MORE GARDENING POWER WITH MAKITA

Leading power tool manufacturer Makita has expanded its impressive gardening and landscaping portfolio, with the launch of two new cordless pruning saws – the DUC101 and UC100D.

DUC101 18V Pruning Saw Brushless LXT

Designed with a 100mm bar and chain and equipped with a powerful brushless 320W motor, the new DUC101 pruning saw offers chain speeds of up to 8m/s to make garden and orchard pruning tasks a breeze. With a lightweight and compact construction, users can easily manoeuvre the tool to make quick work of pruning tree branches and thick bushes.

 

One of the standout features is its tool-less chain change and tension adjustment mechanism which negates the need for any additional tools. Plus, with the automatic chain lubrication and chain oil view window, users can easily keep track of the saw's oil levels and ensure smooth and precise cutting performance.

 

The DUC101 features a lock-off lever accessible from both sides, a rear hand guard, and a moveable guard that gradually opens wider as the saw chain cuts deeper into the branch.

 

UC100D 12Vmax Pruning Saw Brushless CXT

Makita has also added the 12Vmax UC100D CXT pruning saw with 100mm chainsaw bar and chain to its outdoor line-up. With a lightweight, compact design and a soft-grip handle this tool is ideal for smaller cutting jobs. Like the DUC101, it features automatic chain lubrication and a chain oil view window, so users can ensure that the chain is always properly oiled for maximum performance.

 

The UC100D includes a number of safety features such as a lock-off lever accessible from both sides, a rear hand guard, a moveable guard, and an electric brake to help prevent accidents.

 

Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager at Makita UK commented: “Our cordless gardening products help our customers handle their projects with more ease, control and freedom on site. The latest pruning saws are a great addition to any tool collection thanks to their excellent design and powerful brushless motor.”

 

The pruning saws are part of Makita’s wider spring collection of product launches which also includes the 350mm 18V LXT DUC357 Brushless Chainsaw, which joins the 300mm DUC307 Chainsaw that was launched earlier this year.

"I always use E10 with no problems in Stihl equipment and mowers.   Worth remembering E5 still contains 5% ethanol     Why did your carbs need replacing?   Dealers are very quick to just fit a new carb rather than stripping he carb down, cleaning it…"

Ian Harvey replied to Tim Bucknall's discussion E10 petrol
"The Briggs engine in my mower seems to run very poorly on some E10, but fine on a different petrol can fill up. I suspect that either the quality of some E10 at petrol stations is iffy, or maybe it degrades worse over time. I also had an older…"

We've had several machines fail recently (stihl hedgetrimmers and blowers) where the carburettor needs replacing- and on older machines, this can tip the balance from 'worth repairing' to 'not worth repairing'.  I suspect this is down to E10 petrol.…

We have the entire range of Etesia machines but don't have any power drive pedestrian machines. The guys never liked them. I hope you have the model with the individual height adjusters. I have one that's 20 years old so it should see you out.…"
