The world is an increasingly noisy place and sometimes (usually an otherwise relaxed Sunday) all the unnecessary noise around us can prove wildly frustrating. Help, however, is at hand. Husqvarna’s Battery Series of electric power equipment offers outstanding performance without the noise, pollution and hassle involved in running a petrol powered machine. More importantly, however, all of Husqvarna’s battery powered implements are also superbly quiet running, offering comfort and convenience for all in the immediate vicinity. Winner of the prestigious Red Dot Product Design Award in 2013, Husqvarna’s 536LiR is a powerful electric grass trimmer designed to stand up to heavy commercial use, perfect for professional gardeners, contractors and landscapers working in busy public and residential areas.
Husqvarna’s use of state of the art technology means that the 536LiR will far exceed the capabilities of most battery powered grass trimmers. The 536LiR’s hi-tech BLDC 36V Brushless electric motor, for example, has been designed to be 25% more efficient than a standard brush motor and thus delivers the constant high torque required to achieve professional quality results, even when working with high, thick or wet grass. The 536LiR’s long lasting Li-ion battery, meanwhile, is designed to be fast charging for added efficiency, while activating the handy ‘savE’ power saving system extends the battery life when working in less demanding conditions.
In terms of cutting power, the 536LiR’s tough dual nylon trimmer head provides the precision required for trimming edges and borders and, with a working width of 33cm, can also be used for taming larger patches of overgrown grass. For added convenience, meanwhile, an efficient ‘Tap & Go’ feed system makes it quick and simple to advance the cutting line; simply tap the trimmer head against the ground and the nylon line is set to an optimal working length. Furthermore, as the rotational direction of the cutting head can be switched at the touch of a button it is easy to control where clippings fall, providing a much neater finish with less grass left littering paths and driveways.
Importantly for a machine designed for commercial work, the 536LiR is also easy and comfortable to use, even over extended periods of time. As well as low levels of noise and vibration, the 536LiR is pleasingly light and well balanced, making it easy to handle even when working in confined spaces or on complex lawns. An ergonomically designed bullhorn handlebar, meanwhile, helps to ensure precise control and freedom of movement at all times. Moreover, the 536LiR is supplied with a comfortable harness which distributes the weight of the grass trimmer evenly to prevent any strain and ensure an optimal cutting position, offering you extra protection and boosting overall productivity.
Husqvarna’s 536LiR thus offers a level of power, convenience and efficiency with which few can compete, all the while remaining remarkably quiet running to enable earlier starts, later finishes and unimpeded work in built up areas without disturbing those nearby.
