The 40 Volt Max Brushless Cordless 17" String Trimmer Kit is a powerful, efficient tool designed for professional landscaping and maintenance tasks. Powered by a Makita-built brushless motor, it provides the power equivalent to a 30cc gas string trimmer, making it ideal for trimming grass, edging garden beds, and maintaining lawns. The 17" cutting swath increases productivity, while three-speed settings give you control over power and run-time. With Automatic Torque Drive Technology, the trimmer adjusts speed for extended run time or added power, and the Rapid Load Bump and Feed Trimmer Head makes reloading the line quick and easy. The adjustable loop handle ensures operator comfort, and the reverse function clears entangled grass and weeds with ease. Additionally, this string trimmer offers a zero-emissions, eco-friendly alternative to gas-powered models with lower noise levels.
