The split-shaft tool from Makita also features its Active Feedback sensing Technology (AFT), which shuts off the motor should the attached blades or head hit a hard object that causes it to jam or stop rotating. This reduces the likelihood of damaging the tool and provides peace of mind for landscapers working with stoney earth or hedge cutting near wire fencing.
