ABSTRACT:
A garden trimmer has a housing containing a motor whose output is rotatable about a motor axis and is connected to a cutter line which lies in a plane perpendicular to this axis when the output is rotated. A handle shaft extends at an acute angle to the motor axis from the housing and has an outer end provided with a Y-shaped handle having a central Y-leg fixed concentrically on the outer shaft end and a pair of Y-arms, with the legs and arms generally angularly equispaced at about 120.degree.. The handle is formed on the leg adjacent the intersection of the arms and legs with a throughgoing window in which is exposed the actuation button of an on-off switch for the motor. Thus either Y-arm of the handle can be grasped by either hand of the user, with the respective pointing or index finger engaged through the window to operate the switch, so that the tool can comfortably be used with the cutter-line plane either vertical or horizontal.
