The feeling of battery power with a petrol bite

Husqvarna 542i XP® is a professional battery chainsaw designed for precision and responsiveness in demanding tasks. Its ability to instantly restart mid-cut gives you full control in every situation, helping you maintain momentum and accuracy without interruption. Optimised for robust cutting performance, the saw delivers fast, efficient results with the X-CUT® SP33G chain. All the benefits of battery – with the feeling and response of a petrol bite. This unique combination is made possible by the saw’s clutch, which enables the same instant restart and cutting control you’d expect from a petrol saw – but in a battery-powered format.

Estimated runtimes for Take down/removal with Husqvarna 542i XP®.

Runtimes for the backpack battery are not shown by default. To view them, please select the checkbox above.

Battery runtime on a single charge depends on several factors such as battery capacity, which kind of machine it powers, the type of application, and external conditions such as ambient temperature and weather. Battery runtime is also influenced by e.g. the battery’s age and health status, the battery’s usage history and remaining capacity, and how the equipment is operated and the power level of the application. The battery runtimes shown are “up to” values based on internal testing of products in energy saving mode, including typical work, basic maintenance, and movement/climbing. These figures are guidelines only and may vary between tasks, settings, and environments, and are not guaranteed to be repeatable in real-world use.
