FAQS

What is the difference between Greenworks G-MAX 40V and Greenworks G-MAX 40V GT?

The only difference is that the GT version has a grass blade.

How long does it take to charge the battery?

It takes about 60 minutes to fully charge the battery. However, you can use it while it’s charging. You’ll get about 45 minutes of run time on a fully charged battery.

Are extra batteries available for purchase?

Yes, extra batteries are available for purchase. Here is the link to the compatible G-Max 40v batteries https://www.amazon.com/GreenWorks-29462-G-MAX-Li-Ion-Battery/dp/B00AW72XFQ/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1507209379&sr=8-3&keywords=G-Max+40v+batteries. If you have trouble with this process, please feel free to contact us at 1-888-909-6757 for assistance.

How long does the 2AH battery last?

The 2.0Ah 40v battery can last around 20-25 minutes depending on the type of weeds you’re using it on.

Does this come with the string, oil and other essentials needed?

It came with the string and battery and charger. Ours arrived,we charged the battery,plugged it in thetrimmer and trimmed our whole yard, front and back with power to spare. We don’t mess with cords,gas,or oil anymore and trimming the yard is now a pleasure instead of a curse. The only thing is,it doesn’t have auto feed for the string. The button for it is on the side of the spool instead of the bottom and you have to manually press it to advance the string. It’s a small price to pay for not having to mess around with cords,gas,oil,hard starting, etc

Has anyone been able to fix the auto feed feature? Mine has never worked since day 1… going on over two years with this thing.

We’re sorry to hear you are having problems with the automatic feed with your unit. So we can assist in addressing this issue, please contact our helpline at 1-888-909-6757.

Is 40 volt more powerfull than 20 v

The simple answer is yes. Mathematically power (the rate of work being done) is volts times current. So the higher the voltage the more work that can be done for the amount of current stored in the battery.

What is the overall length of this unit, as i am tall and dont like bending over?

This string trimmer would be approximately 59″ in length.

Is the pole adjustable on this model?

This string trimmer does not have an adjustable pole.

Can you use sunjoe batteries?

No, this is a GreenWorks G-Max 40v unit and can only be used with GreenWorks G-Max 40v batteries. We are not affiliated with Sun Joe.

Does the charger support 220/240 volt

No it does not. but you can buy any step-down voltage converter 220VAC to 110VAC with the same or more wattage to resolve the issue.

does one battery fit all green works products? looking at 16″ chain saw, and weed trimmer, need to know if they use same battery?

If it is a 40v Gmax battery you must use in a gmax unit. If you buy a gmax weed trimmer that uses the gmax battery, the chain saw must also be a gmax saw. You can’t use a regular battery in a gmax unit. I bought the gmax lawn mower, weed trimmer and hand held blower. They all are gmax so I have extra batteries and a charger enabling me to have all the battery power i need. I am also very happy with all the gmax units I purchased. It should tell you the batteries needed in the description of unit you are looking to purchase. make sure they all use the same battery and you will have no problem.

what are the spool cap dimensions??

Don’t waste your money, you won’t be happy with it. It is awkward, heavy, no balance to get the head level, line does not feed half the time. JUNK not to mention the battery has a full charge but the motor cuts out every 10 seconds. Greenworks support is non existent. buyer beware

can a green works 40v lithium max 2.5ah battery model baf722 be used with the 21332 string trimmer?

This trimmer sucks. Waste of money

Will this one work with the greenworks 40v 150 mph variable speed cordless leaf blower, 2.0ah, 24252 2ah battery

Yes, that battery 24252 is a GMax 40V 2Ah battery and will fit this 13-inch 40V cordless string trimmer.

WARNING
TO AVOID ELECTRIC SHOCKS:

1. Use only identical replacement parts when servicing a tool with double insulation. Servicing should be performed by a qualified technician.
2. Do not use in wet or damp areas or expose to rain.

WARNING
THIS DETHATCHER IS FOR OUTDOOR USE ONLY. DO NOT EXPOSE TO RAIN OR USE IN DAMP LOCATIONS.

GUIDELINES FOR USING EXTENSION CORDS
USE THE PROPER EXTENSION CORD. Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure to use one of heavy enough gauge to carry the current your product will draw. An undersized cord will cause overheating. The table below shows the cor-rect size to use depending on cord length and nameplate ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gauge.The smaller the gauge number, the heavier the cord.

MINIMUM GAUGE FOR EXTENSION CORDS (AWG)
(WHEN USING 120V ONLY)

Make sure your extension cord is properly wired and in good electrical condition. Always replace a damaged extension cord or have it repaired by a qualified technician before use. Keep extension cords away from sharp objects, excessive heat and damp or wet areas. Use a separate electrical circuit for tools. This circuit should not be less than #12 wire and should be protected with a 15 A time delayed fuse. Before connecting the motor to the power line, make sure the switch is in the OFF position and the electric current is rated the same as the current stamped on the motor nameplate. Running at a lower voltage will damage the motor.

WARNING
Although this tool is double insulated, the extension cord and outlet must still be grounded while in use to protect the operator from electric shocks.
