The Makita UR013GT201 is a professional cordless brush cutter kit built for heavy grass and brush where a string trimmer falls short. Powered by the 40Vmax XGT platform, its 1.5 kW brushless motor delivers cutting force comparable to a 35cc gas model—without fuel mixing, pull starts, or engine service. Two operating speeds up to 6,700 RPM let users match output to growth conditions, and a variable-speed lever helps hold a steady pace on long passes. The bike-handle layout gives stable control on slopes and large lots, while an electric brake stops the blade in about 3–5 seconds. Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT) monitors for sudden speed drops and shuts the tool down to help prevent kickback. IPX4 weather resistance, soft start, and a current limiter round out a durable, job-ready setup. This kit includes two 5.0Ah batteries, a rapid charger, and a 10″ star blade so crews can start clearing right away.

Crews running large properties benefit from the UR013GT201’s cutting width and gas-class output while avoiding carb tune-ups and fuel costs. The bike handle and variable-speed lever provide steady, predictable passes along fence lines and ditches. When vegetation thickens, operators bump to the high setting for 6,700 RPM, then use reverse rotation to clear tangles and keep moving. AFT, soft start, and the electric brake support confident handling near rocks and posts, and IPX4 sealing helps the day continue through wet grass or light rain. With two 5.0Ah batteries and a rapid charger in the box, managers can cycle packs and keep production up across multiple crews or properties.

Why Customers Choose the Makita 40Vmax XGT Brushless Cordless 10″ Brush Cutter Kit
Grounds crews pick the UR013GT201 kit because it combines cordless brush cutter convenience with the cutting strength users expect from a 35cc gas machine. The bike handle improves stability on long stretches, while the variable-speed lever and two-stage output let operators conserve battery in light grass and push hard through dense patches. AFT, soft start, and an electric brake translate to better control around fencing and rock edges. With reverse rotation to clear tangles, an electronic current limiter for protection, and IPX4 weather resistance, the tool stays productive in real conditions. The included (2) 5.0Ah batteries and rapid charger keep runtime predictable and help teams standardize on the 40V XGT platform across their outdoor power equipment.
