  • Power & engines: GR620 ships with a Makita EK6101 2-stroke; GR720 uses the Makita EK7651H 4-stroke for easier starts and lower emissions.
  • Digging capacity: 20" maximum digging depth with standard 20" bar; trench widths available for narrow trenching tasks.
  • Durable digging system: Self-sharpening chains cut tree roots up to 3" and handle rocks up to 4" in many soils.
  • Portability: Lightweight handheld design (starting around 35–40 lbs) for tight access and fast cleanup.
  • What's included: 20" digging bar, two digging chains, spare belt and nose bearing, combo wrench, and owner’s manual.
