Milwaukee DeWalt STIHL Makita

Milwaukee

Milwaukee’s new line of outdoor power equipment runs on a REDLITHIUM 9.0 battery pack. With options to use with the FUEL Hedge Trimmer, String Trimmer, or Blower, this high-demand battery provides enough power and stamina to get any outdoor activity done. REDLITHIUM is the most sustainable and capable 18V battery on the market. It has 5x more run time, 35% more power and is 60% cooler than standard lithium. And because of it’s versatility, it can power over 100 Milwaukee cordless tools.

The M18 FUEL Hedge Trimmer is designed to meet the maintenance need of any professional landscaping service. It features all metal gear to protect it against any jobsite abuse. It’s tip guard also helps prevent damage to the blade and any property. The extended distance from the handle to the trigger not only increases control of the equipment, but it also cuts up to 30% faster – and has RedLink Plus Intelligence – which allows for better communication between the battery and the trimmer so you will see better performance, productivity, and protection from your equipment.

The M18 FUEL String Trimmer features improved durability and reliability, as well as maximum power to clear the thickest brush. It goes from zero to full throttle in under one second, and the REDLITHIUM battery pack enables trimming up to 1 hour. With the motor located at the back of the trimmer, it allows for more power, balance, and maneuverability.

The M18 FUEL Blower reaches up to 5 feet for maximum clearance, and has an axial fan that allows for longer runtime and provides more power. The variable speed trigger also increases control over the airflow and the tool itself. The cruise control feature allows the blower to be set to a desired output so that the operator can relax their hand while still getting all of their work done.

DeWalt

DeWalt has lithium-ion batteries that range from 160 to 300 watts and 20V to 60V; ready to be put to use in chainsaws, trimmers and blowers. Providing durability and runtime that a landscaper seeks or the trust it takes to complete loftier applications for construction professionals, 20V, 40V or 60V power equipment will give you just that. Each battery is also equipped with a 3-LED fuel gauge that allows for immediate feedback on the state of your charge.

With the performance of gas but convenience of a battery, DeWalt’s chainsaws run for hours and require little maintenance. They have a brushless motor and long chain life, and a tool-free tightening system for quick and easy adjustments. They also feature LubriLink and LibriWell auto-oiling for smooth cuts.

DeWalt’s string trimmers are designed with the user in mind. Their patented gear drive design provides amplified torque, with a variable speed trigger for precise power control, hi/lo speed control for added power, and extended run time. The bump feed head allows for 15” of swath so any job can be accomplished with minimum strain.

DeWalt’s blowers feature a high-efficiency brushless motor designed to maximize runtime and motor life, as well as a variable speed trigger and speed lock for full power control. These blowers have an air volume up to 400 cubic feet and blow at a wind speed of 120 mph.

With over three hours of trimming per charge, a brushless motor that delivers up to 3,700 strokes per minute, and 15% more shaft to reach farther distances and allow you to get more work done, DeWalt’s Pole Hedge Trimmer will allow you to accomplish any task quickly and efficiently.

The hedge trimmer features high impact housing for shock resistance and durability, and a removable gear case cover for easy blade exchange. The high-output motor and laser-cut hooked tooth blades are designed for clean, fast cuts that are capable of cutting branches up to ¾” thick.

Stihl

Stihl’s new Lightning Battery System presents the perfect balance of performance, features, and value. It is available in three tiers: occasional use (AI), frequent (AK), and extensive (AP). The AI Series is perfect and ready-to-go for jobs around the house that can be completed in a single charge. The AK Series is also a complete value-pack with product, battery, and charger; served for immediate usage. Lastly, the AP Series is the most powerful with grade-A product performances for larger-scale outdoor activities. The 36-volt battery powered technology, LED charge indicator lights, specialized voltage monitors, and temperature sensors help ensure optimal operation and a long service life. The chargers also feature an onboard cooling fan along with the LED display to indicate the charge level.
