About this deal

A. Yes, they can but the quality of the finish will not be as neat or as tidy as a lawnmower finish. INCLUDES: Power head, string trimmer attachment, pole saw attachment, (1) 18V LXT ® 4.0Ah battery and charger A. The batteries recommended for these trimmers typically are 3.0, 4.0 and 5.0Ah Lithium-Ion batteries BL motor is electronically controlled to optimize battery energy use for up to 50% longer run time per charge

We will also outline some FAQ’s that have come up that should answer many of the queries that you may possibly have along with some lower price comparison options for you to take a look at below which possibly could save you some money while you are here. PERFORMANCE: Makita-built Brushless Motor delivers up to 6,000 RPM of high performance with less weight Electric corded strimmers. Corded strimmers use a power cable connected to mains electricity. Depending on the length of the cable, these strimmers are more suitable for smaller gardens, but you can expand their reach with an extension lead. They’re also more dangerous than cordless strimmers because you run the risk of accidentally cutting the cable.Up to 168 min. of run time on a single charge using BL1860B under no load on the lowest setting with nylon cutting head (219 min. with plastic triple blade)

The batteries for these units have a battery duration warning lamp so you know in advance how much battery you have left and when you need to start recharging Petrol strimmers. Powered by petrol these typically have steer handles - explained in more detail below - and a curved, angled shaft. Because they use fuel, they’re often more powerful than corded and cordless strimmers, but petrol is polluting and messy to store and use. They’re also heavy, noisy and need regular servicing. Thanks to the rise of cordless batteries, they’re less common nowadays, particularly for home use. BL motor eliminates carbon brushes, enabling the BL motor to run cooler and more efficiently for longer life The G-series batteries and the 1.5Ah battery are not compatible with these grass trimmers so you need to be careful if you decide to go down the bare unit route.

Straps and safety harnesses. A shoulder strap or safety harness is an excellent bonus feature. It takes some of the weight of the tool, making it more comfortable to use, and also helps balance it, for better manoeuvrability and a more precise cut. BL motor located at trimmer head for improved balance and functionality with no loss of mechanical power Handle types. There are two types of strimmer handles. The most common is a round, circular handle on the shaft of the strimmer, called a loop handle. It makes the strimmer easy and comfortable to control, and on the best models, it can be slid up and down the shaft, so you can adjust it to your height. Alternatively, there are ‘steer’ handles - two handles rather than a loop. These offer more control and let you use a comfortable scything motion when you cut, but they take up room, and can be a little more expensive. They’re also far more common on brushcutters and petrol strimmers than electric or cordless strimmers, so you might not find steer handles on many domestic models. This is a lightweight and powerful cordless strimmer with a telescopic shaft. Even with the large 4.0 Ah battery installed, it weighs just 3 kg, which earns it a BBC Gardeners’ World Magazine Best Buy for large areas. ADT (Automatic Torque Drive Technology) adjusts speed and torque during operation for optimum performance

It offers a solid adjustable pivoting head for those harder to reach areas or patio edging, the spools can be changed very easily and also the bump and feed single line cutting system mechanism works exactly as expected (easy to rewind and attach)Extreme Protection Technology (XPT) is engineered for improved dust and water resistance for operation in harsh conditions LXT ® Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless Couple Shaft Power Head Kit w/ 13" String Trimmer & 10" Pole Saw Attachments (4.0Ah) The angles that the head can be tilted to works really great and is very easy to adjust and overall has the ability to give a really clean, neat and tidy finish across your garden Line feed and blade replacements. It’s useful if a blade strimmer comes with spare blades, so you don’t run out if one breaks in the middle of a job. You should be able to get a new spool of line for a line strimmer or replace the whole head. With both types it's helpful if the spare blades or line can be stored on the tool.

A. No, the G-series batteries are not compatible so you may need to buy a separate battery if you choose the bare tool option. Have you ever used a Makita Cordless Grass Trimmer yourself in the recent past? Did it work as expected or did you come across any problems that we should all know about? POWER: Makita-built outer rotor brushless motor direct-drive system delivers power of a 32cc gas chain sawThe noise level is so much lower than a petrol grass trimmer and the vibration levels are also significantly lower. Cutting head. The cutting head is the most important feature on a strimmer. It should be adjustable, so you can change the angle of the cut to cope with inclines and fiddly jobs. In most models, the head turns 90°, so you can trim along the edges of paths and flowerbeds. In the very best models, the cutting head also has wheels to help guide along edges and support the weight of the strimmer.
