Our DH230/231 and HT230/231 models have been designed to deliver great reliability and performance. The DH230 and DH231 are available with either a 24 or 30-inch double-sided cutting blade. Both DH and HT models are equipped with dual-action cutting blades, and a centrifugal clutch with redesigned cluth shoes that resist shock loads. The HT230 and HT231 are available with either a 30 or 40-inch single-sided cutting blade and an optional deflector shield allowing you to sweep away trimmings from the hedge.
