Milwaukee® Expands Outdoor Power Equipment Lineup with the Versatile QUIK-LOK™ Attachment System

Powered by M18 FUEL^™, the QUIK-LOK^™ Attachment System utilises the most advanced cordless technology to deliver best-in-class power and run time for landscaping and trade professionals. The System also achieves instantaneous throttle response while being up to 1 KG lighter than the other options on the market.

“Attachment systems are not a new concept, but what makes QUIK-LOK^™ so remarkable is that, through our advanced M18 FUEL^™ cordless technology, we’re able to deliver a versatile solution that not only achieves instant throttle response for more control, but it’s also fully compatible with the M18^™ system which offers more than 145 other solutions. Plus, the ability to switch out multiple attachments based on the application will make jobs quicker, easier and more cost-effective,” said Gustaf Sjoberg,  Product Manager for Milwaukee Tool. “This is a huge breakthrough for users who are frustrated with gas solutions or investing in multiple battery platforms to use higher voltage options.”

Users can enter the QUIK-LOK^™ Attachment System through the M18 FUEL^™ Power Head with QUIK-LOK^™ or M18 FUEL^™ Line Trimmer with QUIK-LOK^™. Once installed in the QUIK-LOK^™ Attachment System, users can easily add on any additional attachments they need, when they need them.
