Brushless Cordless Power Head with 17 Inch String Trimmer
Makita 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless Couple Shaft Power Head Kit with 17" String Trimmer Attachment
The Makita 40V max XGT Brushless Cordless Couple Shaft Power Head Kit with 17" String Trimmer Attachment is a versatile outdoor power system designed for professional landscaping and property maintenance. The GUX01JM1X1 combines a high-output brushless power head with a 17-inch string trimmer attachment, delivering performance comparable to a 30cc gas string trimmer while providing the convenience of cordless operation.
Rather than being limited to one attachment, the couple-shaft power head can accept a range of compatible Makita attachments for applications such as trimming, edging, cultivating, and brush cutting. A lever-style locking system allows attachments to be changed without tools, making the system adaptable to different landscaping tasks.
Key Features
- 40V max XGT Power: Delivers performance comparable to a 30cc gas string trimmer.
- Brushless Motor: Provides efficient power delivery, durability, and reduced maintenance.
- 17" Cutting Swath: Covers a broad area with each trimming pass.
- Three-Speed Operation: Offers 4,200, 6,000, and 7,100 RPM settings for power and runtime management.
- Variable-Speed Trigger: Allows the operator to regulate cutting speed according to the application.
- Couple-Shaft System: Accepts a range of compatible Makita attachments for multiple landscaping tasks.
- Tool-Less Attachment Change: Lever-style locking system allows quick attachment installation and removal.
- Cordless Operation: Eliminates gasoline, fuel mixing, and extension cords.
- Lower Noise and Zero Direct Emissions: Provides a cleaner and quieter alternative to comparable gas-powered equipment.
- XGT Battery Compatibility: Works with Makita 40V max XGT lithium-ion batteries.
- Rapid Charging: The included XGT Rapid Charger can fully charge the included 4.0Ah battery in approximately 50 minutes or less.
17-Inch String Trimmer Attachment
The included EM405MP 17-inch string trimmer attachment provides a 17-inch cutting swath, making it suitable for maintaining grass, weeds, and general vegetation around lawns, properties, and landscaping areas.
The attachment connects directly to the GUX01 power head through Makita's couple-shaft system. This lets users switch from string trimming to other compatible attachments when the job requires a different type of outdoor tool.
Versatile Couple-Shaft System
One of the main advantages of the GUX01 system is its ability to operate multiple attachments from a single power head. Compatible attachments can expand the system beyond string trimming to applications such as:
- Grass trimming
- Edging
- Brush cutting
- Cultivating
- Other compatible landscaping tasks
The lever-style locking mechanism allows attachments to be installed and removed without requiring tools, helping reduce downtime when changing between applications.
Three-Speed Power Management
The power head provides three selectable operating speeds:
| Setting | No-Load Speed |
|---|---|
| Low | 4,200 RPM |
| Medium | 6,000 RPM |
| High | 7,100 RPM |
The variable-speed trigger provides additional control within the selected range. This allows the operator to balance cutting performance and battery runtime based on vegetation density and the task at hand.
XGT Cordless Performance
The 40V max XGT system is designed for high-demand cordless outdoor equipment. The GUX01 power head delivers the performance of a 30cc gas string trimmer while eliminating the need for fuel and pull-starting. It also produces zero direct emissions during operation and offers lower operating noise than comparable gas-powered equipment.
Comfortable and Practical Operation
The power head has an overall length of approximately 71-3/4 inches, providing a practical reach for ground-level vegetation. The tool weighs approximately 11 lb without a battery and 13.2 lb with a battery, according to Makita's specifications for the 4.0Ah kit.
