Product overview
The Husqvarna 520iHE3 is a battery-powered extended hedge trimmer designed for high, quiet and low-emission pruning. As an installer I’d stress that this unit is supplied without battery or charger and accepts Husqvarna 36V batteries. It combines a long reach and adjustable cutter angle with a brushless motor for consistent cutting performance and reduced maintenance.
Efficient brushless motor
The in-house BLDC brushless motor delivers consistent torque and is about 25% more efficient than a standard brushed motor, which means reliable cutting performance and less routine maintenance.
Power-conserving savE™ mode
savE™ mode lets you reduce rpm to maximise run time and lower noise for lighter tasks. Use it when full power isn’t required to extend battery life and reduce disturbance on site.
Long reach and adjustable cutter
Extended shaft gives up to 3.5 m reach so you can trim high hedges from the ground. The cutter bar can be angled for ergonomic positions when working at different heights.

Key features

Efficient brushless motor
Our in-house developed, advanced brushless motor is 25 % more efficient than a standard brush motor. This means that the motor provides a high and consistent torque.

Power-Conserving savE™ Mode
SavE™ mode maximises the run time, reduces noise levels and preserves product battery life by lowering the rpm. Ideal for tasks that do not require full power. Just press the button to turn savE™ mode on and off.

Linear Power Output
Specially selected components, intelligent electronics, and an efficient cooling system ensure consistent, high output power regardless of the battery’s charge level. This helps maintain productivity throughout use.

Intuitive key pad
The keypad is intuitive to operate, and you can easily adjust the settings with just the push of a button.

Battery Through Body Design (Pat.pend.)
Smart battery pack position, placed horizontally through the body of the machine. Reduces the risk of having dirt, chips, dust and water accumulate in the battery compartment, causing connector issues. Also, it means the weight of the battery can be placed in or near the desired centre of gravity and in the rotational axis of the product, resulting in increased maneuverability. The through body design also offers a high degree of flexibility since it allows battery packs of different sizes to be used.

Synchronized Output
This technology features intelligent interaction between the tool and battery, ensuring optimized output power for each specific combination. To extend battery life, the output power can also be temporarily adjusted in situations where the tool is used too intensively.

Ergonomic handle
Ergonomically shaped handle for greater comfort and easy access to the controls.

Metal housing
The robust but very slimmed metal housing is one of many durable elements on the product. It is designed to protect motor and gears.

Cutting speed
The 4000 cuts per minute ensure great cutting results.

Convenient control
Convenient one hand grip to adjust the angle of the cutting deck.

Angle adjustment
The angle adjustment enable ergonomic working positions when cutting both high and low hedges.

Long reach
Long reach for increased capacity. The cutter bar can be set at various angles to the shaft, so you can cut the top while standing on the ground.

Transport mode
Cutter bar easy foldable into transport mode for a more compact size. Facilitates transport and storage.

Rear impact guard
The rear-impact guard protects the integrated battery from wear and damage.

Lightweight and well balanced
Slimmed and ergonomic design makes it lightweight and well balanced – allowing you to work comfortably in all situations.

Quiet Operation
Low noise levels create pleasant work and enable longer working hours, even in the most public settings. The noise level from our battery machines is up to 13 dB(A) lower than a petrol machine. A reduction of 3 dB(A) is usually perceived as a halving of the noise level.

Low Carbon Emissions
By choosing this product, you can feel confident that it produces lower carbon emissions during active use compared to a traditional petrol product. This battery-driven product does not emit any CO₂ during use while still providing the power and quality that you expect from a Husqvarna product. However, it’s important to note that CO₂ emissions are generated during other stages of the product´s lifecycle, such as production, charging and end-of-life disposal.

Low Maintenance
No fuel refilling, fewer parts and electronically-controlled drive system for less downtime

Gear up for nonstop operation
Our battery accessories allow you to carry on and get the job done as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Weatherproof (IPX4)
This battery-powered Husqvarna machine fulfils the IPX4 classification for rain resistance. This makes it a long-lasting and reliable tool that can be used all year round in all weather conditions.
FAQs
Will this fit my machine?
Fitment can vary by model and deck size. Send us your mower model (and deck size if applicable) and we’ll confirm compatibility before you order.
Do I need any extra brackets or fitting kits?
Some accessories require a mounting kit or specific brackets depending on your machine. If you’re unsure, ask us and we’ll advise the correct setup.
Can you fit it for me?
Yes — if you’d like installation, let us know when ordering and we can arrange fitting (collection, workshop fit, or on-site depending on the product).
Is the battery or charger included?
No. The 520iHE3 is supplied as the tool only. It is compatible with Husqvarna 36V batteries and chargers, which must be purchased separately.
What reach and cutting capacity does the machine have?
The extended shaft offers up to 3.5 m reach. The cutter has a 55 cm knife length, 32 mm teeth opening and a cutting speed of 4,000 cuts/min for efficient trimming.
Can I use the trimmer in wet conditions?
The machine has an IPX4 classification for rain resistance, so it withstands light rain. As good practice, avoid operating in heavy downpours and do not charge batteries while they are wet.
