Milwaukee 3046-20 M18 FUEL 16″ String Trimmer – Tool Only

The Milwaukee 3046-20 M18 FUEL™ 16″ String Trimmer is built for landscape professionals who need cordless power that can handle demanding tasks. Powered by a POWERSTATE™ brushless motor, this string trimmer delivers more power than a 31cc gas engine, making it ideal for clearing thick brush and performing routine maintenance without bogging down. The motor’s advanced air-cooling system allows for extended use, maintaining productivity during long workdays. Additionally, this trimmer’s rear-mounted motor and balanced, lightweight design reduce operator fatigue, making it easier to control for extended periods. With Milwaukee’s REDLINK PLUS™ intelligence, the trimmer communicates with the battery to optimize performance and prevent overloading or overheating, ensuring longevity and reliability in professional applications.

The Milwaukee 3046-20 M18 FUEL 16″ trimmer’s variable speed trigger and three-speed settings provide maximum control, enabling users to adjust the power based on the task at hand. This flexibility allows for both light trimming and more demanding jobs like cutting thick brush. The Easy Load Trimmer Head can hold up to 25 feet of trimmer line and loads in under 30 seconds, reducing downtime and enhancing job site efficiency. While this model is sold as a tool-only option, it is optimized for use with Milwaukee’s M18™ REDLITHIUM™ FORGE HD12.0 battery, ensuring excellent runtime and performance.
