Description:

Featuring a single-sided, 30-inch blade, the HS 87 R hedge trimmer offers high engine torque, resulting in great cutting effectiveness and efficiency. It is ideal for pruning and rejuvenating overgrown shrubs due to its lightweight and well-balanced design. Not only is the HS 87 R easy to maneuver, the “R” indicates that this hedge trimmer comes equipped with a cutting blade designed for thinning, rejuvenation, and pruning of thick shrubs and hedges.

All of these features plus low-vibration technology make extended-use hedge trimming a more comfortable experience with the HS 87 R.
