Makita DUM111ZX 18V Li-ion LXT 110mm Grass Shears Complete with Head Trimmer Attachment – Batteries and Charger Not Included

I bought this to replace a similar Von Haus grass trimmer (pin specific charger broken, company unable to supply separately and not worth the money to replace the whole thing) so decided to upgrade to this Makita one. This is by far and away much better build quality and does a much better job trimming. It's a bit of a faff changing heads as others have said, the instruction pictures are rubbish but once you have the hang of it, easy enough to do although does require loosening screws and flipping the motor so be warned it's not a simple on the go change. Slightly heavy due to the battery at the base but lasts really well. The hedge trimmer does a fantastic job with privet type branches, does struggle a bit more with thicker raspberry cane type branches. Only used once but so far so good and am happy with my purchase.

Fantastic , does exactly what it says , great quality . Expect nothing less - it is Makita after all . Very impressed ,easy to use . Buy it!!

Good tool to have and value for money if you’re already into the Makita family and have the battery. The switchover between blades is very fiddly and a poor design. It cuts grass and hedges well, obviously struggles when you hit an established branch but that’s to be expected. Lightweight even with the battery attached and runs for a long time. Happy with it. Only downside is the swap between blades.

Great little trimmer. Bought it for the edges of the grass in the garden. Daughter loves using it. She's 10. Haven't tried out the hedge cutter but its simple enough to swap. Power output is great. Last for a long time off of an old 3ah battery. Really impressive.

Makes short work of awkward corners and edges the lawnmower can't reach. Easy to hold, works fast, and cuts cleanly. An excellent accessory to the Makita cordless lawnmowers using the same batteries.

Bit awkward to change blade but ok. Very useful on hedge

Decided to buy this for light trimming using just one hand due to recent shoulder op, plus I already own other Makita tools using the same batteries. Including the battery it comes in at over 2kg (5lb) so not ultra lightweight. AS I don't need the (fitted from new) shears head I swapped out to the trimmer head supplied. I provided some pix as the manual is about average for all new products. The swap out is straight forward as long as a. you turn the removable cam plate over, b. you turn the motor pin plate 90 degrees (across the main body of the machine), c. you make sure that the trimmer drive plate is fully in place before tightening the 2 screws. Even when you do all of that the cover plate is still a complete faff to refit - must work harder on a more sensible design Makita. Good value for the cost

I bought this for my postage stamp lawn but so far I've only used the hedge trimmer but that is impressive! I trimmed 20 ft of pine hedge which took me about 20 minutes. I filled a large trugg with clippings and still had 4 bars on the battery. The important points I'd like to make are 1. After use, I advise that you disassemble the hedge trimmer attachment and clean thoroughly and regrease. 2. When swapping between grass and hedge attachments, the cam assembly needs to be turned the other way up - the side with the oval indentation must be showing for the grass attachment and underneath for the hedge attachment. Make sure it is pushed fully home so that the centre spindle protrudes a few millimetres. Also, the blades may need to be jiggled in order to fit around the cam assembly. Typical Makita top quality! Update 17 Oct 2023 - I have used the grass shears and they worked a treat.

Excelente, lo uso para emparejar el pasto, después de usar la desbrozadora, y para detallar los cajetes de los árboles. Es un equipo práctico, si ya cuentas con baterías de 18v de Makita, es una gran opción, ya que no incluye batería. Excelente para tareas de jardinería.

Ok

Uno dei migliori acquisti. Così non devo usare il decespugliatore o il tagliasiepi. .. e mia moglie si arrangia con i suoi fiori, la siepe delle aromatiche, ecc . Che figata! Ovviamente abbiamo tutti gli altri attrezzi Makita con svariate batterie.

franchement très efficace sur la taille gazon et les bordures, pas de ralentissement ! je suis ravis, j'en avais marre de le faire à la cisaille à gazon.

Ich muß regelmäßig eine ca. 10 m lange Rasenkante neben meiner Garage in Form bringen. Das habe ich bisher mit dem Rasentrimmer gemacht, das ging zwar im Stehen, dafür lag der Rasenschnitt danach überall verteilt auf den Rasengittersteinen herum und ließ sich nur schlecht entfernen. Deshalb der Kauf der Grasschere. Man arbeitet zwar gebückt, aber für die paar Meter ist das kein Problem. Dafür hat die Grasschere den Vorteil, daß der Rasenschnitt vor dem Plexiglasschild zusammengeschoben wird und immer gleich in einer kleinen Kiste gesammelt werden kann. Kein lästiges Fegen mehr, die Arbeit ist in der halben Zeit erledigt und man muß keinen Schneidfaden wechseln wie beim Trimmer. Da ich schon mehrere Makita - Geräte habe, brauchte ich auch nur die Grasschere ohne Ladegerät und Akku. Die Schere ist robust und scharf, hat eine breitere Schnittbahn als andere Modelle und schneidet sauber. Die Reinigung ist einfach, da die Bodenplatte mit einer kleinen Drehung entriegelt und das doppelte Scherblatt in einem Stück abgenommen werden kann. An die Schere kann alternativ auch ein kurzes Heckenscherenblatt für kleine Korrekturschnitte montiert werden. Der Preis ist angemessen, ich würde die Grasschere wieder kaufen.
