Supersedes DUH651ZMakita DUH601Z 18v LXT 600mm/23.6" Brushless Hedge Trimmer Body Only
The cordless Makita DUH601 is a Brushless hedge trimmer which is powered by a single 18 volt LXT battery. It has a 60cm (600mm) blade length and a maximum cutting diameter of 23.5mm. The three-speed selection switch gives you ultimate control for a variety of hedges.
New triple-edged cutting teeth are designed to easily catch and firmly hold branches. Curved blades reduce friction resistance to suppress energy loss. Due to the low resistance run time is increased.

Well balanced, more power than I was expecting. Used to trim 2 large Hawthorne bushes and a large holly bush. Ran on top speed for about 90 mins off and on and hardly took any of the charge off a 5Ah battery

The hedge cutter is much lighter than my petrol cutter. The swivel head makes cutting horizontally or vertically much more comfortable. With constant cutting on full speed my 5ah battery lasted 45 minutes. I would recommend this machine

It is a great piece of kit. I already have the Makita batteries that fit. The 600 mm cutting blades give a long reach which is great for taking the top off wide hedges. It is powerful enough to cope with most growth.

Way better than I expected. Far better than my mains powered hedge cutter which I won’t be using again.

This is a very good hedge trimmer. Light ,powerful , lasts well on 3ah battery. The angle of the cutting blades seem to help it cut cleanly and effortlessly on material up to 12mm diameter The safety power button is not too intrusive . I am happy to boast about my new trimmer to all my neighbours
