Greenworks 40V 13in Cordless String Trimmer — Tool Only, 2-in-1 Pivoting Head & Telescoping Shaft

The Greenworks 40V 13" Cordless String Trimmer is a lightweight, battery-powered 2-in-1 tool that trims and converts to an edger with a pivoting head for easy lawn edge control — tool only (battery sold separately).

Powered by the Greenworks 40V lithium-ion platform, this 13-inch trimmer delivers fade-free cordless performance and works across the brand's expanding ecosystem of outdoor equipment. Compact and nearly maintenance-free, it eliminates gas, oil, and pull-start hassles. The unit includes a telescoping aluminum shaft and a 90° rotating head, letting you switch quickly between trimming and edging while keeping user comfort and portability in mind.

How does this trimmer switch between trimming and edging?

Converting from string trimmer to edger takes only a push of a button and rotating the head into position. The 90° pivoting head offers consistent cutting angles so you can follow sidewalks, driveways, and lawn borders precisely without changing tools.

• One-button conversion from trimmer mode to edger mode
• 90° rotatable head for multiple cutting angles
• .065" single-line auto-feed for consistent line length

What power and runtime can I expect using the Greenworks 40V platform?

This unit runs on Greenworks 40V lithium-ion batteries (sold separately) that deliver steady power without the fade common to older battery chemistries. Available battery sizes range from compact 2Ah cells to higher-capacity 6Ah packs, letting you match runtime to lawn size — up to about a half-acre with larger batteries.

• Compatible with 40V Greenworks batteries across the platform
• Battery options: 2Ah, 2.5Ah, 3Ah, 4Ah, 5Ah, 6Ah for flexible runtimes
• Certain batteries include USB ports for charging devices in the yard

How comfortable and easy is it to operate for extended use?

The trimmer is engineered to be lightweight and ergonomically balanced, reducing fatigue during longer trimming sessions. A telescoping aluminum shaft adjusts to user height and posture, while the push-button start and auto-feed line simplify operation and reduce interruptions.

• Adjustable telescoping shaft for personalized fit
• Ultra-light design and ergonomic handle for less strain
• Push-button start and auto-feed line for hassle-free use

What kind of upkeep does this cordless trimmer require?

Maintenance is minimal because the trimmer runs on lithium-ion power — no gas mixing, no oil changes, and no spark plug servicing. Routine tasks are limited to replacing trimmer line and keeping the head clean after heavy use.

• Virtually maintenance-free: no fuel, oil, or emissions
• Replaceable .065" trimmer line and occasional debris clearing
• Durable aluminum shaft resists rust and wear

Who is this for: The Greenworks 40V 13" Cordless String Trimmer is ideal for homeowners with small-to-medium yards who want a quiet, easy-to-use alternative to gas trimmers. It suits users who already own or plan to build around the Greenworks 40V battery platform, anyone seeking low-maintenance yard tools, and people who value adjustable ergonomics and quick conversion to an edger for tidy lawn borders.
