These tools are a must-have for every kind of setting, be it around the house or around the workshop. With Husqvarna, portability and practicality all make for a big difference in the appeal, efficiency and durability of their blowers. Now is the time to try them out for yourself.

Petrol power with battery innovations

Can a battery blower be as effective as a powerful petrol-driven machine? The short answer is yes. Husqvarna battery blowers are driven by innovative battery technology. It will not only give you high performance but also has a low noise level, class-leading ergonomics and usability.

A Husqvarna Battery Blower can be used for both outside and indoor tasks, such as cleaning sheds. It has perfect balance, an instant start, cruise control and a boost power mode.

Ergonomic and comfortable to use

You can finish your job without getting tired and worn out. Husqvarna leaf blowers are all ergonomically designed and will save your back and arms from harm. The smart handle minimises tiring vibration and can be angled on most of our backpack blowers.

Many have rubber inserts for a stable, comfortable grip. The load-reducing harness makes your Husqvarna Backpack Blower comfortable and easy to use. And don’t worry about disturbing the neighbours – the battery blowers are designed to be quiet.

Handheld or backpack?

The important thing to consider when buying a blower is what it will be used for. If you are using it for shorter periods and smaller amounts of debris, it is better to choose a lightweight, agile hand-held leaf blower like the Husqvarna 125B. If you are working for longer periods and with more material to blow, a backpack blower is better.

The backpack blowers are divided into two categories, for general professional jobs and those for even more demanding tasks. The most powerful blower is the Husqvarna 580BTS, which has a filtered air intake for longer operating time and trouble-free use.

Turn the blower into a vacuum

A blower can also be turned into a vacuum cleaner to suck grass, clippings and leaves from the ground. It is especially useful in places where you don’t want to blow debris around, for example around a pond, or your parked car. The Husqvarna 125BVx comes with a vacuum kit included.

Battery or petrol?

Modern battery blowers are lightweight, strong, remarkably silent and nearly vibration-free. All Husqvarna products use the same type of charger and charging a 4.2 Ah battery takes 30-50 minutes. Some extra batteries or a backpack battery allow you to work a full day.

Battery blowers are perfect for indoor jobs, or when you are working in noise-sensitive areas, such as hospitals, schools and city parks. If you are doing heavier work, such as moving a large amount of wet leaves, we recommend that you consider a petrol backpack blower, as it is more appropriate for that task.

Things to consider when buying a leaf blower:

• Pick a blower with low vibration, to avoid fatigue and vibration injuries.
• Make sure it has sufficiently high air speed and airflow for the task.
• If you are working long hours, make sure that the backpack leaf blower comes with comfortable harnesses, and has a hip belt and wide shoulder straps for load-reduction.
