Toro 60V Max 24-Inch Brushless Cordless Hedge Trimmer Kit with 2.0Ah Battery

Product Description

The Toro 60V Max 24-Inch Brushless Cordless Hedge Trimmer is designed for fast, controlled trimming of hedges, shrubs, bushes, and ornamental landscaping without the noise, fuel, exhaust, or maintenance requirements of a gasoline-powered tool.

Powered by Toro’s 60V Max Flex-Force Power System, model 51841 includes a compact 2.0Ah, 108Wh lithium-ion battery and a compatible charger. The battery provides up to approximately 45 minutes of runtime, depending on cutting load, hedge density, temperature, battery condition, and operating technique.

Its high-performance brushless motor delivers efficient power with reduced internal wear compared with a conventional brushed motor. The electronic motor system provides up to 3,200 cutting strokes per minute, allowing the trimmer to work quickly through routine hedge maintenance and more demanding overgrowth.

The tool features a 24-inch hardened-steel cutting bar with a maximum cutting capacity of 3/4 inch. Its dual-action, crisscrossing blade design works in a scissor-like motion to hold branches between the blades and produce cleaner, more efficient cuts with less vibration.

A push-button rotating rear handle allows the operator to reposition the grip when changing between horizontal and vertical trimming. This makes it easier to shape the tops, sides, and edges of hedges while maintaining a more natural wrist and arm position.

Toro also uses a balanced tool layout and comfort-grip handle to improve maneuverability and reduce operator fatigue during extended trimming sessions.

The included battery is part of Toro’s interchangeable 60V Max Flex-Force platform, allowing it to be used with compatible Toro lawn mowers, blowers, trimmers, chainsaws, snow blowers, and other outdoor tools within the system.

Key Features

60V Max Cordless Performance

Provides strong battery-powered cutting without extension cords, gasoline, mixing fuel, engine oil, or exhaust emissions at the tool.

Brushless Motor

The high-efficiency brushless motor provides dependable power, longer motor life, and reduced maintenance compared with a traditional brushed design.

24-Inch Hardened-Steel Blades

The long cutting bar covers more hedge surface with each pass, making it suitable for medium and large shrubs.

3/4-Inch Cutting Capacity

Cuts branches and hedge growth measuring up to approximately 0.75 inch thick.

Dual-Action Cutting System

Two blades move in opposite directions to produce cleaner cuts while reducing vibration transferred to the operator.

Crisscross Blade Design

The exclusive blade layout helps draw branches into the cutting teeth and hold them in place during trimming.

3,200 Strokes per Minute

The fast blade speed supports efficient trimming across dense shrubs and routine landscape growth.

Rotating Rear Handle

The handle rotates at the push of a button to provide a more comfortable grip during horizontal and vertical cutting.

Balanced Tool Design

Optimized weight distribution helps the trimmer feel more controlled while shaping tall, wide, or long hedges.

Comfort-Grip Handle

The padded gripping surface improves handling and helps reduce vibration during extended operation.

Electric Starting

The trimmer starts through its electric controls without pull cords, priming, or repeated starting attempts.

Flex-Force Battery Compatibility

The included battery can power other compatible Toro 60V Max Flex-Force tools.

Technical Specifications

Toro rates the battery at 60V maximum and 54V during typical use. Actual voltage, runtime, and cutting performance vary according to load and operating conditions. Published charging time also varies slightly by retailer and charger specification, with approximately 100–103 minutes commonly listed.

Cutting Performance

The 24-inch blade assembly is long enough to reach across medium and large hedges while remaining manageable for detailed shaping.

Its opposing dual-action blades reduce vibration compared with a single-action system. The crisscrossing blade geometry helps guide branches into the cutting area instead of pushing them away from the teeth.

The 3/4-inch cutting capacity is suitable for:

• Routine hedge maintenance
• Shrub shaping
• Seasonal landscape cleanup
• Trimming new and moderate woody growth
• Cutting the tops and sides of privacy hedges
• Maintaining ornamental bushes and foundation plants

The tool is not intended to replace a chainsaw, pruning saw, or lopper when working with branches larger than its rated cutting capacity.

Rotating-Handle System

The rotating rear handle allows the operator to change hand orientation when switching between different trimming positions.

For example:

• Use the standard position when cutting the top of a hedge.
• Rotate the handle when trimming vertical sides.
• Adjust the grip to maintain better wrist alignment when shaping corners.
• Reposition the handle to improve control when working from different directions.

The tool should be switched off and the blades allowed to stop fully before changing grip or repositioning the handle.

Battery and Charging

The included Toro L108 battery delivers:

• 60V maximum rated voltage
• 54V typical operating voltage
• 2.0Ah capacity
• 108Wh energy capacity
• Up to approximately 45 minutes of runtime
• Compatibility with Toro Flex-Force equipment

Runtime depends on branch thickness, hedge density, blade condition, operating speed, temperature, and user technique.
