Husqvarna is expanding its offering to tree care professionals with two new 40cc petrol chainsaws.
540 XP® Mark III is a completely new rear-handle chainsaw. It is developed for arborists and tree care professionals who prefer it to top-handle saws, for instance when working from a bucket truck, but also for anyone looking for a professional chainsaw when working with lighter forestry work such as thinning.
T540 XP® Mark III is a top-handle chainsaw with a new powerful engine that is even more reliable than previous generations in hot and cold starts, and has improved runability during use.
With these two new products, Husqvarna is broadening its range of chainsaws for arborists, tree surgeons and loggers.
Ordes, 5 October 2022.- Husqvarna has made chainsaws for more than 60 years and is now taking another step to meet the needs of tree care professionals even better. The T540 XP® Mark III was designed specifically to be a reliable saw with high manoeuvrability and plenty of power for section felling and cutting thick branches. Thanks to a brand-new engine, the saw provides great cutting capacity and enables users to do more work in less time. At the same time, the weight is kept low to produce a high power-to-weight ratio.
To complement the T540 XP® Mark III, Husqvarna has also released the 540 XP® Mark III – a brand-new rear-handle chainsaw designed for ground staff and lighter forestry work. Like its top-handle counterpart, the rear-handle model is lightweight and easy to carry while working. This makes it an ideal saw for anyone felling and thinning smaller trees.
High reliability and comfort
Both models feature AutoTune 3.0 and a simplified starting technology, which ensures that the engine starts with less effort than previous generations. The result is an even more reliable saw that will start regardless of the conditions in the park or forest. The engine is also easy to refill thanks to flip-up tank caps that are easy to open and close.
The saws come with a user-centric design and high manoeuvrability which makes them easy and ergonomic to use when climbing and working up in a tree. Both are also equipped with Air Injection which prevents the air filter from getting clogged up. This further improves reliability and minimizes the time users have to spend maintaining their saws. Additionally, the saws were designed to minimize vibrations to make them more comfortable to use during long work shifts.
Users have the option to connect the chainsaws to Husqvarna Fleet Services™ to keep track of usage and when the products need to be serviced. They are also delivered with Husqvarna’s X-CUT and X-Precision chains to further improve cutting performance.
