data-end=\"1051\"\u003eMaintenance Tips\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"1052\" data-end=\"1375\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1052\" data-end=\"1126\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1054\" data-end=\"1126\"\u003eFully charge the battery before first use;
