What Is a GTI 15T Weed Eater?

Trimming Weeds

• The GTI 15T is a handheld trimming machine designed to trim weeds and grass from places you cannot easily reach with a riding lawn mower or a push-behind mower. The trimmer uses nylon string and spins it rapidly to cut the grass. You hold it with both hands and manually place the head of the trimmer into the weeds to start the cutting process.

Husqvarna

• Your Weed Eater trimmer is manufactured by a company called Husqvarna. Along with manufacturing products under their own name, Husqvarna also owns Gardena, McCulloch, Jonsered, Flymo, Partner, Poulan, Poulan Pro, Diamant Boart and WeedEater. Husqvarna reports worldwide sales of over $140 billion on average each year. This means your product has worldwide support and recognition.

Gas Powered

• According to the owner's manual for the GTI 15T, the weed trimmer uses a 22cc gas-powered engine to run the trimmer instead of using electric power. Although this increases power, it also increases maintenance and the cost of operation due to the gas and oil needs of a gas-powered engine.

Single Line

• The GTI 15T uses a single nylon string as opposed to two nylon strings. This reduces the cutting power of the trimmer, but makes using the trimmer easier. You can purchase re-strung replacement spools and convert your trimmer from a single-line to a dual-line trimmer if you want to.
