Product Information

Full details

The Makita DUN600LRTE Pole Hedge Trimmer is designed for landscaping professionals and serious homeowners tackling tall and long hedges. Its primary benefit is the extended reach and ergonomic design that reduces fatigue during extended use, combined with a powerful brushless motor for efficient cutting. A potential caveat is its weight when batteries are attached, requiring proper handling technique. Key features include a brushless motor for durability and consistent power, a reverse rotation system for clearing jammed branches, and a lightweight, long-reach design for enhanced maneuverability.

Troubleshooting

Tool does not start

Ensure batteries are fully charged and properly inserted. Check if the battery protection circuit has engaged; allow the tool and battery to cool down if overheated. Verify safety lock-off lever is engaged.
