Irish hedgerows and verges demand serious kit. Whether you're a local authority, contractor, or farmer, you need a hedgecutter that’s reliable, easy to use, and tough enough to handle heavy growth season after season. That’s why so many in Ireland choose McConnel Power Arms.
With over 80 years of expertise and models proven in Irish conditions, McConnel’s range offers options for everyone – from farm use to full-time contract work – all backed by the Kverneland Group Ireland dealer network.
The McConnel Power Arm Range
McConnel offers one of the most comprehensive hedgecutter ranges on the market, with arm reaches from 5 m (16 ft 5 in) to over 9 m (31 ft 2 in) and power requirements from 55 hp to 85 hp.
Whether you’re cutting in tight lanes, maintaining embankments, or clearing long runs of dense hedgerow, there’s a Power Arm to suit.

55-Series – Compact and versatile, ideal for farmers, councils and lighter work.
67-Series – Mid-range machines for general contracting, with options up to 23 ft reach.
72- and 77-Series – Professional-grade with high-hour spec and options for VFR and telescopic arms.
82- and 85-Series – Heavy-duty Power Arms for demanding contractors needing maximum reach and strength.
Each series includes a variety of arm geometries and control options so you can match your machine to your workload.
Built for Irish Conditions
McConnel’s Power Arms aren’t just designed for neat hedges – they’re engineered for Ireland’s tough, stony, often overgrown boundaries.
Robust build with Strenx high-strength steel on top-end models.
Cast-iron pumps and motors for durability.
Quick-change blades for less downtime.
Parallel arm geometry for simple, precise verge work.
They’re designed for ease of operation and maintenance – with excellent access, clever storage options, and neat, balanced folding for transport.
Advanced Floatation and Control Systems
Operator comfort and finish quality matter. That’s why McConnel offers industry-leading floatation systems like Lift Float, Advanced Float, and the award-winning EDS (Easy Drive System).
These systems reduce scalping and operator fatigue, automatically adapting to ground contours even at higher working speeds – up to 18 km/h with EDS.
For professional contractors, these systems deliver faster work rates and cleaner results on even the most challenging ground.
