Hi there. I have Makita cordless tools and wanted to get the 36v trimmer power head that accepts attachments . They make a few attachments and the manual says the shaft is only approved for the listed attachments, all by Makita. I know other brands accept universal attachments and many attachments are designed to fit any brand.
Can I fit universal attachments on it?
A more general question: is there a downside to these modular systems over using a dedicated trimmer?
