The solo® by AL-KO BF 5002 R II combi device is a very powerful basic device and can be optionally converted for four applications. Whether as a scythe mower for garden maintenance and forage grass production, as a tiller for digging or hoeing, as a front sickle mower for clean mowing of meadows or simply attaching a ridging plough - with just a few simple steps you can equip the all-rounder with the right attachment and carry out the task efficiently and effortlessly.
The height-adjustable and swivelling (up to 180°) handlebar makes it extremely comfortable to use and allows easy manoeuvering even in narrow, winding courtyards and halls, on meadow and field edges. This makes the combi device a reliable and versatile helper for every home and garden owner who wants to complete all the tasks around their property with just one machine.
With the 3.8kW output of its powerful Loncin 196cc petrol engine, the combi machine is ideally equipped to take on a wide range of tasks efficiently, saving time and with little strain on the operator. The transmission is operated via a worm gear in an oil bath, thus ensuring a long service life.
The wheel drive with forward and reverse gear (2.2/1.1km/h) ensures consistent work and fast, effortless passage through any terrain, increases safety when operating the machine and makes the machine extremely manoeuverable.
The basis for the precise and fatigue-free machine control of the mighty powerhouse is already laid in the design: the short single-axle machine with extra-large wheels with foam filling and a coarse-tread farmer's profile ensures perfect traction. You can also get through slopes of up to approx. 20°, with tall grass and wild growth, efficiently and effortlessly.
Almost limitless in its use – four devices in one: you can easily convert the basic device from one application to another with its quick-fit attachment system in no time at all.
The solo® by AL-KO combi tool engine unit is a versatile 4-in-1 all-rounder for lawn care and soil cultivation.
