Makita UH020G 40v Max XGT Cordless Brushless Hedge Trimmer 500mm
The Makita UH020G is a professional-grade cordless hedge trimmer designed for efficient hedge and shrub maintenance. Part of Makita's advanced 40V max XGT platform, this brushless model combines powerful performance with cordless convenience, making it ideal for landscapers, groundscare professionals, and estate maintenance contractors tackling regular trimming work.
Powered by an efficient brushless motor, the UH020G delivers 460W output with 4,200 strokes per minute for fast, clean cutting through branches up to 20mm thick. The 500mm double-sided blade features triple-ground teeth for precise results on both forward and reverse strokes, whilst the aluminium guide-bar keeps the overall weight down to just 2.3kg — reducing operator fatigue during extended trimming sessions.
Built for demanding outdoor environments, the trimmer incorporates eXtreme Protection Technology (XPT) for enhanced dust and water resistance. An integrated electric brake stops the blade quickly when the trigger is released, improving both safety and productivity. The reverse function clears jammed branches efficiently, whilst constant speed control maintains consistent cutting performance regardless of load. The anti-restart function provides additional protection against accidental start-up.
The 30mm tooth spacing and 20mm maximum blade opening make this trimmer suitable for maintaining established hedges, shaping garden borders, and general shrub trimming across residential and commercial properties.

Battery AH Explained
The best way to describe battery amp hour is that this is effectively the size of your fuel tank, the more amp hours your battery has then the longer the battery will last between charges. More amp hours does not increase the power of a given tool.
Battery Voltage Explained
A tool with a higher voltage than another is a bit like choosing an engine in a car, the higher voltage will generally mean higher power & performance. As with cars though a bigger engine does not always translate to better performance so it is important to compare the specifications of tools at different voltages between different manufacturers.
