Die Handhabung und Montage der Grasschere waren sehr gut. Leider sind die Räder meiner Meinung nach zu klein. In unebenen Gelände ist das Schieben sehr schwergängig. Vielleicht suche ich mir im Baumarkt größere und probiere diese aus

etwas fummelig bei der Montage ist die Griffverlängerung leicht zu verwenden. Mittels einer Flügelmutter wird die Grasschere befestigt.Der Halter wird dazu aufgeklappt. Eine Bedientaste im Griff startet das Gerät. Leichte Handhabung im Betrieb. Material ist ein stabiles Alugestänge und fester ,stabiler Kunststoff wie auch die Geräteschale der Schere. Es erleichtert die Arbeit ungemein.Die wie auch von anderen Nutzern bemängelten Räder könnten etwas größer sein,aber stören nicht und man gewöhnt sich daran. Ich kann den Griff nur empfehlen.

This (Makita 198486-1 Long Handle Attachment) is a good addition to the Makita grass shear tool. I am using it on the Makita XMU05Z shear and it fits perfectly, even though it is designed for the XMU04Z shear. I use it for trimming grass at the edge of a first step facing made of white plastic "wood". It is not perfect for this application, but it does work OK. I needed something other than a string trimmer, which puts gouges in the plastic "wood" step facing. I bought the smallest Makita battery - 2.0Ah - to go with the shear, as I read that the long handle’s wheels are small and the battery often bumps against the ground when using. I bought this Makita extended handle to allow use of the shear while standing up, instead of crouching. This Makita extended handle works well on the XMU05Z shear, even though the handle specs only state that it is compatible with the XMU04Z. Due to the small wheel size, the small battery still bumps on the ground most of the time unless the entire tool and handle are picked up in the air while using. Even with this issue, I am happy with the shear and this handle. The blades are very sharp and the motor is sufficiently powerful to clip all grass/weeds that it encounters on my lawn. Battery life using the shear has been good so far. This long handle attachment is pricey, as are most Makita items. But it saves a lot of bending and crouching while using the shear.

This handle worked well. I did not use the wheels at all; rather, I used two hands to hold the trimmer at the height I wanted. It works great and prevents damage to the fence from a string weed whacker. This results in a 6-inch wide strip that I can mow up to. EASY PEASY! I can trim both sides of my 160 foot long fence 2-3 times before I need to recharge the battery.
