What really sets teh BC520 apart is that 51.7cc displacement—it’s got more guts than most trimmers in this class, and at 2.3hp you’re not going to bog down in thick brush or stuff that’s been left a week too long.
We usually see buyers running a 25:1 mix, so it’s your standdard two-stroke gasoline setup, nothing exotic, and that centrifugal clutch means you can kick revs up without the head spinning when you’re just carrying it between spots.
It ships with CE cert, obviously, and the 1.1L tank gives you about forty minutes of hard give or take, depending on the blade—I’ve seen guys do a full acre on a single tank if they’re not pushing it in saplings.
Anyway, the dual-handle design is pretty nice for control, especially on slopes, but honestly the 10kg weight is what it is—lighter than the old steel shaft units we had a decade ago, but you’ll still feel it after two hours.
For ordering, we usually stock both nylon line heads and a set of blades (the 3-tooth is most popular), but if you want custom blade packs or just the bare unit, just note that on your PO—MOQ is typically 10 units for special configurations, otherwise singles are fine.
One thing buyers don’t always ask about but should: the spiral gear transmission doesn’t love heavy sludge, so if you’re in wet clay or boggy ground, plan on rinsing the head area after use—twenty seconds of hose work saves you a rebuild down the line.
Mix unleaded gasoline with 2-cycle oil at a 25:1 ratio. Use a high-quality air-cooled 2-stroke engine oil for best performance.
We require a minimum order of 50 units per model. For smaller quantities, please contact us to check stock availability.
Each unit comes with CE certification and we can provide a Certificate of Conformance. Additional documents like test reports or material certificates are available upon request.
Yes, the cutter supports 2/3/4/8-tooth blades, bamboo blade, round saw, and nylon cutter. The standard package includes one blade of your choice; other blades are optional extras.
Drain the fuel tank and run the engine until it stalls to avoid gumming. Clean the unit, store it in a dry place, and keep the blade lubricated to prevent rust.
