Battery trimmer 36 V (2x18v) DUR369AZ

Cable-free operation for grass and shrub work

This model is a solution dedicated to users who value mobility but don't want to give up the power characteristic of petrol equipment. The device operates on a 36 V system, achieved by combining two 18 V LXT batteries. This configuration allows for higher performance while maintaining a compact design. The absence of a petrol engine eliminates the need for fuel mixture, pull start, or regular service inspections. Instead, the user gets a ready-to-use tool that starts with the press of a single button.

Ergonomics and construction facilitating work

The key element of this trimmer is the "bike handle". This handlebar style ensures stable guidance of the device during work on uneven terrain and allows for a natural hand position, reducing wrist fatigue during extended mowing. The brushless motor not only increases energy efficiency from the batteries but also eliminates mechanical friction typical of carbon brushes. This allows the tool to work more quietly, heat up less, and require less frequent service interventions.

It is worth paying attention to several key construction aspects that affect daily use:

• Power based on two 18V LXT batteries working in parallel delivers the 36 V power necessary for cutting dense grass and young shrubs without performance loss.
• The use of a brushless motor translates into longer runtime on a single charge and increased device longevity compared to models with brushes.
• The special bike handle provides better control over the cutting head and work comfort in difficult terrain, reducing wrist strain.
• No exhaust emissions makes the device ideal for use in urban gardens or residential areas, where quiet and clean operation is a priority.
• The noise level is significantly lower than that of petrol brush cutters, which significantly improves operator comfort throughout the day.

Applications and working conditions

The equipment will prove useful both in daily lawn care around the house and in more demanding cleanup tasks on recreational plots or commercial green spaces. Thanks to the lack of a power cable, the operator can freely move around the entire garden area without worrying about getting tangled in wires or the need to continuously connect extension cords to various outlets.

It is worth remembering several practical aspects of operation:

1. Starter kit: The device is sold as a "body only" version. This means that batteries and a charger are not included in the set – they are necessary for operation and must be purchased separately or used from an existing Makita 18V LXT tool collection.
2. Cutting head: Standard equipped with trimming line for grass; for larger shrubs, an appropriate cutting disc can be used (available as optional accessory), which extends the device's capabilities to include brush cutter functions.
3. Weight and balance: Despite relatively high power, the construction has been designed so that the weight is evenly distributed between the handles, making maneuvering easier even with fully charged batteries.

The brushless motor is not just a marketing name – it is a real difference in operation compared to older solutions with carbon brushes. In traditional motors, brush wear limits device lifespan and requires periodic replacement, generating service costs and work stoppages. In the brushless model, the absence of these wearing elements means significantly higher energy efficiency – energy from the battery is better used to drive the cutting head instead of being lost to mechanical friction. Additionally, the lack of sparking during commutation translates into quieter motor operation and less heating of the housing during intensive cutting of dense vegetation. For professionals, this means fewer service downtimes, and for amateur gardeners – longer working time without the need to purchase spare parts or worry about the technical condition of the motor after the winter season. It's simply a tool ready for action from the moment the batteries are installed – without unnecessary starting procedures or ignition system maintenance typical of petrol-powered units.
