Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 24in Pole Hedge Trimmer Kit (5.0Ah)
The Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Brushless Cordless 24in Pole Hedge Trimmer Kit (XNU02T) is designed for professional landscape maintenance and trimming applications where extended reach and cordless mobility are important. Its long 24-inch dual-action, double-sided blade is suited to trimming overhead and low-lying hedges, while the pole configuration provides additional reach without requiring the operator to work as close to the hedge.
Powered by Makita's 18V LXT 5.0Ah Lithium-Ion battery system, the brushless motor delivers up to 4,400 strokes per minute (SPM). Three selectable speed settings allow the operator to balance cutting performance and battery efficiency according to the job. Makita rates the kit for up to 75 minutes of runtime with a fully charged 5.0Ah battery.
Key Features
- 24-inch dual-action, double-sided blade provides efficient hedge trimming.
- BL™ Brushless Motor delivers up to 4,400 SPM.
- Three speed settings: 2,000, 3,600, and 4,400 SPM.
- Maximum cutting capacity of 1 inch.
- Adjustable loop handle improves operator comfort and control.
- Commercial-duty gear case is engineered for durability during professional use.
- Designed for trimming overhead and low-lying hedges.
- Cordless operation eliminates gas, emissions, oil mixing, and pull starts.
- XPT™ Extreme Protection Technology helps improve resistance to dust and water in demanding conditions.
- Star Protection Computer Controls™ help protect the tool and battery against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.
- Kit includes two 18V LXT 5.0Ah batteries and a rapid charger.
Extended Reach for Hedge Maintenance
The XNU02T is a pole-style hedge trimmer designed to make it easier to reach elevated and lower hedges. Its 80-1/2-inch overall length provides substantially more reach than a conventional handheld hedge trimmer.
This configuration can be particularly useful for:
- Tall residential hedges
- Commercial landscaping
- Property maintenance
- Overhead hedge trimming
- Low-lying hedge maintenance
- General groundskeeping
The ergonomic design is intended to provide maneuverability and balance while working at extended reach.
24-Inch Dual-Action Blade
The trimmer uses a 24-inch double-sided, dual-action shear blade. The blade configuration allows cutting action from both sides, making it suitable for shaping and maintaining a variety of hedge types.
Makita specifies a 1-3/8-inch tooth spacing and a maximum cutting capacity of 1 inch for the XNU02.
Brushless Motor with Three Speed Settings
The BL™ Brushless Motor provides up to 4,400 SPM for fast cutting. The three available speed levels allow the user to select an appropriate cutting rate:
| Speed Setting | Speed |
|---|---|
| Low | 2,000 SPM |
| Medium | 3,600 SPM |
| High | 4,400 SPM |
Lower speeds can be useful when greater control is desired, while the higher settings provide faster cutting performance.
Up to 75 Minutes of Runtime
The kit includes 18V LXT 5.0Ah Lithium-Ion batteries. Makita rates the XNU02 for up to 75 minutes of runtime when using a fully charged 5.0Ah battery, although actual runtime will vary according to hedge density, branch size, speed setting, temperature, and other operating conditions.
Two batteries are included, providing a convenient way to extend working time by keeping a second battery available while the first is being used or charged.
Commercial-Duty Construction
The XNU02 features a commercial-duty gear case engineered for improved durability during daily professional use. This makes the tool appropriate for landscape contractors and property-maintenance professionals who need equipment designed for repeated operation.
XPT and Star Protection
Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™) is designed to improve resistance to dust and water entering critical internal components, helping the tool perform more reliably in demanding outdoor environments.
The tool also incorporates Star Protection Computer Controls™. When paired with a compatible Star Protection battery, the system monitors operating conditions and can help protect against overloading, over-discharging, and overheating.
Cordless Alternative to Gas Equipment
The XNU02T eliminates several inconveniences associated with gas-powered hedge trimmers. There is no gasoline to mix, no oil to add, and no pull-start procedure.
The battery-powered design also produces zero direct emissions during operation and generally produces less operating noise than comparable gas equipment.
