Husqvarna adds to its 500 Series

Husqvarna has added two new products to its 500 Series of outdoor power equipment.

The new Husqvarna 525L Professional Trimmer and Husqvarna 525HF3S Hedge Trimmer feature the same advanced X-Torq engine technology that other 500 Series products do, combining high performance with fuel economy and lower exhaust emissions.

They also feature the LowVib anti-vibration dampener system, which employs a floating throttle handle for maximum user comfort.

"Tough jobs require reliable performance, and these stellar additions to the Husqvarna 500 Series are built to accommodate the needs of the professional," said Jeff Dewosky, VP and general manager, Husqvarna North America. "The entire line is popular with professionals who demand versatility, durability and innovative features. Professionals can expect further additions to the 500 Series, which will extend Husqvarna's reputation for building long-lasting, high-quality products that are 'ready when you are'."

The 525L Professional Trimmer is designed for semi-professional use, featuring intuitive controls for choke and purge, as well as Smart Start for easy engine engagement.

The 525HF3S Hedge Trimmer is a fixed-pole hedge trimmer comes with an in-line gearbox, offering better control through superior balance and optimal positioning.
