Makita VC011GZ02 40Vmax XGT Brushless Cordless 6L Backpack Vacuum – Tool Only

The Makita VC011GZ02 is a cordless 40Vmax XGT backpack vacuum designed for mobile cleaning in facilities, schools, healthcare, retail, and jobsites. A high-efficiency brushless motor delivers up to 85 CFM with strong 80.4″ water lift, giving reliable pickup on hard floors and low-pile carpet. The two-stage HEPA system captures 99.97% of particulates 0.3 microns and larger, while an automatic filter-cleaning dust bag with a spring-loaded rocker helps keep suction steady by reducing clogging during continuous use. Four suction modes let crews balance power, runtime, and sound level, and the controller includes an LED job light for low-light areas. With two 5.0Ah XGT batteries (sold separately) used in sequence, runtime reaches up to 260 minutes in Mode 1, supporting extended routes without cords or outlets. A 6 L filter bag capacity and padded, adjustable shoulder straps with a waist belt support long shifts. Quiet operation—up to 70 dB(A)—makes it suitable for daytime cleaning in occupied buildings.
