Landscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to corded and gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE, including the Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Hedge Trimmer (model XHU02M1). With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the XHU02M1 is a welcome solution for trimming applications. The XHU02M1 has a Makita-built motor that delivers 2, 700 SPM and a 22 inch blade for increased cutting capacity. The XHU02M1 will run up to 120 minutes on the low setting on a single charge using an 18V LXT 4. 0Ah battery. Cordless technology also means lower noise, and at only 87 dB(A) the XHU02Z is 25% quieter than other cordless hedge trimmers.

Buyer Guide For Hedge Trimmers

 A pruning shear is a useful tool for both professionals and amateurs. However, before setting out to buy one, you have to consider the product’s type.

• Electric Hedge Trimmers. Electric hedge trimmers are powered by electricity. They tend to be lightweight. However, their motor components may be loud and noisy. Electric hedge trimmers are best suited for trimming fruit trees and shrubs.
• Petrol Hedge Trimmers. Petrol hedge trimmers can be powered by either petrol or diesel. The petrol-powered trimmers deliver a high amount of torque, whereas diesel-powered hedge trimmers are lighter but deliver less power. Petrol hedge trimmers are best suited for trimming larger shrubs.
• Cordless Hedge Trimmers. Batteries power cordless hedge trimmers. They offer a noise-free performance. However, they tend to weigh more. Cordless hedge trimmers are best for trimming small to medium shrubs, trees, and hedges.
• Handheld Hedge Trimmers. Handheld hedge trimmers are powered by gasoline. They are light and easy to move around. Handheld hedge trimmers are best suited for trimming small to medium shrubs, trees, and hedges.
• Pole Hedge Trimmers. Pole hedge trimmers are similar to handheld hedge trimmers but mounted on a pole.

How to choose Hedge Trimmers

When choosing a new hedge trimmer, there are a few factors to consider. First, you need to consider the size of the trimmer head. Smaller trimmer heads are best for trimming small hedges. Larger heads are good for larger, taller hedges.

Second, you should consider the cutting setting. The cutting set refers to the blade’s thickness. Most trimmer heads have a range from 1.5mm to 3mm. A thicker blade provides greater cutting power, while thinner blades are better suited to smaller hedges.

Also, be sure to consider the power source. Most hedge trimmers are powered by either electricity or gas. Electric trimmers are typically less noisy and more convenient to use. However, gas-powered trimmers can provide greater cutting power, and are often more powerful.

How to maintain Hedge Trimmers

 Many homeowners use hedge trimmers to keep hedges neat and trimmed. These string trimmers come in many different sizes, from trimmers used to trim small hedges to large models that can be used to trim entire properties.

• Clean the blades: Over time, oil on the blades of the trimmer can build up, making it difficult for the blades to move freely. To test the tightness of the blades, hold the trimmer upside down and pull the trimmer’s trigger. If the blades move freely, they need oiling. If they’re stuck, you’ll need to remove the blades and wash them with a wire brush.
• Change the oil and air filter: Oil on the blades can build up over time, so it’s important to periodically change the oil and air filter. Most string trimmers have an oil reservoir on the top of the trimmer, which can be easily accessed by unscrewing the top cap. To replace the air filter, pull the trimmer’s trigger to unscrew it.
• Sharpen the blades: If your hedge trimmer’s blades become dull, it is likely to cause more problems rather than fix them. To sharpen blades, use a wire brush to scrub the blades and then sharpen them with a whetstone.
• Check the cord: Check the cord of your hedge trimmer before each use. Make sure there aren’t any loose or frayed wires. If there are, you’ll need to replace the cord.
