With so many brushcutters and line trimmers available on the market today it is difficult to review them all. We provide a guide to selecting a brush cutter or line trimmer. Features to look for in a brushcutter, depending on intended use.

Straight Shaft, Bent Shaft - which is best ?
Straight shaft brushcutters are designed for heavy work and will run a blade as well as as line. With a straight shaft brushcutter the head attatches to the shaft via a gear box. Many users find Straight shaft brushcutters are also easier to use on sloping embankments.
Bent shaft line trimmers are ideal for lighter use, the head is designed to be at an angle that is best suited for trimming.
So if you are after a machine for commercial use or for heavy duty use, probably a straight shaft brushcutter is best. If you are after a machine for light work around the home, a good quality bent shaft line trimmer will do the job and may even be easier to handle. |
Brushcutter and Line Trimmer Heads
|
Three main types of brushcutter heads, auto feed, bump feed and blade.
|
Auto feed Brushcutter or line trimmer head.
|
Auto feed heads work on centrifugal pressure to automatically feed out line, as the line gets shorter, it feeds out more line.
|
Bump feed Brushcutter or line trimmer head. |
Bump feed heads require a 'bump' on a hard surface to release more line, not as convienient as auto feed, but may save on line, as some auto feeds tend to let out a little to much each time.
|
Blade Heads |
These are for heavy work, blackberries and the like. |
Petrol or Electric line trimmer?
|
Elecrtic are fine for light work in a small area. Otherwise its petrol. |
WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A BRUSHCUTTER or LINE TRIMMER
Determine what you will use it for. Look for a reputable name. Check out the ease of reloading the line. A cheap line trimmer or brush cutter is usually that, 'cheap'. You get what you pay for.
