Makita has added a new stick vacuum cleaner to its range of high-performance XGT 40Vmax products designed to meet the needs of cleaning professionals. The CL004G offers improved cleaning performance, superior manoeuvrability and a simple, user-friendly design.
The cordless CL004G is designed to make cleaning fast and efficient with a motorised rotary brush that enhances the effectiveness of the vacuum. The brush itself is composed of three types of bristles for optimised debris removal. The new lightweight and easy to handle stick vacuum has a 250ml cyclone type dust box, achieves an air flow of up to 1.0m3 per minute and a maximum sealed suction of 20 kPa. As well as increasing the volume of dust collected, the cyclone attachment also contains dust within the cylinder reducing the risk of debris from contaminating the motor. It features four power modes and a memory function that allows the user to resume vacuuming on the same mode after it is switched off and back on again. Despite the power it offers, the new cleaner is also quiet, with a noise level of 66 dB(A) on the highest power mode and just 58 dB(A) on the lowest.
The CL004G delivers up to 60 minutes of cleaning on a single BL4025 2.5 Ah battery, with runtimes extended with the use of larger capacity batteries. The vacuum cleaner also features a floor detection mechanism so brushes only run while in contact with the floor, preventing wasted energy.
The performance and runtimes are also in part due to the brushless motor in the CL004G. Using contact free electromagnetism to drive the vacuum, the brushless motor eliminates friction to reduce the energy lost as heat and deliver improved performance, as well as minimise maintenance requirements.
The CL004G also includes features to make the user’s work as simple as possible. Both the pipe and the nozzle attachment are secured with a simple locking mechanism making it sturdy but also easy to remove when required. The rotary brush can also be removed from the nozzle without the need for tools, allowing simple maintenance. Furthermore, the CL004G includes a hook that allows it to be easily propped up for convenience during use.
Commenting on the launch of the new product, Kevin Brannigan, Marketing Manager at Makita said: “The CL004G is a valuable addition to our range of 40Vmax XGT cordless vacuum cleaners as it provides an excellence balance of performance, manoeuvrability and ease of use, making it ideal for a wide range of applications."
