Bertolini BT401S Scythe Mower (Honda Engine)

This very high-performance home-use scythe mower from Italian manufacturers Bertolini is fitted with a premium-quality 95cm cutter-bar that will breeze its way through long, thick grass and dense, overgrown brush and bramble.

Key to its impressive cutting-capability is its blend of high-torque gearing with a high-powered 4.8hp Honda GX160 engine. The gears are sealed within an oil-bath for rock-solid operation under any conditions; while the engine employs an overhead-valve layout for superior fuel-economy, reduced exhaust emissions and unwavering dependability.

The Bertolini BT401S Scythe Mower offers a reverse-gear as well as the standard forward gear, so it will prove far more manoeuvrable than its single-speed competitors.

It’s fitted a width- and height-adjustable handlebar that makes it possible to achieve the optimum working-position; and it benefits from comprehensive vibration-damping, which works to protect the operator’s hands and arms from undue strain.

This model also utilises Bertolini’s QuickFit coupling technology, which means any of the numerous optional attachments can be fitted without fuss.
