AHS242es, X7502801200 specifications

The Shindaiwa AHS242es is a highly regarded hedge trimmer known for its powerful performance and user-friendly design. As a part of the Shindaiwa family of outdoor power equipment, this model is engineered for both professional landscapers and home gardeners seeking to achieve precision in their hedge trimming tasks.

One of the main features of the AHS242es is its robust 24.5cc, 2-stroke engine.

This reduced weight facilitates prolonged use without causing fatigue, making it perfect for long trimming sessions. Additionally, the ergonomic handle design enhances comfort and control during operation.

An attractive feature of the AHS242es is its easy-start system. This technology reduces the effort needed to start the engine, allowing users to get to work quickly without the frustration of persistent pull starts. The anti-vibration system integrated into the design further enhances the user experience, minimizing fatigue and improving comfort when operating the trimmer.

Safety is also a primary consideration in the design of the AHS242es. It comes equipped with a protective blade cover, ensuring safe storage and transport while reducing the risk of accidental injuries. Moreover, the fuel-efficient engine complies with emission regulations, promoting an environmentally friendly approach to landscaping.
