Features: The Makita-built brushless motor offers the power of a 22.7cc gas hedge trimmer, with up to 13% more torque for thick branches. It can run up to 6 hours on a 40V XGT® 4.0Ah battery. It's gas-free, emission-free, and has no oil mixing or pull starts. It operates with low noise and requires less maintenance, reducing costs and downtime. The 30-inch single-sided shear blade is ideal for commercial work. Its bevel-tipped, curved 3-sided teeth grip branches for clean cuts with less friction. The full-length debris shield helps collect and clean up clippings. It has 3 speed options (Low: 2,000, Medium: 3,600, High: 5,000 SPM) for power and runtime control, a reverse function to clear jams, and an anti-vibration design for comfort. It's IPX4 weather-resistant and has XPT™ for better dust and water resistance. The XGT® system monitors and protects against overload, over-discharge, and overheating, and provides constant power. The XGT® batteries are impact-resistant, and the rapid charger cools quickly for faster charging.

This high-performance hedge trimmer offers fast and efficient trimming, similar to a 22.7cc gas trimmer but with less noise, maintenance, and emissions. It runs up to 6 hours on a single charge. The XGT® system uses 40v max lithium-ion batteries, delivering high power for cordless job sites with advanced features.
Using Your Makita Hedge Trimmer Kit: First, make sure the battery is fully charged. Insert the 40V max XGT® 4.0Ah battery into the hedge trimmer. Choose the appropriate speed setting based on the thickness of the branches. For thin branches, use the low speed (2,000 SPM); for medium branches, the medium speed (3,600 SPM); and for thick branches, the high speed (5,000 SPM). Hold the trimmer firmly and start trimming. If the blades get jammed, use the reverse function to clear the blockage. The vacuum can be used separately to clean up the clippings. Just turn it on and start sucking up the debris. Remember to empty the dust bag regularly. When not in use, store the tools in a dry place. Clean the blades after each use to keep them sharp. Check the battery regularly and charge it when needed. The charger is designed to cool the battery quickly, but don't overcharge it. Keep the tools away from water as much as possible, although they are IPX4 weather-resistant. Also, avoid using the tools in extremely dusty environments for long periods to protect the motor and other components.
