Brush Cutters
Portable String trimmers, Weedeaters ®
History
Individually
operated weed cutting devices have been used for centuries whether large
or small, these brush cutters were usually a type of scythe. Portable engine
powered tools with a spinning blade gained acceptance in the 1950's. It's
generally accepted that an American invented the Weedeater, which was an
electrically powered motor, spinning a string like material. Weedeater is
the commonly used vernacular to describe the many tools used to cut weeds
with a portable power source.
Solo Story
Solo developed 2 cycle powered brush
cutting trimmers in the
1950's and continued to develop the engine and design technology needed to
provide lightweight power, efficiency and durability for brush cutters and
string trimmers.
Modern Brush Cutters
Since String trimmers,
Weedeaters and blade capable brush cutters use a spinning head and single
cylinder engine, a great deal of vibration is generated as the spinning
stringhead or blade do their work. Solo brush cutter units use a unique dual vibration control system to keep vibration
isolated from the hands and arms of the operator. This reduces fatigue and
makes the work easier. Features that make starting easier, edging a snap,
improve operator comfort and convenience are all standard, on these
mid-price range units.
Today Solo manufactures a complete line of
2 cycle engine powered string trimmers
and brush cutters which can meet virtually every need.
