Description

18V X2 LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Power-Assisted Wheelbarrow is a convenient solution for material transport on job sites. You can use one or two Makita 18 Volt LXT batteries: Use one 6 amp-hour battery and get up to 60 minutes of run time under load. For longer run time, drop in a second LXT battery and double the run time (batteries and charger sold separately). Makita brushless motors are engineered for up to 50% longer run time, increased power and speed, and longer tool life, and the Hand- Truck/Wheelbarrow has a Makita-built BL Brushless Motor that provides high power efficiency for transporting up to 275 lbs. of material on job sites. It has 2 speed settings, with a maximum speed of 2.5 MPH on a 12-degree incline. For versatility and convenience, the wheelbarrow is reversible with side rails on the flat bed for easy up and down installation. Additional accessories include a steel tube flat bed (sold separately) and steel bucket (included). For added convenience, the rear wheels adjust from 19" to 30" to accommodate the work environment, and can also be detached and replaced with easy- installed L-shaped legs. L.E.D. lights are located on each side of frame help illuminate the work area. The Power-Assisted Hand Truck features Extreme Protection Technology (XPT), engineered for increased dust and water resistance for operation in harsh job site conditions.

  • A unique barrow in a nich of its own
Style: Wheelbarrow, Bare Tool
Edit:[4 stars because nothing’s perfect and because there no comparable product. AFAIK this is the only single front wheel electric wheelbarrow available now.] 5 Stars because now that there's is something to compare this barrows weaknesses, described below, is still better than a competitor’s strengths. Shop them for yourself. If you read nothing else. READ the next 3 paragraphs. Be aware of your sellers return policies. For heavyweight items the return shipping cost may exceed fixing it yourself. My unit came in a box that appeared to have been previously opened. A bit bumped up but not usually a cause for concern. I accepted it as undamaged. However, the hardware bag was torn open and several pieces were nowhere to be found. Hardware is standard metric, but 2 handle screws have a special shoulder and not easily replaced. Thankfully both of those were still in the box. 1 caster wheel was damaged or defective on manufacture. The rear caster wheels pivot on bearings on a 1+” steel shaft. The bearings are held between thick stamped steel race/washers. Unfortunately, the design forms the cup for the bearing races open upward, which will trap dirt etc causing failure. This is partially compensated for by a grease fitting and ring gasket. The grease fitting is not connected such that adding grease helps force dirt and water out of the cup. Bump the wheel hard, very hard or mis-form the bearing washers during manufacture and the ring seal is pinched out of the gap leaving the bearing exposed. Hopefully and with a little work with a 20T press + adding a modified automotive lip seal as a flashing will be the fix and make the needed improvement. My criteria in choosing: 1. I chose it because its Makita, single front wheel and electrically assisted. 2. I wanted the off-road, on-trail maneuverability that the single front wheel allows. 3. I own many other Makita tools, their quality is usually above average. And having multiple battery systems is also undesirable. 4. MY physical rating of heavy duty is fading with time, so the search was on for a tool to fill the gap. 5. I don’t often need the extra duty (or maintenance) of gasoline power or heavier load capacity that other categories of barrows provide. A bit of background: I own three wheelbarrows. First is a 1 wheel contractor grade. Simple, heavily used, now over 20 years old and still useable as new with only mimimal care and maintenance. It is “heavy duty”. My second is the 2 wheel, orange/silver model, multi-tool-hand truck, rock lifter, water carrier, 4 tire wagon convertible (with accessory). The brand you all know by the description. Much smaller in capacity than the contractor barrow, but more easily manuvered for smaller jobs. Its multi-use design and size makes it light duty in comparison to the full size contractor barrow. And now this Makita. It fits somewhere in-between the two so by my ranking it’s medium duty. Not because it couldn’t be tougher, bigger, better? More because it shouldn’t. You don’t need a bulldozer to do the work of a bobcat. And while a bobcat could sometimes substitute for a bulldozer the added time on task plus wear and tear on the cat would make such a poor choice. Operational notes: Makita is known for quality. As a medium duty wheelbarrow its well designed. At its upper limits of advertised load, 275lbs, and using the optionally provided skids instead of wheels limitations appear. Compared to my contractor wheelbarrow the bucket is thinner and will dent more easily (medium duty). More importantly the handle to front wheel axle length is 6” shorter. This loss of leverage coupled with the battery / controller box position makes the lift and balance while moving more difficult than the contractor barrow. With 275lb on board the frame thru the handles also flexed to the point that the carrier frame lock (the dump feature) released on a bump in the trail and the load was lost (the handles flexed further causing the release). At full weight with the rear skids installed (instead of wheels) and on irregular terrain both me and my Makita are at our limits. With a max load even with handle and load balance adjustments such that most of the load is on the front wheel the irregular tug of the motor on rough terrain makes the overall effort greater than that of pushing and balancing the contractor barrow on most slopes. Legs do little while upper body ability is exceeded. Frequent use under these conditions will have wear and tear issues for us both. When desired you can readily push and over-run the electric assist, but a slight resistance is felt. Its slightly harder to push against the free wheeling motor than a plain wheel on an axle. Downhill this is not a factor and having a handbrake is nice compared to holding back or dragging the skids. The rear skids are J shaped tubes inserted into the drop tube frame that also holds the rear wheels when installed. Unlike the contractor barrow, with skids formed by rolled edge strap steel forming a triangular leg, these tubes stick straight down from a single point of connection. Too much load, slope or a snag and something will give. And the skids have no shoes. For occasional pushing the limits use adding skid plate shoes and angle bracing for the skids and handles sooner rather than later will be better than oops, too late. Using the rear caster wheels is what makes this barrow’s ease of operation shine. The handle flex problem is mostly gone since the load is now riding on the rear wheels. On smooth, firm, limited slope surfaces its simply walk and steer. Take it on-trail and more weight is at the handles during those times when trimming the balance (lifting the load by the handles) is required. Too rough and the skids with a lighter load is preferable. Also when backing, as the rear wheel casters swivel, wheel base distance shortens about 2” narrowing the center of gravity. What was steady on three wheels before may come out of balance just due to backing. Load and slope: Makita’s specs for these conditions are vague. A “12deg slope at 2.5 mph.“ With what load? Its not stated. With what duty cycle? Complex question. It depends. Battery condition and temperature. Motor temperature. And the slip / friction of the surface your traversing are all factors. The owners manual warns of exceeding these limits and the rapid motor shutdown that follows. Be prepared for loosing the load, a motor / battery cool down time and a re-assessment of how to reduce the load factors to continue the task. I’ve greatly exceeded the 12deg slope to 30+deg with a full load of 275lbs for distances of 30 feet without consequence. Even steeper for brief distances. I’m convinced that longer and steeper slopes are possible. Its just how heavy, hot and far is the shutdown limit? With that said YMWV (your mileage WILL vary). In summary: I wrote this primarily to help fill in the unknowns of the load and slope abilities of this unique machine. IMO a 12deg slope is so far below real world usage for a wheelbarrow that if true, this item should be re-categorized as a warehouse assist buggy. I also discovered a couple of other problems along the way. If your needs follow my criteria look no farther. You won’t be disappointed! ... show more

