Makita XGT 40V 21″ Commercial Lawn Mower

Landscapers are demanding more cordless alternatives to gas-powered outdoor power equipment. To meet that demand, Makita is expanding the line of cordless OPE to include the 40V max XGT® Brushless 21″ Self-Propelled Commercial Lawn Mower (GML01). With no gas, emissions, oil mixing, or pull starts, the 40V max XGT® Cordless Lawn Mower is a welcome solution  for landscapers.

The GML01 mower can cut up to 3/5 of an acre in 54 minutes or less with two 40V XGT® 4.0Ah batteries, or up to 1-1/5 acre with (2) 40V XGT® 8.0Ah batteries. It is powered by one 40V XGT® battery, with the ability to carry two batteries allowing the GML01 extended run time using the Auto-Switching two-bay battery system.

XGT® is a system of equipment, tools, batteries, and chargers utilizing 40V max lithium-ion batteries. XGT® is engineered to deliver high power to take on high-demand applications, allowing users to completely transition to a cordless job site. XGT® is equipped with advanced brushless motor engineering, intelligent digital communication, and superior durability features to outpower, outsmart and outlast the rest.

There are 3 feature models of the GML01 Cordless Lawn Mower. The choices are no batteries, (2) 4.0Ah batteries and charger, and (2) 8.0Ah batteries and charger. All three models come with standard accessories of 21″ mower blade, and discharge slot plugs for mulching or side discharge. Options for the Makita GML01 are:

With no gas, emissions, oil mixing, or pull starts, the 40V max XGT® Cordless Lawn Mower is a welcome solution for landscapers.

The GML01 mower features a Makita-built brushless motor that delivers up to 2,800 RPM, a commercial grade steel deck, and a 3-in-1 design that allows for mulching, bagging, or rear discharge. Rear-wheel drive self-propelled technology provides improved traction and improved performance on incline slopes and uneven terrain. It also features large 9” wheels with steel ball bearings to provide a smoother drive with better maneuverability and increased durability.

The mower can cut up to 3/5 of an acre in 54 minutes or less with two 40V XGT® 4.0Ah batteries, or up to 1-1/5 acre with (2) 40V XGT® 8.0Ah batteries. It is powered by one 40V XGT® battery, with the ability to carry two batteries allowing the GML01 extended run time using the Auto-Switching two-bay battery system.

Convenience features include a rubberized soft grip handle bar for added comfort, a folding handle for easy transportation and compact upright storage, and a single lever that quickly adjusts cutting height from 1-1/4” to 4”. It is equipped with a rear discharge cover with a mulching plug included. Quiet mode can be engaged which reduces noise by providing constant speed control.

The GML01 features Makita® Extreme Protection Technology (XPT™). XPT™ is a protective seal inside the tool and is engineered for improved operation in harsh conditions by channeling water and dust from key internal components. It is IPX4-rated for weather-resistant construction and durability.
