Frequently asked questions

What is the correct fuel mix ratio for the Husqvarna 580BTS?

The Husqvarna 580BTS requires a 50:1 fuel-to-oil mixture. It is highly recommended to use premium non-ethanol gasoline (minimum 89 octane) mixed with a high-quality 2-stroke engine oil, like Husqvarna XP+ 2-stroke oil, to ensure optimal engine performance and longevity.

How many CFM and MPH does the Husqvarna 580BTS produce?

The 580BTS produces 1,000 CFM (cubic feet per minute) of maximum air flow at the nozzle and a maximum air speed of 220 MPH. Combined, these specifications generate a massive 47 Newtons of blow force, making it one of the most powerful backpack blowers in its class.

What is the difference between the Husqvarna 580BTS and 570BTS?

While both are commercial-grade backpack blowers, the 580BTS is larger and more powerful. The 580BTS features a 75.6 cc engine producing 1,000 CFM and 47 N of blow force. The 570BTS has a slightly smaller 65.6 cc engine producing 972 CFM and 37 N of blow force. The 580BTS is designed for the absolute heaviest debris and longest working hours.

Is the Husqvarna 580BTS designed for commercial or residential use?

The 580BTS is designed primarily for commercial landscaping professionals and groundskeepers. However, homeowners with large properties, heavily wooded lots, or significant amounts of wet debris frequently purchase this model for its time-saving power, comfortable harness, and durable X-TORQ engine.

How much does the Husqvarna 580BTS weigh?

The Husqvarna 580BTS weighs 26.8 pounds without fuel. Because of this weight, it comes standard with an ergonomic, load-reducing harness featuring a padded hip belt and wide shoulder straps to distribute the weight evenly for comfortable all-day use.

Can the Husqvarna 580BTS be used as a leaf vacuum?

No, the Husqvarna 580BTS is strictly a high-capacity backpack blower and does not have vacuuming or mulching capabilities. Husqvarna does not manufacture a vacuum kit for this specific model.

Does the 580BTS feature cruise control?

Yes, the Husqvarna 580BTS is equipped with a right-hand variable speed throttle that includes a cruise control option. This allows the operator to set a constant fan speed without holding the trigger, which significantly reduces hand and finger fatigue during extended clearing jobs.

What type of air filter does the Husqvarna 580BTS use?

This backpack blower utilizes a commercial-grade, 2-stage intake air filtration system. This advanced Air Injection design prevents dust and debris from entering the engine even in extremely dusty conditions, reducing downtime and extending the life of the machine.

Does the Husqvarna 580BTS have anti-vibration technology?

Yes, it is built with Husqvarna's LowVib technology. This system uses effective dampeners to absorb engine vibrations, sparing the user's arms and hands from fatigue and making it much more comfortable to operate during long shifts.

What is Ethanol Free Gas & Where to Find it Near Me

Ethanol fuel, a gas additive, is everywhere! Nowadays, the gas you pump from almost every gas station contains a blend of gasoline and ethanol. The percentage of ethanol blend is indicated by the E number. For example E10 means the gas mixture contains 90% gas and 10% ethanol. In automobiles, ethanol fuel won’t do much harm to your car's engine. However, when you're using gas with ethanol mixture in your outdoor power equipment, like lawn mowers, chainsaws, trimmers and leaf blowers, you run the risk of engine damage and incurring costly repairs. You should be using ethanol free gas in your small engine outdoor power equipment.
