Milwaukee Tool unveiled two new trimmers: the M18 Fuel Pole Articulating Hedge Trimmer and the M18 Fuel Extended Pole Articulating Hedge Trimmer.
Engineered with the advanced PowerState Brushless Motor, these hedge trimmers deliver the power needed to cut through 1-inch branches without slowing down. The 24-inch double-sided blades with a 1-inch blade gap provide exceptional cutting capacity, allowing more material to be cut with each pass and take on thick branches and dense overgrowth.
To ensure consistent performance in demanding conditions, RedLink Plus Intelligence enables total system communication between the tool and battery. This advanced technology prevents overheating and overloading, ensuring optimal power output and contributing to greater productivity and longer tool life.
The M18 Fuel Pole Articulating Hedge Trimmers deliver faster cutting performance, enhancing application speed for greater productivity. Operating at 3,500 strokes per minute, the precision-engineered blades deliver consistent cutting performance for tough tasks. The 270-degree articulating cutting head offers 12 operating positions, providing optimal angles for hard-to-reach areas—whether extending to the tops of hedges or reaching lower for ground clearing.
These hedge trimmers feature a five-position rotating handle, padded grip and bail handle, providing users with better ergonomics in extended reach trimming applications allowing them to comfortably maneuver the tool in multiple orientations without compromising comfort or control. The built-in tip guard helps to prevent blade damage and protects surrounding surfaces, ensuring professional-grade results. With an overall length of 87 inches for the pole articulating unit and 108 inches for the extended pole version, these hedge trimmers offer the versatility to handle both ground-level trimming and elevated hedges without the need for ladders.
Both hedge trimmers are fully compatible with Milwaukee’s M18 System, which now includes over 275-plus solutions.
Additional specifications include a 13-position articulating cutting head with 270 degrees of rotation, a weight of only 2 pounds (tool only) and 14.4 pounds (with the battery). The warranty is three years.
