Practical, petrol-powered brushcutter engineered for frequent trimming of thick grass and weeds. As an installer I’d fit the supplied harness, check bevel-gear alignment and make sure the combi-guard and cutting attachments are mounted correctly before first use. The machine features an X-Torq engine and an efficient air filter to reduce wear and service costs.
Strong, fuel-efficient power
X-Torq engine increases torque across a wide rpm range for reliable cutting performance while reducing fuel consumption and emissions compared with conventional two-stroke designs.
Durable build for tough jobs
Heavy duty clutch, robust die‑casted handle clamp and proven bevel gear design stand up to long hours and heavy cutting equipment.
Versatile cutting setup
Combi-guard accepts either the supplied Multi 275-4 grass blade or the T35 M12 trimmer head, allowing quick change between blade and line cutting; nominal cutting width 46 cm.
