If you have a dealer in the area, I seriously suggest you check out
"Tanaka".  . . Weed & brush-cutting "weedeater" type machines are their MAIN
line of business .  .  .  they have several home-style machines but they
have about FIFTEEN professional models . .  I saw a demonstration once and
they were awesome . . . they'll eliminate about half what you'd do with a
chainsaw!

(no Tanaka connection, I just appreciate good tools)
