Makita's Multi Function Garden Tool
Posted by Katy | Toolstop on 15th Mar 2022
Makita introduces a multi functional garden power tool that allows you to interchange multiple garden attachments with the one power shaft.
One Tool, Multiple Applications
Makita just launched a multi functional garden power tool that's going to completely change the gardening game. With this one tool, you can mix and match multiple gardening accessories depending on the job at hand, saving you both time and money.
This cost-competitive system means no more bulky tools lying around the shed. One shaft will accomodate multiple add-ons such as brushcutter, grass trimmer and pole saw attachments.
Simply buy the shaft and then the opportunities are endless!
How Does It Work?
Step 1: Choose your power head
Makita has released 3 multi function shafts. Depending on the applications you will need it for and the amount of runtime you need, you can choose from 18V, 36V or 40V.
All models feature fully brushless motors, variable speed control, Active Feedback Sensing Technology (AFT) (shuts down the tool if the rotation speed suddenly slows down) and an electric brake.
Not to mention that accessory changes are tool-less! Tool-less installation of attachments makes it extremely quick and easy to switch from one tool to the other, meaning you can complete all your garden tasks at once. Gardening has never been so easy!
