GTM Professional Elephants Trunk 3 - Ergonomic Harness for Effortless Hedge Trimming

Revolutionise your hedge trimming experience with the GTM Professional Elephants Trunk 3, the innovative ergonomic harness designed to eliminate fatigue and prevent debilitating back pain. This cutting-edge solution is a game-changer for professional arborists, landscapers and garden maintenance crews across the UK, allowing for extended periods of hedge cutting without discomfort.

Worn intuitively like a backpack, the Elephants Trunk 3 provides superior support, transferring the weight of your hedge trimmer for a more balanced and comfortable operation — reducing perceived tool weight by around 3kg, and suited to hedge trimmers and blowers in the 4.5-8kg range. Its intelligent design prioritises optimal ventilation, ensuring you stay cool even during demanding tasks in warmer weather.

Achieve a perfect, customised fit for any body type thanks to the easily adjustable shoulder and hip straps. This bespoke comfort means you can focus entirely on achieving precise hedge lines and efficient garden maintenance, rather than battling strain. The Elephants Trunk 3 is an essential piece of ergonomic PPE that empowers you to work longer, more effectively and without compromise.

How It Works

You easily connect the tool to the steel cable with the large carabiner. For hedge trimmers with battery drive or two-hand safety, a small carabiner with special strap is included to attach the tool.

The cable is smoothly guided by the ball-bearing nylon rollers and automatically follows your arm movements.

The Elephants Trunk is carried like a backpack, comfortably and without limiting your range of motion. This allows you to work effortlessly and safely with higher efficiency.

Technical Details

Why Choose the GTM Elephants Trunk 3?

GTM specialises in ergonomic support systems for power tool operators, and the Elephants Trunk 3's ball-bearing roller cable is a genuine mechanical advantage over simple strap-and-hook harnesses — it follows your arm movement automatically rather than fighting it. Choose the Trunk 3 for heavier tools in the 4.5-8kg range; for lighter petrol or battery hedge trimmers, the Elephants Trunk 2.2 is available at a lower price point.
