Beyond by BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX String Trimmer/Edger, 12-Inch (LST522E1AEV) | Cordless Power & Easy Edge Conversion

Overview

Meet the Beyond by BLACK+DECKER 20V MAX String Trimmer/Edger, a compact cordless solution designed to elevate your lawn care. With a 12-inch cutting path and a robust POWERDRIVE transmission, this tool delivers reliable torque to handle overgrowth while staying nimble enough for tight spaces. The kit includes a Lithium Ion battery and a charger, so you’re ready to work right out of the box, with power that lasts through multiple passes on a single charge.

Two-speed control gives you the flexibility to prioritize raw power on stubborn patches or extend run time for routine trimming. The Automatic Feed Spool (AFS) feeds line as needed, reducing pauses and bumps so you can maintain a steady rhythm as you work along borders, beds, and along the edge of your lawn.

• Two-speed control to balance speed, torque, and runtime according to the job.
• Automatic Feed Spool maintains a consistent line length, helping you cover more ground per pass.
