Makita 40V max X2 (80V) XGT Cordless Brush Cutter — Bare Tool
Product Overview
The Makita 40V max X2 (80V) XGT Cordless Brush Cutter is a high-output professional cutting tool designed for clearing thick grass, weeds, brush, and other dense vegetation. It uses two 40V max XGT batteries to deliver an 80V max system, providing the power needed for demanding outdoor applications without the noise, exhaust, fuel, or maintenance associated with a gas-powered brush cutter.
A brushless motor provides efficient power delivery, while multiple speed settings allow the operator to adjust cutting performance to suit the vegetation and accessory being used. The tool is also equipped with electronic protection features and a variable-speed trigger for improved control.
This bare-tool model does not include batteries or a charger, making it a practical choice for users who already own Makita 40V max XGT batteries and charging equipment.

40V max X2 XGT Power
The brush cutter operates using two 40V max XGT batteries simultaneously, creating an 80V max power system. This configuration is designed for high-demand outdoor work where strong cutting performance is required.
Makita's XGT platform uses electronic communication between the tool and battery to help manage power delivery and protect the system during demanding operation.
Brushless Motor Technology
The brushless motor eliminates conventional carbon brushes, reducing components that wear during normal operation. This allows the motor to deliver power efficiently while requiring less routine maintenance than traditional brushed motor designs.
The combination of a brushless motor and dual XGT battery configuration provides the cordless power needed for clearing dense vegetation and heavier brush.
Variable Speed for Better Control
The variable-speed trigger allows the operator to adjust the cutting attachment's speed according to the task. Lower speeds can be useful for lighter vegetation and improved control, while higher speeds can provide greater cutting performance when dealing with thicker growth.
Multiple speed settings also allow the tool to be adapted to different cutting conditions and accessories.
Active Feedback-Sensing Technology
Makita's Active Feedback-Sensing Technology (AFT) monitors the tool's rotation. If the cutting attachment suddenly stops due to binding or another abrupt condition, the system is designed to shut down the motor to help reduce the risk of uncontrolled rotation.
This electronic safety feature is particularly valuable when clearing dense vegetation where cutting attachments can occasionally encounter hidden resistance.
Reverse Rotation System
Vegetation can become wrapped around the cutting attachment during operation. The reverse function allows the operator to temporarily reverse blade or attachment rotation to help clear accumulated grass and weeds.
This can reduce the need to manually stop and remove tangled vegetation during clearing work.
Electric Brake
An integrated electric brake quickly stops the cutting attachment when the trigger is released. This helps improve control when moving between cutting areas and when the operator needs to stop the tool quickly.
Electronic Overload Protection
Dense brush can place significant loads on the cutting system. Electronic overload protection helps monitor operating conditions and can reduce the risk of damage when the tool is subjected to excessive load.
Combined with XGT battery protection, these electronic systems are designed to support reliable operation during demanding outdoor work.
Quieter, Cleaner Cordless Operation
Unlike gas-powered brush cutters, the XGT cordless system does not require gasoline or produce exhaust emissions during operation. It also eliminates the need for fuel mixing, spark-plug maintenance, and routine engine servicing.
The lower operating noise of a battery-powered system can make it more suitable for applications where noise is a consideration, although appropriate hearing and personal protective equipment should still be used.
Designed for Professional Vegetation Management
The brush cutter is intended for applications where a conventional string trimmer may not provide sufficient cutting performance. It can be used with appropriate compatible cutting attachments for clearing heavier vegetation and brush.
The dual-battery configuration provides high-output cordless capability while maintaining the mobility of a battery-powered tool.
Ideal Applications
The Makita 40V max X2 (80V) XGT Cordless Brush Cutter is suitable for:
- Clearing thick grass
