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.

Long reach
The cutting bar is designed to give you a long reach, while still allowing you to work ergonomically.

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

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.

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.

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.

Telescopic tube
The tube has a telescopic function for quick cutting height adjustment

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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

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.

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

Interchangeable Battery System
Able to be used in all Husqvarna battery tools, our lithium-ion batteries are durable, easy to swap and recharge quickly

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