Husqvarna unveils several new products
As always, Husqvarna came to GIE+EXPO with plenty of new products, including two new articulated riding mowers, a collection system for commercial zero-turn mowers, three blowers and three snow throwers.
The R220T and R322T AWT articulated riding mowers are packed with consumer-friendly features that will make maneuvering around lawn obstacles a breeze. They boast a dynamic 48-inch side-discharge deck with increased number of cutting heights, new engine offerings and improved ergonomics. The R322T comes standard with all-wheel drive. “These articulated mowers were designed with the customer in mind, providing them with ultimate ease-of use when mowing,” said Sean Dwyer, Husqvarna Global product manager. “It’s like mowing your lawn with a sports car.”
Husqvarna also introduced a new dump from seat (DFS) collection system for the Husqvarna PZ and Dixon DX200 commercial zero-turn mowers. The 11-bushel collection system includes a 12-gauge-steel hopper and high-density polyethylene hood to provide long-lasting durability and a convenient spring-assisted release handle accessible from the seated position. A deck-driven blower assist accelerates debris through the tube and into the hopper.
Speaking of blowers, Husqvarna debuted three backpack blowers. The Husqvarna 570 and 580 models have air speeds of 236 and 206 mph and air volumes of 770 and 908 cfm, respectively. Like the 580, the RedMax EBZ8500 boasts a 206-mph air speed and 908-cfm air volume.
Just in time for winter, Husqvarna unleashed its all-new ST 121E single-stage snowthrower and 1827 EXLT and 1830 EXLT dual-stage track-drive snowthrowers.
