The Greenworks G24PH51 hedge trimmer provides the gardener with an extended reach which is ideal for trimming at height or in awkward locations such as behind obstacles. The head can be fixed in one of 7 positions, enabling comfortable operation from multiple angles of approach and providing an easy way to trim the tops of high hedges. Cushion overmoulded grips help keep the tool comfortable in the hand over extended periods, while the laser cut dual reciprocating blades ensure effective performance and clean cuts.As part of the Greenworks commitment to both the environment and technological innovation in garden power tools, the G24PH51 runs on rechargable 24v lithium ion batteries (not included) - enabling high performance and cordless freedom without the noise and harmful emissions associated with petrol alternatives, while being supremely easy to use. There is no need to worry about buying, mixing or storing fuel, and no worry of severing a power lead while you are trimming. The G24PH51 is a clean, convenient and safe garden maintenance tool which is compatible with the battery systems of other tools in the Greenworks 24v range, and is alternatively available with a charger and 2ah battery if required.
