New From Greenworks Commercial: 82 V 16-in. String Trimmer
Greenworks Commercial, a provider of battery-operated power equipment, announced a new 82 V 16-in. front-mount string trimmer at the 2022 Equip Expo.
Built to perform, the new model 82ST12 trimmer is the best power-to-weight ratio commercial-grade string trimmer in the industry, allowing operators 45 minutes of runtime on a single charge with the outstanding benefit of being 13% lighter than competitor models. The trimmer provides a 16-in. cutting swath and a comfort overmolded ergonomic front handle and rear throttle as well as lightweight rear housing, improving balance and reducing operator fatigue.
The new 82 V string trimmer utilizes a front mounted, direct drive commercial-grade brushless motor that produces 1.2 kW of maximum power to deliver continuous power through the toughest terrain without bogging down. With an included 8 amp dual port charger that recharges a 4.0 Ah battery in 30 minutes, runtime is unlimited.
Greenworks has the broadest line of commercial-grade lithium-ion outdoor professional equipment in the industry, and the new trimmer showcases Greenworks’ signature cutting-edge technology that delivers the best-in-class user experience for landscape professionals.
