Makita 30 cm (12″) Powerful top-handle chainsaw with 2×18V LXT performance for arborists and professionals
The Makita DUC306Z is a compact yet powerful cordless chainsaw built for demanding tree work, pruning, and light construction. Powered by two 18V LXT batteries in series (36V total), it delivers the performance of a petrol saw without the noise, emissions, or maintenance. A brushless motor drives the chain at up to 20.6 m/s, ensuring fast and clean cuts through hardwood and branches.
Lightweight body, serious power
Weighing only 2.8 kg (without battery), this top-handle chainsaw is designed for safe, one-handed operation in elevated or tight conditions. The adjustable automatic chain lubrication system keeps cutting smooth, while the oversized oil tank (200 ml) reduces refill frequency. Safety features include a two-stage trigger, electric brake, and kickback protection.
Ideal for arborists and tree care professionals, the DUC306Z includes a 30 cm bar, safety cover, and mounting tool. Part of Makita’s 18V LXT platform, it’s compatible with over 300 tools sharing the same batteries.
Applications: Ideal for tree surgery, branch trimming, pruning, and general timber work. Designed for professionals needing lightweight handling with cordless power and low noise.
