Makita LM004GZ XGT - 40V Battery-powered Lawn Mower - 43 cm cut - WITHOUT BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER

The Makita LM004GZ cordless lawnmower is the ideal choice for garden enthusiasts looking for efficiency, manoeuvrability and environment friendliness.

This model, part of the prestigious XGT® 40Vmaxline, offers a cutting width of 43 cm and eight cutting height positions (20 to 75 mm), guaranteeing precision in every context.

Equipped with advanced technology, this battery-powered mower ensures high performance with low environmental impact:

No harmful emissions and reduced noise for use in sensitive areas such as campsites or tourist farms.

The Makita LM004GM103 lawnmower includes a practical 50 L container for collecting or mulching, offering versatility and ease of use thanks to its ergonomic design.

Included in the package, you will find a battery and charger, making it immediately ready for use.

Main features:

• XGT® 40Vmax platform
• Cutting width: 43 cm
• Cutting height: from 20 to 75 mm
• Grass collector capacity: 50 L
• Technology with low environmental impact

BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER NOT INCLUDED

The battery compartment is in the frontal part of the machine.

Simply lift the cover with the proper release and remove the battery for charging it.

The 40 V Makita lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time (just like the batteries of modern smartphones, no memory effect) so it is always ready to use. They last on average 30 times more than a standard battery. The battery is equipped with a comfortable charge indicator.

Advantages of the battery-powered electric engine

• More reliable than an internal combustion engine, thanks to its electric motor. No spark plug, filters, oil dipstick, carburettors, etc. that is components which can cause problems.
• Much lighter
• Zero maintenance, for all the above-mentioned reasons
• Lower consumption and drastically reduced operating costs compared to petrol engine models (great cutting results with minimal power required). In addition, the operator won’t have to constantly buy fuel (that should always be fresh).
• Zero vibrations thanks to the electric motor. Instead, almost all combustion machines, which are not equipped with an anti-vibration system on steel springs, have a very high degree of vibrations, making the work quite unpleasant.
• Zero smoke emission, zero impact on the environment and, above all, on the operator’s health.
• Much quieter and therefore pleasant to use than an internal combustion engine.

BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER NOT INCLUDED

The machine is a traditional 3 in 1 lawn mower, provided with rear discharge, grass collection and mulching cutting systems.

The lawn mower is equipped with an ABS plastic housing and a 43 cm cutting width.

The machine weights 15 kg.

The blade is entirely made of steel and ensures a 43 cm cutting width.

GRASS COLLECTION SYSTEM

Standard grass collection system:

50 L grass collector capacity

REAR DISCHARGE SYSTEM

This system allows mowing without using the grass collector, discharging the grass clippings directly from the back of the lawn mower.

Simply remove the grass collector to operate with the rear discharge.

MULCHING CUTTING SYSTEM

This system allows crushing the grass clippings into a fine powder before dropping them directly on the lawn, making them a natural fertilizer. Simply blocks the opening where grass clippings pass through when collected into the grass collector.

Simply remove the grass collector to operate with the mulching cutting system.

BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER NOT INCLUDED

The controls of the lawn mower are placed on the top of the handlebar.

The foldable handlebar allows easily storing the machine even in thigh spaces.

Lifting handle.

Centralised cutting height adjustment by means of the proper lever in 8 different positions.

Minimum height: 20 mm
Maximum height: 75 mm

Wheel Size:
Front wheel: 140 mm
Rear wheel: 165 mm

The actual mowing area may be significantly lower than the value declared by the manufacturer, which is calculated under standard operating conditions with dry grass of medium to low height. When cutting tall or wild grass, not maintained in an English lawn style, as well as grass that is damp or particularly dense, the workload increases and the motor requires higher energy consumption, resulting in a reduction of the effective battery autonomy.

The value declared by the manufacturer is instead fully reliable under favorable mowing conditions, namely on a regularly maintained lawn with dry grass that is not excessively tall and not wild, corresponding to the standard conditions used in laboratory testing.

When mowing is carried out regularly, cutting a limited and well-maintained layer of grass, preferably in the afternoon when the lawn is almost free of moisture, operating performance may be in line with the declared figures and, in some cases, even higher than stated by the manufacturer.

The cutting mode also affects energy consumption: grass collection and mulching require greater blade effort compared to rear discharge. The condition of the blade also plays a role, as a dull edge increases friction and reduces the number of square meters that can be effectively mowed on a single charge.

Other factors depend on ground conditions. Slopes and uneven terrain require higher torque, and activation of the drive system (if present) leads to continuous energy absorption, significantly reducing effective working time. Non-ideal temperatures, battery age, and repeated restarts or tight maneuvers further reduce the available autonomy.

Under non-optimal operating conditions, the difference between the declared mowing area and the actual workable surface therefore originates from the increased load placed on the motor, blade, and drive system.

The following shows the achievable mowing areas based on the battery capacity used:

BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER NOT INCLUDED

The lawn mower is designed and intended exclusively for cutting grass in garden areas (and not on other types of terrain). The surface must be level, free from irregularities, stones, or other solid objects, and covered with maintained lawn grass (therefore, not uncultivated or spontaneous vegetation). Grass should be cut regularly and must not be allowed to grow beyond 25–30 cm, as most lawn mowers are no longer capable of cutting at this height. Slopes exceeding 15% (equivalent to 9°) must be avoided, except when using 4x4 models.

For heavier-duty tasks involving spontaneous vegetation, grass taller than the above-mentioned limits, or rougher surfaces than a garden, please consider alternative product categories such as Petrol Flail Mowers or Brush Cutters.

Furthermore, grass must only be cut when both the lawn and the underlying soil are completely dry. Mowing should be carried out exclusively in dry weather, well away from periods of rain or irrigation, and preferably in the afternoon, when the grass is no longer affected by morning humidity. Wet grass tends to bend under the blades, which reduces cutting efficiency, increases the risk of clogging inside the deck, and subjects the engine to excessive strain.
