Description
Landscapers and contractors are demanding more cordless alternatives to corded and gas-powered outdoor power equipment. Makita is meeting demand with an expanding line of cordless OPE, including the Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Hedge Trimmer (model DUH523SM). With zero emissions, lower noise, and considerably less maintenance, the DUH523SM is a welcome solution for trimming applications. The DUH523SM has a Makita-built motor that delivers 2,700 SPM and a 22 inch blade for increased cutting capacity. The DUH523SM will run up to 1-1/2 hours on the low setting on a single charge using an 18V LXT 4.0Ah battery. Cordless technology also means lower noise, and at only 87 dB(A) the DUH523SM is 25% quieter than other cordless hedge trimmers.
