Honda GX 50 I - 4-stroke gasoline brush cutter - Blue Bird rod

The brush cutter with Honda GX 50 engine is a heavy-duty tool which combines power, efficiency, reliability and versatility at the same time.

Equipped with a powerful Honda GX 50 engine, which uses the latest technology to develop a power of 1.47kW.

This brush cutter is ideal for working in narrow working spaces thanks to its single handle and extreme manoeuvrability.

Why choose a Honda brush cutter? 4-stroke brush cutters are the most advanced machines on the market thanks to their absolute efficiency in every aspect:

• High rpm rate
• High power output
• Renowned Honda reliability
• Extremely light, it only weights 7 kg
• Powered by petrol, no need to prepare mixture
• 50% lower consumption than 2-stroke engines
• 70% less polluting emissions than 2-stroke engines
• 30% noise reduction compared to 2-stroke models
• 40% less vibration than 2-stroke models
• Quick and efficient start
• Reduced starting compression
• Extremely durable made in Italy transmission

The brush cutter is shipped already ASSEMBLED and ready for use (it is only necessary to tighten 4 screws on the stone guard)

The brush cutters powered by a HONDA GX 50 engine are particularly innovating products thanks to their 4-stroke petrol engines. Lower consumption, less polluting emissions, less noise and increased comfort thanks to the use of petrol:

• POLLUTING EMISSIONS: - 70% approx.
• CONSUMPTION: - 50% approx.
• NOISE LEVELS: - 30% approx.
• VIBRATION: - 40% approx.

Moreover, thanks to technological research, Honda invented the first 4-stroke engine which operates at any inclination. This configuration is called "any-side-up".

The Honda GX 50 is a 47.9 cc, air-cooled, 4-stroke engine. It is equipped with a single cylinder and it develops a max. power of 1.47 Kw / 2 Hp at 7000 rpm, and a torque of 2.2 Nm at 5500 rpm.

The weight and the size of the engine are highly reduced, only 3.3 kg dry per 20x23x23 cm³.

Equipped with a 0.63 L fuel tank, the Honda GX50 engine runs on unleaded petrol. Also equipped with a 130 ml oil tank, which feeds the unique lubrication system that Honda has developed for these engines.

No more fuel issues and no need to prepare the mixture or worry about having fresh mixture supplies. Eco-friendly engine: one of the least polluting models of this sector.

Focus on the recoil start system.

WARNING: the engine does not contain oil (read the instructions manual before use)

The Blue Bird Industries transmission shaft consists of an aluminium tube with a diameter of 28 mm which contains an 8 mm inner shaft made of high-strength steel.

It is equipped with 6 heavy-duty self-lubricating bushings to ensure long durability even in case of heavy-duty and demanding use.

The materials used for both the shaft and inner shaft are of the highest quality and made in Italy.

Increasingly, brush cutters with Honda engines and Chinese transmission systems are being introduced onto the market. When subjected to normal working stresses, these units deteriorate very quickly due to the low quality, low hardness and low thickness of the material used. In addition, the very high performance of the Honda engine would require a transmission of the same quality to enable the shaft to withstand the high level of power and performance of the engine.

The Blue Bird Industries bevel gear is entirely made of light alloy and inside it features 4self-lubricating bearings, 2 for the pinion and 2 for the crown gear. It is the biggest bevel gear of this category, as you can tell from its massive and voluminous size.

The crown gear and pinion are made of high-strength steel of the highest quality, extremely suitable to withstand mechanical strain.

Furthermore, the crown and pinion are entirely designed and moulded in Italy.

Increasingly, brush cutters with Honda engines and transmission systems with Chinese bevel gear are being introduced onto the market. When subjected to normal working stresses, these units deteriorate very quickly due to the low quality, low hardness and low thickness of the material used. In addition, the very high performance of the Honda engine would require a transmission of the same quality to enable the shaft to withstand the high level of power and performance of the engine.

Focus on the large stone guard with an additional protective band equipped with removable counter blade. Apply it to work with line heads and remove it for operating with the discs or any other attachment.

The brush cutter with Honda GX 50 I engine comes with a soft touch single handle, extremely comfortable to use. This handle is very versatile because you can tilt it as you prefer.

The high soft touch super comfort handle of this brush cutter reduces fatigue, allowing you to use the tool at the right position and angle with both arms extended and relaxed: in fact, the brush cutter allows you to work in the perfect position and inclination by placing the 2 handles on the same level.

The handle is called soft touch because of its soft rubber coating. In addition, it can be slid further forwards or backwards along the tube of the transmission shaft by simply loosening the 4 screws of its anchoring support.

Focus on the control handle, with the throttle control, power switch and safety switch.
