The Milwaukee M18 FUEL 16" String Trimmer is a cordless, fixed-shaft trimmer built for professional landscape maintenance. Its POWERSTATE brushless motor produces 1.76 HP, which is more power than a 31cc gas trimmer. The motor sits at the rear of the trimmer for balance and maneuverability, and an air-cooling system helps it keep working under demanding loads.
The trimmer reaches full throttle in under 1 second. It has 3 speed settings and a variable speed trigger. REDLINK PLUS Intelligence lets the tool and battery communicate with each other. The adjustable bail handle can be set for different users and applications. The Easy Load Trimmer Head holds 25' of line and can be loaded in under 30 seconds.
The trimmer is optimized for use with an M18 REDLITHIUM FORGE 12.0 Ah battery and is part of the M18 system, which is compatible with over 275 tools.
