ABSTRACT:
A string trimmer which can be operated with one hand is disclosed. A drive motor is disposed at an upper end of the string trimmer and is connected to a string trimmer head through a flexible drive system disposed in a tubular housing between a motor housing and a trimmer head or spindle housing. A handle is provided which extends forwardly and slightly inclined downwardly from the motor housing and is suitably elongated and positioned so as to allow users of different heights to conveniently hold and operate the trimmer, usually with one hand. A detachable assist handle can be pivotally attached to the handle/motor housing structure to facilitate lifting and guiding the string trimmer.
