WORX Introduces 40V Nitro Driveshare Attachment-Capable Grass Trimmer With Brushless Motor and New Power Share Pro High-Capacity Battery
The new WORX® Nitro 40V Power Share Pro 15 in. Driveshare Attachment-Capable Grass Trimmer features a split-shaft design to fit four universal attachments (sold separately), including a 17 in. hedge trimmer, 10 in. brush cutter, 10 in. pole saw and lawn edger with 8 in. blade. The Driveshare compatible system features a powerful, high-performance, brushless motor and two WORX 20V Power Share Pro 4.0Ah batteries to deliver 40V of power.
The 40V Power Share Pro, 15 in. Driveshare Grass Trimmer is part of the new WORX Nitro line of performance-driven outdoor power equipment, engineered with brushless motors for maintenance-free operation with high-performance batteries to run longer and work harder.
The WORX Power Share Pro batteries provide improved power protection and run time through an intelligent battery management system with cell-cooling technology. Each battery’s cells are wrapped in thermoplastic material to dissipate heat and maximize power and performance.
The Driveshare grass trimmer marks the first time WORX has offered an attachment-capable grass trimmer. In fact, the WORX Nitro Driveshare trimmer and its optional attachments are compatible with other major brands of attachment-capable trimmers, and vice versa. And, although WORX Nitro Power Share Pro batteries are engineered to work with WORX Nitro lawn and garden and DIY tools, they also are compatible with more than 35 other lawn and garden and DIY tools in the WORX Power Share program.
“The trimmer’s system approach eliminates the need to purchase five separate tools,” said Pete Denley, WORX Senior Product Manager. “This is a multi-functional product, without the compromises. The attachments offer incredible performance allowing users to attack pretty much anything on their property.”
The grass trimmer has a variable-speed trigger with eco mode to maximize performance and control. The trimmer uses a bump-feed, line advance system. Professional grade .095 in. line is used in the dual-exit trimmer.
The two WORX Nitro 20V 4.0Ah Power Share Pro batteries each have electronic charge level indicators to monitor charge levels. The dual-port charger brings both batteries to a full charge in two hours.
The optional WORX Nitro 17 in. Hedge Trimmer attachment (WA0220) features dual-action cutting blades. The trimmer’s 10-position cutting head pivots in multiple angles to maximize performance when trimming and shaping a variety of species, including boxwood, yews, shrubs and bushes. The smooth-cutting, dual-action blades minimize vibration and help reduce operator fatigue, especially during extended use periods. The 17 in. hedge trimmer blades provide enough clearance to cut through stems or branches to nearly one inch in diameter. It has an overall reach of up to 10 ft.
The WORX Nitro 10 in. Brush Cutter Attachment (WA0221) features a 10 in. hi-speed, steel blade to cut through thick brush. The 3.9 lb. shaft and blade attachment is easy to connect. Once connected, the brush cutter blade spins at 6700 rpm (no-load) to pick up where conventional grass trimmers leave off by cutting through dense brush in the landscape. The trimmer’s long shaft maximizes reach for added control and efficiency.
Adding the WORX Nitro 10 in. Pole Saw Attachment (WA0222) provides added reach and the ability to trim tree branches and those down from storms. It’s also handy for thinning out trees, and bushes. The 4.06 lb. 10 in. pole saw has an extended reach of 12.5 ft. The pole saw features automatic chain lubrication for maximum efficiency and long life for both bar and chain. The chain’s speed is 55.8 ft. per second with a 3/8 in. pitch.
The optional WORX Nitro Lawn Edger Attachment (WA0223) is ideal for delivering clean, straight edges for a professional, manicured look along sidewalks, driveways and patios. The edger incorporates an 8 in. blade with a maximum cutting depth of up to 2.5 in. A rear 4.25 in. diameter adjustable guide wheel helps enable straight edges. The blade also can be used for trenching and can be sharpened for extended life.
