Makita 40V Cordless Hedge Trimmer

The Makita UH008GD201 is a professional-grade 40V max XGT cordless hedge trimmer featuring a 750 mm double-sided reciprocating blade and a brushless motor delivering performance comparable to petrol equipment.

Engineered for high-demand groundskeeping and commercial hedge maintenance, the Makita UH008GD201 leverages the advanced 40V max XGT battery platform to generate approximately 600 W (0.8 HP) of output power. This high-efficiency system eliminates engine exhaust emissions and reduces operational noise while maintaining cutting performance comparable to petrol-powered equivalents.

At the heart of the trimmer is a high-performance brushless motor controlled electronically to sustain constant speed even under heavy branch loads. Users can choose among three electronic cutting speeds—2,000, 3,600, and 5,000 strokes per minute—enabling precise adaptation between fine decorative shaping and tough overgrown reduction.

The cutter assembly features a 750 mm double-sided reciprocating blade capable of processing branches up to 23.5 mm in diameter. Its precision-ground cutting teeth are designed to capture branches cleanly, resulting in smooth cuts that promote plant health and tidy growth.

Operator comfort and safety are reinforced by an integrated anti-vibration system and an ergonomic multi-position rotating handle that accommodates both vertical and horizontal trimming orientations. A quick-stopping electric brake ensures cutting motion halts immediately when triggers are released.

This complete cordless kit configuration includes one high-capacity 40V max 5.0Ah BL4050F lithium-ion battery along with a DC40RA fast charger, providing ready-to-work capability with rapid turnaround between trimming sessions.
