HEDGE TRIMMERS

METABO IS SIMPLY A CUT ABOVE THE REST.

Once again Metabo are setting new standards in hedge trimming. In order to meet the varying demands of the hedge trimmer mar- ket we have divided our new models into three classes – a top, middle and standard class. The top class boasts a world first with its toolless "Quick" blade change system. The middle class incor- porates the patented Metabo handle which increases the cutting reach by up to 50% compared to conventional designs (as does the

top class). Where as the standard class provides a compact light weight solution, while still retaining some the features and bene- fits of the upper classes. In essence Metabo hedge trimmers stand out in all three classes by virtue of their performance, ergonomics and innovation. Robust motors, laser cut diamond-ground blades and excellent features are just some of the reasons why they are the first choice for many professionals the world over.
