Kawasaki TJ 53 E M - Professional petrol brush cutter - Blue Bird rod

The brush cutter powered by Kawasaki TJ 53 EM engine is a heavy-duty tool which combines power, efficiency, reliability and versatility at the same time. This brush cutter is the ideal tool for hard cutting operations such as trimming tall grass and shrubs. The adjustable handlebar ensures correct movements while working, which helps avoiding the typical pains of prolonged work sessions.

Why choose a Kawasaki brush cutter? 2-stroke brush cutters with original Kawasaki engine are the most advanced machines on the market thanks to their absolute efficient in every aspect:

• High rpm rate
• Highest power output of its category
• Renowned Kawasaki reliability
• Extremely lightweight, only 8 kg
• 30% lower consumption
• Quick and efficient start
• Reduced compression at start-up thanks to KAR system
• Reduced polluting emissions
• Low noise with the new SQS muffler
• Extremely durable made in Italy transmission

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

Kawasaki TJ 53 E is a 53.2 cc, 2-stroke, air-cooled and horizontal axis engine. This type of engine is particularly renowned for having an excellent power to weight ratio, which makes it particularly suitable for long work sessions.

Equipped with a single cylinder, it develops a max. power of 2.68 CV at 8500 rpm, and a torque of 3.00 Nm at 5000 revolutions per minute.

It has a centrifugal clutch and a diaphragm carburetor, and it is very easy to operate thanks to the recoil start system with self-recovery, the cold-start pump and the air choke system.

It is also equipped with a lightened piston, dynamically balanced flywheel and a patented Kawasaki layered exhaust system.

The weight and the size of the engine are highly reduced, only 4.5 kg dry per 20x29x27 cm.

The cutting tool features a 1.1 L tank and the Kawasaki TJ 53 E engine runs on mixture.

Focus on the access to the spark plug.

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 under 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 Kawasaki 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 Kawasaki 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. It is the biggest bevel gear of this category, which is also evident from its massive and voluminous size.

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

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

Increasingly, brush cutters with Kawasaki 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 Kawasaki 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 additional protection band equipped with removable counter blade. It has to be mounted to work with line heads and removed for operating with the discs or any other attachment.

The brush cutter with Kawasaki TJ 53 EM engine is equipped with an ergonomic anti-vibration handlebar with adjustable inclination: just loosen the 4 screws and adjust it forwards or backwards.

The handlebar is asymmetrical, the left arm is extended and away from the shaft, while the right arm, the one with the control knob, is closer to the shaft. This configuration allows the operator to maintain a correct position of the arms, not off-centre towards the brush cutter, working in total comfort even for several hours.

Focus on the controls grip, the throttle control, the power switch and the safety switch.
