Makita’s 40V XGT range of reliable and powerful machines has proved popular with our customers. That is why we were delighted by their recent release of a new cleaning machine within this range, the VS001G cordless vacuum sweeper.
It can manoeuvre various spaces and surfaces while providing excellent power and performance. Combine two of Makita’s 5ah 40V XGT batteries for 120 minutes of runtime. You can also choose to have one battery on the machine while the other is charging, with a quick swap for nonstop use.
This machine is ideal for a range of settings, including hospitality venues, warehousing, or general public spaces. Its enhanced splash water protection means it is also suitable for sweeping exterior areas around the building as required.
All of this comes in a compact design with a width of 650mm. This means the Makita XGT cordless can fit through standard doorways, which is ideal for hotel and office spaces and is easily manoeuvrable for any operator. Yet its compact design does not inhibit its performance. The vacuum sweeper can capture a wide range of waste types, including larger and bulkier materials, like 500ml plastic bottles.
The VS001G comprises two height-adjustable main brushes under the machine and another height-adjustable side brush, which allows for thorough sweeping right to the edge of the wall. To avoid disruption in quiet areas, operators can choose between two speed settings. The standard speed is 500rpm, with a much quieter option at the 160rmp setting.
