The Makita LM002GT204 is a professional-grade cordless lawn mower designed for homeowners, garden enthusiasts, and light landscaping professionals who demand power, efficiency, and convenience. This 2025 model comes complete with the Makita XGT 40 V max battery system, including two high-capacity batteries and a rapid charger, providing extended runtime for uninterrupted mowing sessions. It is ideal for medium to large lawns, parks, and commercial properties where cordless mobility, high efficiency, and professional-quality results are essential.
The LM002GT204 combines cutting-edge battery technology with advanced engineering. Its brushless motor ensures smooth, reliable, and quiet operation while reducing wear and tear, requiring minimal maintenance compared to traditional petrol-powered mowers. The brushless motor also delivers maximum torque and consistent cutting performance, ensuring an even, precise lawn finish every time.
With a wide 53.4 cm (21″) steel cutting deck, the LM002GT204 covers large areas efficiently, reducing the number of passes needed to mow your lawn. The deck is built for durability and long-term performance, capable of withstanding regular use without bending or warping. The cutting height is fully adjustable across ten positions, ranging from 20 mm to 100 mm, allowing for complete control over lawn length and aesthetic preference. This feature is especially useful for different grass types and seasonal changes, whether you want a neatly trimmed summer lawn or a longer, lush look during spring and autumn.
The mower also features a self-propelled drive system with large rear wheels for improved traction, making it easy to maneuver across slopes, uneven terrain, or tricky garden layouts. This reduces the physical effort needed, ensuring that even large lawns can be mowed with minimal fatigue. The front wheels are designed for smooth gliding and accurate navigation around obstacles like flower beds, trees, and garden paths.
Multi-functional mowing options are another standout feature. The LM002GT204 allows you to choose between grass collection, mulching, or side discharge depending on your needs. A large 70 L grass collector reduces the need for frequent emptying, letting you mow for longer periods without interruption. Mulching returns finely chopped grass clippings to the lawn, acting as a natural fertilizer, while side discharge is ideal for very tall grass or rapid clearing.
Safety and convenience are also prioritized. The LM002GT204 includes electronic soft start and brake functions for smooth engagement and immediate stopping when necessary. The foldable handle allows for compact storage in sheds or garages, while the battery protection system safeguards against overcharging, over-discharging, and overheating, prolonging battery life and ensuring consistent performance.
This mower is designed to be environmentally friendly, producing zero emissions and minimal noise, making it ideal for use in residential neighborhoods, parks, and schools. Its cordless operation eliminates the need for petrol, fuel storage, or extension cords, giving users freedom of movement across their entire property.
The Makita LM002GT204 is perfect for homeowners who want a professional-grade mower without the complexity and maintenance of a petrol engine, and for landscaping professionals who need reliability and power in a battery-operated system. Its combination of wide cutting deck, long battery life, self-propulsion, and adjustable cutting height makes it suitable for a wide variety of applications, from small gardens to extensive lawns.
