The Brushcutter

rough terrain and high grass

brushcutter_scoppio_elettrico

Used to cut grass in the most difficult and rough areas, to cut edges or tall grasses.

Can be used with a nylon wire cutting head useful for finishing work, or with a disc head (petrol models) to cut tall grasses.

He will be gripped like a sickle with both hands making him make slow passages in a semicircle keeping his head parallel to the ground.

Remember to use the guards to protect yourself from debris thrown by the cutting blade, ie boots, gloves, protective mask and where the ground is also dry the mask to avoid breathing dust raised by the cut.

Cutting discs and head with nylon

If the grass is high, probably the cutting head with nylon thread will be ineffective, use a rotating blade.

In these cases the head with chains could be very functional, more solid than nylon and more manageable than blades.
