## Description

Makita’s twin-battery power system that utilises two 18v Lithium-Ion batteries in combination to deliver 36v power, is being increasingly used in the expanding range of Makita grounds maintenance, landscaping and gardening tools for professional grounds care operators. Two 18v batteries are directly installed on the machines to supply energy to theie powerful 36v DC motors. The DUH551 is a twin 18v hedge trimmer with a 550mm blade that is suitable for cutting branches up to 18mm in diameter. It runs much quieter than petrol alternatives and has a soft start motor to negate the recoil of the powerful motor on startup. Other benefits include variable speed control, a fast acting electric brake and a 5-position rotating rear handle.
