Hedge trimmer 500 mm XGT 40Vmax BLDC, XPT UH020GZ

Performance and Precision in Hedge Trimming

This tool, powered by a 40V brushless (BLDC) system, delivers power and runtime comparable to corded devices while eliminating cable restrictions. The 500 mm blade length enables efficient trimming of both low shrubs and taller plant formations, providing a wide cutting range. Thanks to the XPT (eXtended Protection Technology), the mechanism is better protected against dust and moisture ingress into the housing, resulting in extended tool life in demanding gardening conditions.

Ergonomics and Working Comfort

With a weight ranging from 3.0 to 4.2 kg (depending on the battery used), the tool is relatively lightweight and easy to maneuver for extended periods. Its design minimizes operator fatigue when trimming large areas. Noise levels during operation are controlled, with a guaranteed sound pressure level of 93 dB(A) and a sound power level of 91 dB(A), making it safer for hearing compared to many competing petrol-powered solutions.

Key Features and Applications

The tool stands out with its brushless BLDC motor, which ensures higher efficiency and longer runtime per charge compared to traditional brushed solutions. The available 500 mm blades are ideal for precise hedge shaping and can handle branches up to 20 mm (13/16") in diameter. Additional protection is provided by the XPT system, which effectively isolates the tool's interior from dust and moisture, enhancing reliability in various weather conditions. Note that the device is sold as "body only" (without battery and charger), allowing flexible use of existing MAKITA XGT 40Vmax system batteries.

This solution is suitable for both professional maintenance of urban and park greenery and everyday gardening tasks on recreational plots. The absence of a power cord provides full freedom of movement, while the high power of the brushless motor ensures smooth cutting even through denser vegetation without the risk of blade jamming. Key parameters such as a maximum cutting diameter of 20 mm and a noise level not exceeding 93 dB(A) define this model's capabilities in daily use.
