Tanaka Gas Powered Grass Trimmer Description
It’s back! Tanaka’s best selling grass trimmer now features a 21cc low emission PureFire engine and a heavy-duty anti-vibration system to help reduce fatigue. Weighing just 9.7 lbs., this commercial grade trimmer / brush cutter features excellent power-to-weight, a 60-inch solid steel drive shaft, 4-inch semi-automatic cutting head, and is backed by a seven year consumer use warranty. Optional attachments are available (TPH-210, TPS-210, TMC-200).
So how does it perform? Unbelievable! Power, power, power. The heavy brush on the lower part of our lot that I had been avoiding because of the sickly Craftsman met it’s match and went down without a fight. The engine is very smooth with little vibration. It seems to be comfortable for a while (20 minutes or so) but I’m thinking about a sling. The straight shaft puts the cutter head right where you need it. It started right up with a a few pumps of the primer bulb and then restarted on an easy half pull of the starter rope. There was a little assembly required (mounting the cutter and the handle) but Tanaka even included the tools to put it together.Overall I couldn’t be more pleased and would highly recommend this unit. Plus I found out after I bought it that Tanaka has a $40 rebate through the end of June so it was really a steal!
