Spectrum DM26H Petrol Brushcutter and strimmer
The Spectrum DM26H Petrol Brushcutter offers top build-quality, great features and superior cutting performance, all at a fantastically low price!
Developing a sizeable 1hp is a super-efficient, 25.4cc, air-cooled two-stroke engine with a roomy, runtime maximising fuel tank, which is translucent for easy tracking of how much mixture’s left (for two-stroke oil, click here).
The Spectrum DM26H is supplied with two cutter heads: there’s a 41.5cm, twin-line strimmer head for lighter-duty mowing and edge tidying; and a 25.4cm, three-tooth metal blade you can fit should a more aggressive approach be required. Thius means the machine is great for strimming larger areas of over growth such as grass, weeds, nettles as well as heavier growth like brambles when using the metal blade. The machine is also supplied with a body harness to make it lighter and easier to use. The double handle is great where you are using the machine on larger areas for longer times.
A bump-feed mechanism makes line-advance quick and simple with no need to attend directly to the cutter head; a professional ‘cowhorn’ (or ‘U’) handlebar confers the ultimate in control and manoeuvrability.
All our Spectrum DM products are designed to be easy to start, light weight and easy to useWe always recommend the use of safety items such as goggles and ear protection with this type of product
When you order these machines its always a good idea to get some spare trimmer line, 2 stroke oil and fuel can

Herbie Rolls –
Compass are a good company to deal with. They talked this purchase through with me and then delivered as they promised. The item is easy to use and does a great job. It is much lighter than the old one and seems more powerful. Love the colour

We are a nationwide firm of Lanscapers. Our guys popped into Compass as we had a local disaster with the Stihl asset on the truck. The guys got this to get them out of trouble. We cannot get them to use the Stihl now. They say this is lighter and more efficient. Looks like we will have to buy more! Watch out Compass we will be comig for a bulk deal and thank you for all your help the other day
