K 970

Sturdy, reliable, light and powerful - the K 970 power cutter is ready to perform when you are. The ultimate choice when you need an all-round cutter performing in the toughest conditions, withstanding climate and fuel variations. Suitable for road works when used with the corresponding KV 970 trolley. The trolley also means you can fully concentrate on the cutting job. Easy and optimal belt tensioning The semi-automatic SmartTension minimises the risk of under- and over tensioning. Maintenance-free air filter The only time the filter needs to be checked and changed is if you experience lack of power. Active Air Filtration™ Our two-step filtration system with centrifugal cleaning and a single paper filter increases product life and extends service intervals. DuraStarter™ Our virtually maintenance free starter, thanks to the dust-sealed starter and the durable starter cord. Fits multiple blade bushings Blades with 20mm and 25.4mm bore can be fitted thanks to the reversible blade bushing. Less slurry and low water consumption Excellent dust control with our wet cutting kit. A progressive water valve for exact adjustment of the water volume to efficiently bind the dust and reduce slurry. Wet cutting kit Less slurry and low water consumption thanks to the progressive water valve, this adjusts the water volume to the exact amount needed. Less emissions and fuel consumption Our X-Torq® engine produces less emissions, lower fuel consumption and produces more power. Sturdy and reliable Less sensitive to outer conditions and fuel variations, thanks to the cylinder design and muffler with integrated heat deflector. Easy to start The unique design of the carburettor, cylinder and digital ignition system, together with air purge and decompression valve ensure an easy start. Long service intervals A strong Poly-V belt combined with our maintenance-free starter DuraStarter™ and efficient filter-system Active Air Filtration™ ensures long service intervals. Decreased weight The magnesium blade guard contributes to enhanced ergonomics and increased power-to-weight ratio. Light and powerful A light, compact and powerful machine with superior power-to-weight ratio. Cuts close to walls or ground Possible thanks to the reversible cutting arm SmartCarb™ Our built-in automatic filter compensation maintains high power during the air filter life time. Poly-V belt Provides better transmission of power, less frequent re-tensioning and extended service intervals. Reduced wear Reduced wear thanks to the drive belt with fully sealed transmission, which keeps out the cutting dust. Easy to change blade guard position The light magnesium blade guard facilitates cutting, thanks to its step-less adjustment. High power with less fuel Our built-in automatic filter compensation SmartCarb™ maintains high power and lowers fuel consumption. Maintenance-free starter Our dust-sealed starter, where the return spring and the pulley bearing are sealed, gives a virtually maintenance free starter. Developed with a durable starter cord. Blade retarder Reduces the stop time of the blade when the machine is switched off, which enables you to quickly move on to the next job. Magnesium blade guard Contributes to a light weight which gives an improved power-to-weight ratio. New stepless adjustment makes it easier to change cutting position. Anti-vibration system Reduced vibrations in the cutter handle for more comfort and longer operation periods. Reversible cutting arm The drive belt with fully sealed transmission keeps out cutting dust for reduced wear and allows close cutting to walls and floor.
