Know before you buy
Yes, the 60V battery is fully compatible with the entire Toro Flex-Force power tool lineup, allowing you to swap power sources between your mower, blower, and other equipment.
The trimmer features an adjustable cutting width that can be set to either 14 or 16 inches, allowing you to choose between maximum runtime or a wider clearing path depending on the density of the weeds.
This model uses a 0.095-inch diameter line. It is equipped with a spool-free Command Feed system, which simplifies the reloading process compared to traditional manual-wind spools.
You can expect up to 60 minutes of runtime on a single charge. Actual performance will vary based on the thickness of the vegetation and the speed setting you select.
RunSmart technology monitors the motor's performance in real-time, automatically adjusting the RPMs and torque to match the load. This ensures you have enough power for thick brush while conserving battery life during lighter trimming tasks.
The unit weighs 12 pounds. While it is built with a durable cast aluminum head, the straight-shaft design is balanced to help reduce fatigue during longer trimming sessions.
