Hedge trimmer 500 mm 18 V LXT DUH507RT

Brushless Drive and Cutting Precision in One Device

This tool combines the efficiency of a brushless system with a compact design, ideal for garden work. The BL (Brushless) motor eliminates the need for carbon brush replacement, resulting in longer tool life and reduced battery energy consumption. Consequently, the shears operate more quietly, and their performance remains consistent even under intensive use. The blade length is 500 mm, enabling rapid trimming of medium-height hedges and shaping shrub branches without the need for constant repositioning.

Work Comfort and Performance in Challenging Conditions

The tool weighs only 2.3 kg (without battery), significantly reducing hand fatigue during extended pruning sessions. This weight is crucial when working overhead or in hard-to-reach garden areas. The shears are designed to handle branches up to 15 mm in diameter—providing sufficient power to prune tougher rose or boxwood stems without the risk of blade jamming.

The package includes a complete starter solution:

• A 5.0 Ah Li-Ion battery ensuring long runtime on a single charge.
• A charger compatible with the LXT 18 V system.
• The shears themselves, model DUH507RT.

Thanks to LXT technology, the tool is compatible with hundreds of other MAKITA devices, allowing for optimization of your equipment fleet and eliminating the need to purchase dedicated batteries for each tool. The overall dimensions of the complete set are approximately 985 mm in length, facilitating transport and storage in smaller garden sheds or car trunks.

Applications and Practical Benefits

The device is suitable for both regular garden maintenance and more demanding shaping tasks. The brushless construction ensures no sparks during operation, enhancing safety when trimming dry branches or working near flammable materials. Precise blade guidance delivers clean, even cuts, which is essential for hedge aesthetics and healthy regrowth after pruning.

The tool requires no complicated operation—simply attach the battery, activate the safety lock, and pull the trigger. Thanks to the ergonomic handle and low vibration emission, work remains comfortable even during prolonged use. This is a solid choice for anyone seeking reliable greenery maintenance equipment that does not require constant connection to the electrical grid or the hassle of dragging a cable across the entire garden.