  • A useful and must have tool for those who garden
Style: Wheelbarrow, Kit
Exceeded my expectations Quality throughout down to the nuts and bolts, The barrow or tub, designed for this, is heat treated and tempered. Two speed front wheel are both powerful delivering constant power whether loaded or unloaded. High speed ,2nd gear, is faster than walking. Instead OF CONSTANTLY balancing when using a traditional barrow. Two outriggers with 360 swivel wheels keep the barrow balanced and allows for tight turns. It even has a beeper when in reverse. I find this tool is excellent when I'm working in the garden from moving 90 lb bags of mulch to mixing soil I have an acre of garden not enough for a tractor, but just right for the makita ... show more

  • Helpful pushing heavy loads up a slight incline
Style: Wheelbarrow, Kit
What to expect: With a full load of a couple dozen+ shovelfuls of gravel or road base on levelish ground its pace is about the same as mine (if it were empty) but faster than mine if I were pushing the weight. It can push a full load up a 10-degree slope on firm ground, but the motor strains. Above a 10 degree slope the drive wheel has trouble gaining traction on anything less than asphalt. Traveling downhill the rear end wants to swing around and requires consistent operator control. The parking brake is nice and efficient, but the rear castor wheel brakes are also needed to park the device on any kind of side slope. One battery lasts impressively, I use it several hundred yards away from my house and it has always gotten us back home after use an hour's use without an issue; but power does seem to drop off after half a charge. It is nice to have the back-up of a second battery to get up the final hill. Despite what the description says, the rear wheels are basically 26” OC and will fit through a 32” wide gate. The rear “legs” are included and can replace the wheels (like a normal wheelbarrow) if you need a slightly tighter clearance. There are Zirk fittings on the castor wheels that you may want to hit if you have a grease gun. Assembly is not difficult; however, all the nuts and bolts and 2 wrenches had escaped their envelopes (but not the box) upon delivery; I suspect loss of parts is why Amazon makes an issue of the “assembly assistance.” The back-up alarm is cute, as are the headlights. The Makita Warranty necessitates returning it to a Makita service center; in my case that is 300 miles away... hth. ... show more

  • Perfect for My Large Yard
Style: Wheelbarrow, Kit
I am a 78 year old "youngster" who has a 1.5 acre yard. Nearly 10,000 sq ft of this yard has large planting beds and small garden bed. I do have a 16 degree slope to navigate from my upper yard at the house to the substantial lower yard. I have used this in the past 30 days to perform clean up of the various flowering plants my spouse has planted. Lots of Iris, Peony, Dahlia, Zinnia, Forget Me Not, Day Lilly, etc. In the past I navigated all this with a regular wheelbarrow and pushing full loads up this slope was getting difficult. No so with the Makita Wheelbarrow. Have hauled large loads up this slope with both speeds without any difficulty at all. The slow speed can be a little slow so usually use the higher speed. No problem and it zips right up at a near decent walking speed. The two large boxes arrived via ONTRAC and were not damaged. The contents are packed extremely well for transport. The instructions were very easy to follow and did not take long to assemble. Unlike the unit I ordered a couple months ago from a big box store that arrived with one big broken box and several smaller repackaged boxes that I refused delivery on. ... show more

  • Light duty indoor only
Style: Flat Dolly, Kit
If you have an indoor concrete floor for light retail or a very light greenhouse application then this fragile homeowner device might be useful. I bought it for helping with firewood and it's too light-duty for that. It wouldn't take very much to improve this device but makita is disinterested in doing so. They advertise it as a robust outdoor unit. Zero quality assurance. Zero testing. This a nicely painted prototype with at least a dozen design flaws. ... show more
