is this battery compatible with my Makita radio model XRM02?

Hello Paul, To answer your question if your radio uses the battery with the star on bottom, then the answer is yes, the picture indicates it is a fast charger 30 to 40 minutes and the 40 indicates it has a longer run time then a 30 but it the 40 may get warmer as its for a more demanding powerful tool in other words, 120V outlet verses 240v outlet.

Will this 4.0 battery fit Makita drills?

I can't be absolutely sure, but if the voltage on the drill is the same as the battery, it should fit.

Can i use the makita 5.0ah on my cordless grass shear by makita, model xmu05?

You can use that battery on any tool where the model number starts with an X
