Designed to be as comfortable to use as they are powerful, delivering reliable, constant power and torque in the most demanding environments

The Backpack brushcutter can tame difficult terrain with ultimate control. In fact, it's so comfortable and easy to use, you can strim fields and parkland until the cows come home.
Its precise manoeuvrability makes working through different types of foliage a breeze, and the flexible shaft gives you the extra control a fixed one just doesn’t have. So whether you’re battling thick undergrowth, steep grassy banks or tight spots around obstacles, our Backpack brushcutter will get through it. And with the choice to switch the nylon head for a heavy duty blade, it has the versatility to make big jobs easy.

The anti-vibration frame absorbs movement from the engine for absolute comfort.
So much innovative thinking has gone into our Backpack brushcutter to make sure it's comfortable and easy to use. Take the two-part anti-vibration clutch block for example – it absorbs movement from the engine to the shaft with a vibration absorber. This means you won't be worn down by uncomfortable tremors to your hands.
Specially-designed spring mountings form part of our Backpack brushcutter’s anti-vibration frame. It absorbs any tremors made by the engine on your back. This level of comfort allows you to keep working until, well, the petrol runs dry – and with its impressive fuel economy, it really does take a while.
The semi-automatic head feeds the nylon thread, simply by tapping it on the ground. Five inches in diameter, the head will hold over 56% more line than a traditional one, too. The small cutter that snips the line is made of metal – not plastic like other manufacturers'. That means it can be sharpened – a must for professional use.
Our unique safety guard makes it simple to change the nylon head for a heavy-duty three-tooth blade – it’s included with all UMK and UMR models. Ideal for tackling thick bushes, there’s no need to buy an additional guard either – the lower part is easily removed and reattached after changing the head.
The five-inch head holds lots more line.
With the same non-contact sealing bearings as used by NASA, the brushcutter head also has a longer lifetime and better dust-proof performance compared to traditional full contact bearings. This means our brushcutters can keep on going.

The patented brushcutter guard is easily removed to attach this three-tooth blade.
You wouldn't wear clothes that didn't fit – why should the Backpack brushcutter harness be any different? The durable five-point harness slips the engine comfortably on to your back. Its wide variety of adjustment options mean it can be altered to suit lots of different body types, for a secure and tailored fit – just like a glove.

The Backpack brushcutter's specially-designed harness shares the weight of the engine between your waist and shoulders, freeing your arms and maximising the control you have over the flexible shaft. It's great for manoeuvring the cutter head around obstacles for long periods of use.
The secure harness also means you have great balance and a low centre of gravity. It really comes in handy when working on tricky slopes or uneven ground.
The part-flexible shaft makes handling easy.

With the engine on your back, you can maintain delicate control over the cutter head.

They just keep on going. That’s why we can offer you a rock-solid warranty for domestic and professional use on our core range products, covering both parts and labour.
It maintains the same value throughout the warranty period – meaning the last day of cover is exactly the same as the first. Solid and dependable – just like our garden equipment.
