Performance

Optimized engine performance

Optimized engine performance through efficient cylinder design, digital ignition system and X-Torq engine technology.

Fits multiple blade bushings

Blades with 20 mm and 25.4 mm bore can be fitted thanks to the reversible blade bushing.

Maintenance-free starter

The patented, dust-sealed starter unit seals the return spring and the pulley bearing. This makes the starter virtually maintenance free further boosting the reliability of our cutters.

Active Air Filtration

Husqvarna’s two-step filtration system with centrifugal cleaning and a single paper filter increases product life and extends service intervals.

Poly-V belt

Provides better transmission of power, less frequent re-tensioning and extended service intervals.

Blocks, curbstones and pavers

Cutting building blocks, curbstones and garden pavers.

Rescue cutting

Cutting in rescue operations.

Exceptionally low vibrations

Vibrations below 25m/s2 in the cutter handles for more comfort and longer operation periods.

Maintenance-free air filter

The only time the filter needs to be checked and changed is if you experience a lack of power.

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.

DualCharge

New DualCharge engine technology provides more power, lower fuel consumption and greatly reduced emissions.

Reduced wear

Reduced wear thanks to the drive belt with a fully sealed transmission, which keeps out the cutting dust.

Anti-vibration system

Husky’s anti-vibration system reduces vibrations in the cutter handles, so they’re more comfortable to hold and can be used for longer periods. The distance between the handles is large to enable the user a comfortable operating position and to reduce strain. The handles and the short engine body mean the user always stands close to the machine, for easier handling and control.

SmartCarb

Husqvarna’s built-in automatic filter compensation maintains high power during the air filter lifetime.

Burying of cables

Burying of all kinds of cables.

Floors and walls

High power with less fuel

Husky’s built-in automatic filter compensation SmartCarb maintains high power and lowers fuel consumption.

Easy to change blade guard position

The light magnesium blade guard facilitates cutting, thanks to its step-less adjustment.

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.

Cuts close to walls or ground

The cutting arm is reversible which lets you cut closer to walls or the ground. The drive belt has a fully sealed transmission. This keeps out cutting dust, reducing wear on the belt.

DuraStarter

Husqvarna’s virtually maintenance-free starter, thanks to the dust-sealed starter and the durable starter cord.
