Efficient Performance for Challenging Hedges
The Cobra LRH26C is a petrol long reach hedgetrimmer specifically designed to tackle the most awkward and demanding jobs in the garden. Powered by a robust 26cc 2-stroke Cobra engine, it delivers 0.65kW of power, ensuring a smooth and efficient cut every time. This model is ideal for domestic users with tall, wide, or difficult-to-reach hedges and bushes that require regular maintenance.
Designed for Reach and Versatility
Featuring a long, 62cm (24″) double-sided blade, the LRH26C provides excellent coverage with each pass. The generous 30mm tooth spacing allows it to cut through thicker stems and branches with ease. The standout feature is its 135° articulating cutting head, which enables the user to trim the tops and sides of hedges from various angles, all while standing safely on the ground. With an impressive overall length of 251cm, even the tallest hedges are within reach.
Comfort and Control
Despite its long reach, the Cobra LRH26C is designed for user comfort. It features an ergonomic loop handle for precise control and includes a single shoulder harness as standard. The harness helps to distribute the machine’s 7.5kg weight, reducing operator fatigue during extended periods of use and making it easier to manage the hedgetrimmer safely and effectively.

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is the Cobra LRH26C best suited for?
This long reach hedgetrimmer is ideal for homeowners and keen gardeners who have tall, wide, or awkwardly shaped hedges that are difficult to maintain safely with a standard hedgetrimmer. Its extended reach eliminates the need for ladders in most situations, making it a safer choice.
What is the benefit of the 135° articulating head?
The articulating head allows you to adjust the angle of the cutting blades. This is extremely useful for trimming the flat top of a tall hedge or shaping the sides with precision, all while maintaining a comfortable and safe standing position on the ground.
Does this hedgetrimmer come with a harness?
Yes, the Cobra LRH26C is supplied with a single shoulder harness. This helps to support the machine’s 7.5kg weight, distributing the load across your body to reduce fatigue and improve control during longer periods of use.
What fuel mixture does the 2-stroke engine require?
A 2-stroke engine requires a mixture of unleaded petrol and high-quality 2-stroke engine oil. The exact ratio should always be confirmed in the user manual, but it is typically a 40:1 or 50:1 mix. Using the correct fuel-to-oil ratio is critical for the engine’s performance and longevity.
