    Shelbourne Reynolds to introduce new 6.5m hedge trimmer

    The Shelbourne Reynolds 7000 series is being extended at Lamma, with the launch of the 7065T telescopic with a true 6.5m reach.

    It features a compact design, making it suitable for narrow lane work, and the company states it is the first opportunity to invest in a heavy-duty trimmer with this reach.

    “Trimmer reach can be misleading and frequently begs the question – does your trimmer really measure up? All of our 6000, 7000 and 8000 series trimmers feature fixed mounted heads and so the advertised reach is actually the true reach available to the operator,” says Neil Smith

    “Machines with clamp mount heads typically advertise reach with the head fully offset which is not a practical operating position and so you immediately lose 0.5m reach when the head is set centrally. The 7065T has a true 6.5m reach when fully extended, and 5.4m reach retracted.”

    The new model comes with the proven standard specifications as the rest of the 7000 range, with a 70hp hydraulic system (with the option of an 85hp model), which can run at high pressures with a low flow to eliminate pressure drops.
