The Milwaukee M18 FHET45-0 FUEL Hedge Trimmer combines a compact 45cm blade with the power to cut branches up to 19mm thick. Its double-sharpened blade delivers clean, controlled cutting and makes the tool suitable for shaping, maintaining and reducing hedges in domestic, commercial and professional landscaping applications.
Milwaukee FUEL technology helps the hedge trimmer sustain its cutting performance under load. Balanced weight distribution and carefully positioned handles support comfortable control, while the cordless M18 design removes the restrictions and cutting hazards associated with a power cable.
This M18 FHET45-0 version is supplied as a bare unit. A battery and charger are not included.
Compact 45cm Blade with Professional Cutting Performance
The 45cm blade gives the operator flexibility when working around smaller hedges, shrubs and detailed sections. Its 19mm cutting capacity allows the trimmer to handle established hedge growth, while a stroke rate of 3,400 strokes per minute supports fast and efficient cutting.
Double-sharpened teeth cut in both directions to produce a clean finish and assist with the removal of thicker material.
