Features & Benefits:
3 Stage Speed Control – high, medium & low speed can be changed by simply pushing a button on the easy to use LED display.
Reverse Switch – tangled grass clippings can be removed by slow reverse rotation of the cutting tool (automatically stops after three seconds) by pressing button & pulling trigger
XPT – extreme protection technology, is an advanced series of seals & channels to direct dust & moisture away from key internal components.
Active-feedback technology – when the metal blade (optional) hits a solid object like a tree stump or fence, the sudden decrease in rpm triggers the brake, stopping kickback occurring
U-Handle Design – designed so that the centre line of the handle bars stays aligned with the users centre of gravity
18Vx2 Brushless Motor – powered by two 18V Li-ion batteries providing 36V of power & runtime without leaving the 18V platform
Automatic Torque Drive – will automatically increase the torque of the motor when increased load is detected
