Shindaiwa is a leading manufacturer of professional-quality outdoor power equipment, including trimmers and edgers, brushcutters, chain saws, hedge trimmers, blowers, sprayers, cut-off saws, PowerBrooms™, and models featuring the revolutionary C4 Technology®.
Shindaiwa products represent the latest in 2-cycle and micro 4-cycle engine technologies, reflected by outstanding power-to-weight ratios and features that promote longer unit life, quieter operation and reduced exhaust emission. We solicit user and dealer input on product performance, comfort, and safety. Then, we build our equipment to the tightest tolerances in the industry. And, each unit is run and carefully adjusted before it leaves our factory.
The Displacement Myth: Some manufacturers would have you believe that the only way to a powerful engine is large displacement. But at Shindaiwa, we know that compression, port size and shape, carburetion, and a host of other factors come into play as well. That's why our machines deliver more horsepower per unit of displacement than our competitors'. To get equivalent power from them, you have to buy a unit with a bigger, heavier engine that consumes more fuel, generates more emissions, and is, often, more costly.
By combining the high power-to-weight ratio and compactness of a 2-stroke engine with the precise fuel metering of a 4-stroke, Shindaiwa engineers have successfully developed a hybrid engine that delivers the best of both worlds. The lightweight, high-torque, multi-position characteristics and great throttle response of the 2-stroke; and the low noise, better fuel economy, and dramatically reduced exhaust gas emissions of the 4-stroke.
Each of our 4-stroke, C4 Technology® products is fueled by conventional 50:1 gas/oil mixture – just like a 2-stroke. No need for a separate oil sump and dipstick! It’s simply “business as usual” with 50:1 mix flowing fresh lubricant throughout the engine no matter what orientation – including upside down!*
