This ultra-lightweight petrol brushcutter is one of the most compact brushcutters in its class and has been designed to deliver professional standards of build and performance, while remaining affordable to the serious domestic gardener.

The Italian-engineered Oleo-Mac BC241T Petrol Brushcutter is driven by a super-efficient 21.7cc (1.2hp) two-stroke engine that develops aggressive torque; and which is characterised by its superior fuel-economy - you'll enjoy an extra-long 50-minute run-time on just one tank of petrol (the 0.4-litre tank is transparent for at-a-glance level-checking).

Built to last, the engine boasts a two-ring piston; a die-cast nickel-plated cylinder; and a forged-steel crankshaft/connector rod.

A digital-coil works with Oleo-Mac's EasyOn system to ensures dependable, low-effort starting; while an aluminium clutch-cover provides rust-resistant and helps to minimise machine-weight.

The Oleo-Mac BC241T comes supplied with an innovative Load & Go head that means you can reload the cutting-cord in seconds, no tools required.

The head employs thick 2.4mm line for effective grass-trimming and boasts a time-saving and hassle-eliminating bump-feed mechanism - a simple tap of the head on the ground will see new cord spooled out.

Engineered with ergonomics to the fore, the Oleo-Mac BC241T Ultralight Petrol Brushcutter features vibration-damping that spares the operator's body from undue stress and strain; and is fitted with an angled 'cowhorn'-type handlebar that facilitates a comfortable and natural side-to-side 'sweeping' action.

Further enhancing comfort and ease of use is an adjustable shoulder-harness.

Other key benefits include a heavy-duty guard that protects the user from any debris or stones that might be thrown up; and a metal brushcutting blade (optional) you can fit if you need to tackle more challenging undergrowth.
