LE260 & LE261
Details
Manicuring lawns is quick and easy with Shindaiwa high-torque edgers. 2-ring-piston engines feature forced-air cooling and vibration dampening. Superior balance reduces operator fatigue and improves performance. The Cyclone™ Edger Blade has a sharp beveled edge for easier cutting, greater durability, and less resistance – and the 7.75” blade bolts on in just seconds.
