    Features

    • This string trimmer comes with the Expand-it Attachment system, which allows you to add different attachments to your trimmer. These attachments include an edger, tiller, pruner, blower and hedge and straight shaft trimmer. It comes with a shoulder harness, which improves overall user comfort. It also has a center, padded handle, which reduces the amount of vibrations you feel. The Ryobi BC30 Brush Cutter comes with ZipStart Plus technology, which makes it easier to start the device. The Straight Shaft helps you get to hard-to-access places, including under benches, decks and porches. You can cut standard grasses, thick grasses, stalks and thick weeds. All the controls and the fuel tank are located on the top of the shaft for easier access.

    Kit

    • Your Ryobi string trimmer kit includes a hanger cap, shoulder harness, 18-inch string trimmer kit and J-Barrier handle. You also receive the two-cycle engine oil, which helps keep your engine running efficiently. For protection, this string trimmer comes with a brush cutter guard and grass deflector. These safety devices reduce the amount of debris that moves upwards. Instead, the grass moves sideways and away from you.
