The Oleo-Mac Sparta 250-TR is the result of many years of research and development, which have led to the production of a high-powered machine characterised by its cleaning-burning operation and exceptional efficiency.

This is down to Oleo-Mac's innovative Burn Right technology, which cuts nasty carbon emissions by 75%, and produces fuel savings of up to 40% compared to a standard two-stroke strimmer.

The curved-shaft design of this model means it can be turned on its side for edging, and offers the ideal working angle for regular grass trimming and mowing.

Its nylon-line head will handle thick nettles and weeds, and boasts a time saving bump-feed line-jog system; its self-lubricating transmission-shaft bushings minimise vibration to ensure long hours of low-fatigue landscaping.

The Sparta 250-TR is driven by a high-spec 25.4cc air-cooled engine that's rated at a sizeable 1hp, and which develops aggressive torque, even at low revs.

A generously proportioned, 0.75 litre fuel tank lessens downtime by keeping you going for longer; a fuel primer makes for reliable, hassle-free starting.

One of the lightest petrol strimmers on the market, the Oleo-Mac Sparta 250-TR weighs-in at a minimal 4.5kg.

It's built with durability to the fore, with a forged-steel driveshaft and connecting rod delivering an extended service life; and it boasts a centrifugal clutch, which disengages the cutter head at low engine speeds for less wear and enhanced user safety

For maintenance purposes, the air filter on the 250-TR is accessible by simply pressing a release catch; no tools required.

The Oleo-Mac Sparta 250-TR Curved-Shaft Petrol Grass-Trimmer has an ergonomic adjustable handle for ease of use, and benefits from classic Italian styling, making it as attractive to look at as it is efficient and practical in use.

The best-priced product in its class, this model is backed by an extended three-year warranty.
