French term (edited):
débroussailleuse thermique
petrol brush-cutter
This is the more formal term appropriate for use in this context — especially as this model can also be fitted with a rigid blade, which is the specific characteristic of a brush-cutter, as distinct from a purely line-cutter (often referred to as a 'coupe-bordure')
