Makita DUB187Z 18V LXT Brushless Cordless Leaf Blower and Vacuum (Body Only)

The Makita DUB187Z 18V LXT cordless leaf blower and vacuum (body only) is a dual-purpose tool for garden maintenance. It uses a brushless motor to clear leaves, grass clippings, and debris from paths and driveways. With 108 W of power, the machine delivers a maximum airspeed of 230.4 km/h to dislodge material from corners and uneven surfaces, supported by a blowing airflow of 252 m³/h to gather clippings into piles. Running on an 18 V battery system, the blower provides cord-free mobility for cleaning both hard landscaping and lawn edges.

Weighing 3 kg, the tool is designed to reduce fatigue during use. An ergonomic soft-grip handle and an included shoulder strap help distribute the weight evenly. The machine has a sound pressure level of 81.8 dB, keeping noise levels manageable in residential areas. Engaging the suction mode turns the unit into a vacuum, using the included 25-litre collection bag to gather garden waste. An internal shredding fan breaks down the material, increasing the bag's capacity before it requires emptying. As this is a body-only model, the 18 V LXT battery and charger are sold separately. When equipped with a battery, the system provides approximately 14 minutes of continuous runtime.

• Suction capacity of 366 m³/h – draws in loose leaves and clippings for quick cleanup.
• Integrated shredding function with a 1:10 ratio – reduces leaf volume to minimise trips to the compost bin.
• Vibration emission of 2.5 m/s² – limits exposure to hand-arm vibration during garden maintenance.
• Stepless adjustable speed – allows precise airflow control to prevent scattering debris.
• Quick-change system – enables fast transitions between blowing and vacuuming configurations.
