Toro introduces lithium-ion 24-volt Max yard tools
Putting the finishing touches on yard work is easy and eco-friendly with Toro’s new cordless 24-volt string trimmers, hedge trimmers and sweepers. Thanks to lithium-ion battery technology, these yard tools offer plenty of power to get the job done quickly.
Toro’s lithium-ion battery-powered tools remove the hassles of gas and oil, yet still provide the performance needed. Their super-charged, interchangeable batteries provide up to twice the power per weight as compared to a traditional nickel-cadmium battery. They also allow for longer run time with low self-discharge.
The Toro 24-volt* Max string trimmer is capable of taking on any trimming task. This trimmer features an auto-feed trim line system that automatically adjusts the line to the ideal cutting length. That means no more line hassles to slow down operators. A power-saver adjustable-cut feature changes the cutting line length from 12 inches to 10 inches for balancing run time.
This trimmer’s 14-inch shaft with adjustable assist handle helps reduce operator fatigue and promote precise trimming and edging. With Toro’s one-step, walk-behind edging option, just push a button and rotate the head to start edging. A wheel guides the trimmer along the ground to make the task easier.
Weighing in at 8 pounds, this new string trimmer (model 51487) comes with a rapid charger and on-board charge meter to display the battery status and has a suggested retail price of $169.99.
The Toro cordless 24-volt* Max hedge trimmer features a work grip handle that rotates 90 degrees for comfort during vertical cutting. The trimmer’s 24-inch-long hardened polished steel cutting bar gives operators extended reach and superior durability, while the dual-action cutting system reduces vibration and fatigue. Weighing in at 7 pounds, this trimmer can take on branches up to 5/8-inch in diameter. Model number 51496 has a suggested retail price of $159.99.
The 24-volt* Max sweeper is ideal for tidying up sidewalks, garages or any other hard surface. Low- or high-speed settings may be selected to match the sweeping power to the job. This lightweight sweeper packs a lot of power into only 5 pounds, making it easy to use and convenient for any cleanup task. Model number 51702 has a suggested retail price of $139.
*Battery manufacturer rating = 24V maximum & 22.2V nominal. Actual voltage varies with load.
