## Description

The 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Cordless Grass Shear with Hedge Trimmer Blade, Tool Only (XMU04ZX), is a compact and cordless solution for grass trimming and cutting. Easily change from grass shear to hedge trimmer for minor hedge trimming. The XMU04ZX has dual blade action and a wide 6-5/16” cutting width and delivers faster blade speed (2, 500 strokes per minute/SPM) than the previous model. When using a fast-charging 18V LXT 5. 0Ah battery (sold separately), users will get up to 200 minutes of run time on a single charge. It has 3-stage adjustment so the cutting height can be matched to the application. Additional features include a rubberized soft grip handle, tool-less blade changing, non-electrolyzed nickel-plated blades to resist staining and rusting, and a compact size at only 4. 1 lbs. (with battery, sold separately). It’s part of Makita’s expanding 18V Lithium-Ion System, the world’s largest cordless tool system powered by 18V lithium-ion slide-style batteries. Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries have the fastest charge times in their categories, so they spend more time working and less time sitting on the charger. For improved tool performance and extended battery life, Makita created Star Protection Computer Controls . Star Protection is communication technology that allows the Star Protection-equipped tool and battery to exchange data in real time and monitor conditions during use to protect against overloading, over-discharging and overheating. For increased versatility, the tool can also be powered by Makita 18V LXT Lithium-Ion Batteries with the star symbol on the battery indicating Star Protection inside.

Review: Makita makes some of the best power tools on the market! - I have an ornamental grass garden and once they go dormant in the winter I have to cut them down to just above ground level. These cutters are great for that task and only a larger, heavier duty hedge trimmer would be better.
Review: Cuts Like a Trooper Using the Hedge Trimmer Blade - I just love this Makita with the hedge trimmer blade attachment. So much so that I purchased a second one for use in our Local Forest Garden. It does the heavy work around trees and bushes that we can't get into with our weed whackers. That way we can protect that drip irrigation lines. I use the hedge trimmer attachment for heavy grass. BUT BE CAREFUL. This is not a toy, and it is very easy to injure yourself if you don't pay close attention. The blades are extremely sharp. I managed to almost cut the tip of my thumb clear off. Battery life is super. Weight makes it easy to handle for long periods of time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Time saver!
*by D***A on March 11, 2021*

I bought these grass shears to cut down the ornamental grasses shown in the pictures. It used to take me a couple of hours using hand clippers to cut these grasses down in the spring. I used the Makita with the grass clippers attachment, and it worked great! It was like giving a haircut. I was able to do all 12 plants in about a half hour. I was worried after reading some reviews that it would bind, but I had no problems other than when I got a piece of bark caught in the blades. They would not work for cutting anything very thick, but they work great on grasses. I considered buying some of the less expensive shears on Amazon, but decided to spend a little more because I have Makita drills and their quality is excellent. I was very happy that I was able to use the previous generation of 18v batteries that my drills came with on these shears. I haven't tried the hedge clipper attachment. Some of the reviews talk about how tough it is to switch between attachments. After watching a YouTube video on how to change the attachments, it was easy and didn't take long at all. I would recommend this Makita tool for anyone wanting an easy way to trim grasses.
