UV001GU201
Cordless Scarifier 40V max XGT® BL, 380 mm
with 2 x 4,0 Ah battery and fast charger
The Makita UV001GU201 cordless scarifier‑aerator is a professional tool designed for lawn care on areas up to 500 m². The model is powered by a high‑performance brushless motor with 1700 W equivalent output, has a working width of 38 cm, and offers 18‑position depth adjustment from –12 mm to +5 mm in 1 mm increments. The scarifier effectively removes moss, dry grass, thatch, and organic debris, collecting them in a 50‑litre fabric grass catcher. This not only cleans the surface but also thins out dense turf, ensuring that the roots get access to air, moisture, and nutrients. Scarifying with metal blades is recommended 1–2 times a year – in spring and autumn. For more frequent surface raking, an optional aerator attachment is available separately. The kit includes everything needed for immediate use: two BL4040F 4 Ah batteries and a DC40RB charger. The 4 Ah batteries charge to 100% in just 45 minutes, and the automatic switching system allows the two batteries to be used alternately – when one battery is depleted, the tool instantly switches to the other, significantly extending continuous runtime. This battery type is compatible with over 260 Makita tools from the XGT range, meaning it can be used not only with gardening equipment but also with impact drivers, rotary hammers, and other Makita tools. The tool features XPT technology for enhanced protection against dust and moisture, a foldable handle for compact storage, large 18 cm diameter wheels with ball bearings for excellent ground traction, and an electronic stability control system. All of this makes the Makita UV001GU201 a reliable helper for keeping your lawn healthy, lush, and emerald green.

Advantages
  • UV001G has been developed intended for thatching*1 and vertical cutting*2, both of which are essential for lawn maintenance, and designed to provide a working width of 380mm and a working depth of 12mm *1 For removing deposited lawn clippings, generated moss, etc. *2 For cutting through old roots for healthy lawn, etc.
  • Powered by 40Vmax XGT Li-Ion battery (two in parallel or one)
  • Automatic battery switching
  • If two batteries are installed and one battery in use has run out of power, the battery system automatically switches to the other one (No special operation, such as on/off operation, is required)
  • XPT (eXtreme Protection Technology)/IPX4-compatible
  • Battery capacity warning lamp • One red light for each of the two lights • Blinks in red when the battery capacity decreases to 20% or less of full charge • Lights up in solid red when the battery cannot discharge
  • Toolless handle height adjustment (2 stages)
  • Handle height can be adjusted without tool simply by pulling spring type Lock pin to release the lock (the same mechanism as that of DLM539)
  • Grass catcher capacity: 50L
  • Large Front/Rear tires with wheel diameter of 180/180mm
  • The same size Front/Rear tires provide an excellent balance of stable running performance (with front tires) and high turning performance (with rear tires)
  • Water-resistant cutting deck
  • The inside is washable
  • however, must not be washed with high-pressure water
  • Dial style working depth adjustment • Fine adjustment of working depth can be made by operating a dial, allowing for adjustment of working depth to suit the environment for lawn growth and wear of blade • The dial clicks in place every increment of 1mm depth
  • Two different blades available for different applications • Vertical cutter
  • For cutting through old roots for healthy lawn and cutting through thatch and soil for improved penetration of water and air • Thatching blade
  • For removing deposited lawn clippings, generated moss, etc.
  • Highly durable vertical cutter • Blunt angled blade tip slows blade wear to minimize the reduction in working depth • The slow wear reduces blade change frequency and running cost
  • Low vibration
  • The blades of Vertical cutter are arranged symmetrically about the left-right center line of the rotary blade shaft to provide balanced rotation for reduced vibration
