The adjustable shaft length allows for optimal positioning, ensuring that users can reach even hard-to-access areas.

Powering these models is a robust 26cc 2-cycle engine, which is designed to deliver high torque and efficiency.

Another key characteristic is the use of a dual-line cutting head that accepts either .065-inch or .080-inch trimmer line. This flexibility gives users the choice of line thickness based on the density of the foliage being trimmed. The automatic feed spool eliminates the need for manual line adjustments, allowing for uninterrupted operation.

In addition to their capabilities as trimmers, these models can be fitted with optional attachments such as brush cutters, edgers, and blowers, enhancing their versatility.
