Makita XGT® UH023G 40V Max Brushless Hedge Trimmer, 200 mm

The Makita XGT® UH023G hedge trimmer is a compact and lightweight 40V Max cordless hedge trimmer designed for professional garden, shrub and hedge maintenance. Powered by a high-efficiency brushless motor, it delivers strong cutting performance with excellent balance, control and manoeuvrability.

The 200 mm blade is suitable for cutting branches up to 8 mm in diameter, while the tri-edge ground teeth hold branches securely and provide clean, precise cuts. The handle is positioned close to the tool’s centre of gravity, helping reduce wrist strain and improve control during prolonged use.

An aluminium cooling fan improves airflow for consistent cutting performance and helps reduce the risk of clippings becoming trapped when working with thicker branches. Durable metal gears and bearings, together with a reinforced crank contact area, improve long-term reliability and reduce the risk of blade separation.

The tool includes an electric brake, anti-restart function, battery protection circuit and XPT water resistance for dependable operation in demanding outdoor conditions. An accessible lubrication point simplifies maintenance, while the vertical clipping cleaner helps remove debris with a simple side-to-side motion.
