Bertolini 403 Scythe Mower

If you’re maintaining
areas that are too large
or too densely overgrown
to tackle with a
conventional handheld
brushcutter, then the
Bertolini 403 is the
machine for you. It’s
equipped with an
extra-wide 115cm
scythe-blade that
guarantees a rapid
work-rate, and which is
capable of cutting
through everything from
thick, long grass;
through to invasive
bramble and even young
saplings. The Bertolini
403 Scythe Mower is
powered a solidly
dependable 163cc Honda
GX160 engine. This
four-stroke,
overhead-valve unit
offers a high
compression-ratio and
precise valve-timing for
superior fuel-efficiency;
and it combines improved
muffler technology with
precision-engineered
components to ensure
noise- and
vibration-levels are both
kept to a minimum. A
ball-bearing supported
crank and a cast-iron
cylinder-sleeve work to
maximise durability;
while a
decompression-valve means
only a gentle pull on the
starter-rope is needed
for ignition. Thanks to
its two-wheeled design
and lightweight,
perfectly balanced build,
the Bertolini 403 is
agile, manoeuvrable and
easy to control. It has a
four-speed gearbox (two
forward; two reverse),
which contributes further
to manoeuvrability,
while also enabling you
to operate at a
forward-speed which best
suits the nature of the
application. For enhanced
operator-comfort,
Bertolini have equipped
the 403 with a
vibration-isolated,
six-stage
height-adjustable
handlebar. The handlebar
can also be offset; ideal
when working with the
optional
tiller-attachment fitted.
All available attachments
are quick and simple to
fit; no tools required.
