Features
Manual fuel pump
FOR FEWER STARTING STROKES. The manual fuel pump reduces the number of strokes required to start the tool, making the start-up process quicker and easier This is particularly helpful after longer breaks in operation. To use it, actuate the pump several times before starting. This will ensure that there is enough petrol in the carburettor when starting.
Single-handed multi function handle
COMFORTABLE OPERATION. Thanks to the single-handed multi-function handle, you can control your tool easily and reliably with one hand. Because all relevant control elements are integrated in the handle, it can be operated by both right-handed and left-handed users.
Loop handle
MORE FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT IN NARROW SPACES. The loop handle makes work in narrow spacers easier, such as clearing between bushes, shrubs or park benches. The practical handle position allows you to move your tool freely and to guide it easily and precisely, even in confined spaces.
