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.

Fantastic bit of kit, very sharp and cuts like a hot knife through butter. Easily as good if not better than any petrol version plus no fumes. No fear of cutting electrical cord either something I've done many times. Bought from powertool world as best price around and a fast efficient service .

I'm a professional gardener/landscaper and before I've even tried this hedge trimmer, I can tell you it looks professional and feels really well balanced. It looks like they've taken the housing and motor from their battery split shaft strimmer/trimmer and just bolted on direct hedge trimming blades - perfect - cause the split shaft is my most used tool - love it - recommend that in a heart beat. I've owned all of makita's battery hedge trimmers but none felt right, bit heavy and cumbersome or lacking in feel and power but now with a higher stroke rate coming close to a petrol counter part - at the moment it feels like one of my great purchases for the year. Can't testify to run times but to be honest I don't care - with 10+ 5 amp batteries and that'll be more than enough to get me through my maintenance rounds. Slowly but surely moving away from petrol to battery
