The Makita DUH751RT is a cordless hedge trimmer which offers several benefits and features. Performance and Power: The DUH751RT is powered by Makita’s 18V LXT Lithium-Ion battery system providing ample power for efficient hedge trimming. It offers a high blade speed and a 29-1/2 blade length allowing you to tackle even larger hedges with ease. Cordless Convenience: Being a cordless hedge trimmer the DUH751RT offers the freedom to move around without being restricted by a power cord. This makes it more convenient and allows you to trim hedges in areas where power outlets may not be readily available. Reduced Maintenance: As a battery-powered tool the DUH751RT eliminates the need for gas or oil which means you don’t have to worry about fuel mixing or exhaust emissions. It also requires less maintenance compared to gas-powered hedge trimmers saving you time and effort. Quiet Operation: Unlike petro powered hedge trimmers the DUH751RT operates quietly minimizing noise pollution. This is particularly beneficial if you live in a residential area or if you prefer a quieter working environment. Ergonomic Design: Makita has designed the DUH751RT with user comfort in mind. It features a well-balanced design and a rubberized soft grip handle providing better control and reducing fatigue during extended use. The lightweight construction further enhances maneuverability. Safety Features: The DUH751RT incorporates safety features such as a two-handed operation switch which helps prevent accidental startups. It also includes a blade tip guard to protect the blades when trimming near walls or fences. Compatibility with Makita’s 18V LXT System: If you already own other Makita cordless tools that use the 18V LXT battery system the DUH751RT is compatible with the same batteries. This means you can interchange batteries across multiple tools enhancing convenience and saving money on additional batteries.
