The Makita UR014GT202 is a pro-grade cordless line trimmer kit that delivers gas-like cutting power without fuel, pull starts, or engine maintenance. Built on the 40Vmax XGT platform, its 1.5 kW brushless motor provides performance comparable to a 35cc gas model, while two operating speeds (up to 5,700 RPM) let users match output to growth conditions. A 17-3/4″ cutting width paired with a bump-feed trimmer head covers more ground per pass for efficient trimming along fences, beds, and open turf. Control and safety features include a variable-speed lever to hold the desired pace, Active Feedback-sensing Technology (AFT) to shut the tool down if a sudden speed drop is detected, and an electric brake that stops the head in about 3–5 seconds. The loop handle design improves maneuverability around landscaping, and IPX4 construction supports use in wet conditions. This kit ships ready to work with (2) 5.0Ah XGT batteries and a rapid charger, plus the accessories needed to start trimming the same day.
