BLOOMINGTON, Minn. – If you’re looking for the power and performance of a gas trimmer, but don’t want the hassle of gas and oil, meet the new 48-volt Max string trimmer from Toro.
Toro’s highest voltage string trimmer is powered by lithium-ion battery technology and built with durable, high-powered features that give it the performance of a gas-powered trimmer without the maintenance.
Toro’s lithium ion battery-powered tools have super-charged, interchangeable batteries that provide up to twice the power per weight when compared to a traditional nickel-cadmium battery. An exclusive storage-mode feature keeps your battery at the perfect level when it’s not in use, allowing for longer run times and helping to extend the life of the battery.
The new Toro 48-volt Max string trimmer easily cuts through grass and weeds with a durable 13-inch dual trim line. This new trimmer also features variable speed control, allowing you to match the power to the trimming job, preserving power for when you really need it. Pair those features with an on-board charge meter that displays the battery status, and you have the tool you need to take on any trimming task.
The aluminum head and extended steel shaft provide long-lasting durability, while an adjustable assist handle keeps the trimmer balanced and easy to operate.
Weighing in at just under nine pounds, the 48-volt Max string trimmer (model 51488) is covered by a three-year full warranty and has a manufacturer suggested retail price of $209.00.
