Product Overview

Features & Benefits
- High-Torque Brushless Motor: The motor is entirely brushless, which significantly reduces internal friction and heat. This translates to a longer service life for the tool and extended runtime per battery charge compared to brushed alternatives.
- Intelligent Speed Control: You maintain full command over performance with variable speed settings. Lower the speed to maximise battery life during light trimming, or ramp it up to full power for clearing dense, stubborn vegetation.
- Constant Electronics: The tool automatically adjusts its power output under load. This ensures the cutting speed remains consistent even when you move from thin grass into thick patches of weeds, preventing the motor from stalling.
- Anti-Tangle Technology: A standout feature for professional use, this system detects when long grass or weeds wrap around the shaft. It automatically reverses the rotation to free the jam, saving you from manually clearing the cutting head.
- EasyWind Spool System: Reloading the line is exceptionally fast and requires no disassembly. You can wind a new line onto the spool without opening the head, drastically reducing downtime in the field.
- Pro-Tap Feed Mechanism: The reliable Pro-Tap system feeds the cutting line with a simple bump on the ground during operation, ensuring you always have the full 33 cm cutting diameter available.
- Rugged Construction: The motor housing is crafted from aluminium rather than plastic, offering superior protection against drops, knocks, and the rigours of daily transport in a work van.
- Plant Protection Bar: An integrated metal guard creates a physical barrier, allowing you to trim right up to flower beds and tree trunks without damaging valuable plants or the cutting line.
- Low Noise Profile: Operates at significantly lower noise levels than petrol equivalents (Sound Pressure Level approx. 77 dB), making it ideal for use in noise-sensitive environments like residential estates, schools, or hospitals.

FAQs
A strimmer or a brushcutter can prove extremely versatile; while they’re ideal for tidying up around the edges of lawns, they can also be used for intensive operations like clearing dense shrub.
When choosing a Strimmer or Brushcutter, there are a number of things to think about. For comfort when using the tool, selecting the right length of shaft for your height is important, as is considering the overall weight of the tool. You may also want to decide whether you want a battery-powered or fuel-driven machine; battery-powered Strimmers don’t need to be refuelled, but can be more powerful than electric models. For home users with relatively small gardens, a corded tool, which you plug into mains power, offers an additional alternative.
Brushed motors use carbon brushes to transfer power from the fixed part of the motor to the rotor. This creates a reliable and relatively inexpensive motor, but brushed motors d require regular maintenance, in order to either clean the brushes or replace them as they wear out. A brushless motor, by contrast, uses a magnet mounted on the rotor to generate the power and electrical switching to perform the function carried out by the brushes. The additional complexity of the motor’s working means that brushless motors are usually more expensive than brushed.
However, eliminating the brushes also eliminates internal friction and maintenance, meaning that brushless motors offer both increased power and a longer working life. Brushless motors also generate less heat and noise and so, on balance, are considered superior to brushed motors.
