Makita UR014GZ - Battery-powered Brush Cutter - 40V - 4 Ah

The Makita UR014GZ 40Vmax brush cutter is a powerful and versatile tool, designed to tackle mowing jobs in difficult terrain such as uneven trails, descents, areas near waterways, roads and cycle paths.

One of its strengths is ergonomics, which allows the user to work comfortably for prolonged periods, in any environmental condition.

This is made possible thanks to electronic management that ensures security and adaptability to different operational needs.

Among its main functions, the brush cutter includes an "electric brake" and an automatic motor stop system in case of accidental blockage of the head, thus increasing safety for the operator.

In addition, it is possible to adjust the motor speed according to the type of work to be carried out, ensuring both safety and a high level of comfort and productivity.

The brushless engine (BL) of this brush cutter offers high performance, with powers up to 1500W.

The speed can be adjusted between 3500 and 4700 rpm thanks to a special lever, which the operator can use to adapt to various working conditions.

The brush cutter also offers the possibility of using a cutting wire with a diameter of 45 cm, ensuring a large working area.

In terms of performance, this model is comparable to a brush cutter with a 35cc endothermic engine, but with the significant advantage of producing zero emissions, making it a greener option.

Another notable feature is the ability to adjust the direction of rotation of the head, left or right, depending on the specific cutting needs or conditions.

With this machine, you have the following advantages:

• No power cables needed
• Zero emissions
• Extremely reduced noise level
• Great manoeuvrability and comfort

1 LITHIUM-ION BATTERY AND BATTERY CHARGER INCLUDED

Batteries equipped with quick release: the battery can be easily detached and pulled out from the machine by pressing the quick release button.

Voltage: 40 V
Amperage: 4 Ah

The practical battery can be recharged at any time, no memory effect (it does not have a tendency to run out after many refills) to always have great power.

Handy battery charger included (connection to the home mains as the one of a standard mobile phone).

The batteries are plugged to the battery charger through the quick release, in the same way as it is connected to the machine.

It is also possible to purchase additional batteries for ensuring a long running time.

So you only need one battery and one charger to be able to use the entire 40V range produced by Makita.

LONGER LIFE: up to 3 times higher than nickel–cadmium batteries, reducing the need to recharge during long periods of use.
Ideal for medium-large gardens.

FULL CHARGE FOR THE ENTIRE BATTERY LIFE: the charge of the lithium-ion batteries does not fade. Unlike nickel-cadmium batteries, which power gradually decreases, lithium-ion batteries, cells maintain constant power throughout the entire cycle. The same charge for the entire cycle without reducing the motor speed. The battery is running at full power until its complete exhaustion.

LONGER CHARGE LIFE: lithium-Ion batteries last 3–4 times longer than traditional Nickel-Cadmium batteries and their power storage lasts longer so they lose less power. Lithium-ion batteries can be recharged up to 2000 times!

LIGHTWEIGHT: Lithium-ion batteries have the best power-weight rate. They weight 1/3 of nickel-cadmium ones.

ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY: Lithium-ion battery-powered tools are recyclable and are produced without heavy metals.

NO MEMORY EFFECT: lithium-ion batteries can be recharged at any time without negative memory effect. Indeed, they don't fail to provide maximum power even after hundreds of charge cycles.
Few minutes of charge are enough to complete the work.

LOW DISCHARGE RATE: low loss of charge rate (up to 5 times lower than nickel-cadmium batteries) so your machine will be ready to use even after months of storage.

BATTERY CHARGER: lithium-ion batteries chargers allow reducing energy consumption by an average of 35%.

Advantages of the electric motor:

• More reliable than a petrol model. No spark plug, filters, oil dipstick, carburettors, etc. or components which can cause problems.
• Zero maintenance, for the same reasons given before.
• Lighter
• Lower consumption and drastically reduced operating costs compared to internal combustion engines (great results with minimal power required). In addition, the Operator won’t have to buy the fuel (that it should always be fresh).
• Zero vibrations, thanks to the electric motor. Instead, almost all engine-powered 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 fumes, zero impact on the environment and, above all, zero repercussions on the Operator’s health.
• Quieter and therefore pleasant to use than an internal combustion engine.

In addition, this brush cutter in particular is equipped with the Active System technology, a security system that instantly stop the rotation of the engine and transmission as soon as it will impact a solid object while using the steel blade. This will help prevent damage to the machine and especially the operator.

The "tap & go" brush cutter head is an accessory designed to greatly improve efficiency and ease of use during mowing work.

This head is specifically designed for use with nylon wire, with a remarkable diameter of 125 mm, which allows you to cover a large cutting area with each step.

It can hold up to 2.7 mm x 2 meters, thus offering excellent durability and reducing the need for frequent replacements.

This is especially useful in long-lasting work or on soils that require more intensive cutting.

Another important aspect of this head is its 10T SPLINE attachment.

This makes it compatible with the specific model of brush cutter UR014G, ensuring simple and safe assembly.

The 10T SPLINE attachment ensures that the head is securely connected to the brush cutter, minimising vibration and improving cutting accuracy.

The "tap & go" design of the head is particularly appreciated for its ease of use.

With a simple touch of the ground, the user can release more wire, thus avoiding frequent interruptions of work to manually adjust the length of the wire.

This feature makes the operation smoother and less strenuous, especially during prolonged work sessions.

The machine is equipped with:

* The batteries can be used

• In series
• The voltages (V) are summed up
• The capacity (Ah) IS NOT summed up
• In parallel
• The voltages (V) ARE NOT summed up
• The capacity (Ah) is summed up

The transmission shaft of the brush cutter features a diameter of 24 mm and is made of aluminium. This makes it very long-lasting and lightweight at the same time.

Ergonomic handle.

The controls are convenient, simple and intuitive, with 3 electronic speeds.
