Oleo-Mac BCH-500T Petrol Brushcutter

From Oleo-Mac’s H-Series range of intensive-use brushcutters, this high-performance petrol machine advantageously combines simplicity of operation with exceptional efficiency and an unfailingly high and consistent work rate.

Supplying the power is a large-displacement 50.9cc Emak two-stroke EasyStart motor that develops an impressive 2.8hp, and which is capable of handling regular periods of continuous heavy-duty use, thanks to its two-ring piston, die-cast nickel-plated cylinder and forged con-rod/crankshaft.

Oleo-Mac’s convenient Always-On system ensures the ‘on/-off’ switch always resets to ‘on’ after each stop; a premium electronically controlled digital coil (with rev limiter) makes starting easy, and provides uniform combustion for improved fuel economy.

Further high-specification engine features include an aluminium cover and clutch housing, which minimise machine-weight without compromising on durability; and a generously proportioned paper air filter, which provides optimum protection against the ingress of damaging, service-life-limiting dust and debris.

The Oleo-Mac BCH-500T Petrol Brushcutter comes as standard with a 13cm twin-line cutter head and a 25.5cm three-tooth metal blade, so it’s just as at home tidying lawn edges and fence lines as it is clearing large areas of bramble and nettles (the cutting-cord diameter is an extra-thick 3mm).

Also key on the BCH-500T is its ‘bike’ (or ‘cowhorn') handlebar, which is the professionals' choice, due to the natural lateral sweeping action they allow.

This model comes with a comfort-cushioned double shoulder harness, which works to keep fatigue at bay throughout lengthy landscaping sessions.
