Makita 40V Max XGT Brushless Backpack Vacuum (VC011G Range)

The Makita 40V Max XGT Brushless Backpack Vacuum (VC011G) provides a genuine cordless solution for high-demand industrial and commercial cleaning applications. Powered by Makita's cutting-edge XGT battery technology and an advanced Brushless motor, this heavy-duty backpack vacuum delivers performance that rivals corded machines. It generates an exceptional maximum sealed suction of 20kPa and a maximum air volume of 2.4m³/min (40L/s), allowing you to power through the toughest cleaning tasks on construction sites, in workshops, or during commercial facility maintenance.

Designed for extended professional use, the VC011G prioritizes both efficiency and operator comfort. It features an ergonomic backpack harness that distributes weight evenly, reducing fatigue over long periods. The vacuum is equipped with a high-efficiency HEPA filter that captures 99.97% of fine dust particulates, ensuring a clean and safe working environment. Furthermore, it utilizes a large 6-Litre reusable dust collection bag that is incredibly easy to remove, empty, and re-install, eliminating the need for messy disposable bags. Operating on dual 40V Max batteries, it provides impressive runtimes—up to 32 minutes on the maximum suction setting with two 4.0Ah batteries.

  • HEPA Filtration: Built-in High Efficiency Particulate Air filter provides a high filtration rate of up to 99.97%, capturing fine dust and allergens.
  • 4-Stage Suction Control: A simple-to-use handpiece allows you to toggle between four suction modes (195W, 100W, 55W, 25W) to optimize runtime and power.
  • Ergonomic Backpack Harness: Designed for comfort over long periods, reducing strain on the user's back and shoulders.
  • Adjustable Telescopic Pipe: The aluminium wand extends and retracts, allowing users of different heights to find a comfortable working length.
  • Functional Handpiece: Conveniently places the On/Off switch, suction mode selector, LED light, and battery indicator right at your fingertips.

What is the difference between the VC011GZ01 and the VC011GT201?

The VC011GZ01 is sold as a 'Tool Only' (skin) and does not come with batteries or a charger. The VC011GT201 is a complete kit that includes the vacuum, two 40V Max 5.0Ah batteries, and a dual rapid charger.

Does this vacuum use one or two batteries?

The VC011G operates using dual 40V Max XGT batteries to provide long runtimes and maximum extraction efficiency for industrial applications.

Does it use disposable paper bags?

No, it features a large 6-Litre reusable dust collection bag. This bag is easily removed, emptied, and re-installed, saving you the ongoing cost of buying disposable bags.

Does it have a HEPA filter?

Yes. It is equipped with a High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filter that provides a high filtration rate of 99.97%, effectively capturing fine dust and allergens.

Can I adjust the suction power?

Yes. The vacuum features a 4-stage speed selection (195W, 100W, 55W, 25W), allowing you to easily adjust the suction control to optimize your runtime and cleaning efficiency for different surfaces.

Where are the controls located?

All the primary controls are conveniently located on a simple-to-use handpiece attached to the hose. From there, you can control the On/Off function, the suction mode, the LED light, and check the battery indicator.

How long will it run on a full charge?

Runtime depends on the batteries used and the suction setting. With two 4.0Ah batteries (BL4040) on the maximum suction setting, it provides up to 32 minutes of continuous use.

Is the wand adjustable?

Yes, it includes an adjustable aluminium telescopic pipe. This allows users of different heights to find a comfortable working length, reducing back strain.

Is it heavy to wear on my back?

The bare tool weighs 5.6kg, and with two 4.0Ah batteries installed, it weighs 7.6kg. The ergonomic backpack harness is specifically designed to distribute this weight comfortably over long periods.

What happens if I forget to put the dust bag back in?
