Einhell GC-BC 52 I AS Thermal Brush Cutter Instruction Manual

Okwu mmalite

The Einhell GC-BC 52 I AS Thermal Brush Cutter is a powerful tool designed for effortlessly clearing tall and dense grass in hard-to-reach areas of your garden. Its high-quality, low-vibration 2-stroke engine with a double-bearing crankshaft delivers the necessary power. The digital ignition ensures rapid and dynamic fuel intake and stable engine operation. All controls are easily accessible on the adjustable aluminum universal handlebar, allowing for comfortable and precise tool guidance.

For efficient cutting, the GC-BC 52 I AS can be equipped with either a blade or a line. It comes supplied with a 3-tooth blade and a twin-line spool with automatic feed. The long aluminum shaft and adjustable handle ensure fatigue-free and precise operation. The 'Quick-Start' system, featuring an easily accessible primer and automatic choke, enables quick and simple starting. Safety during operation is ensured by a centrifugal clutch, which disengages the cutting tool when the engine is idling. For practical use, a comfortable harness is included. Thanks to its separable shaft, the brush cutter can be disassembled into two parts in a few simple steps for easy transport and space-saving storage.
