Minimise power equipment maintenance with battery tools

• Reduced power equipment maintenance: “Battery products need much less maintenance and service”, says David Holmstedt, Global Product Specialist at Husqvarna. “The fact that there are fewer moving parts, when compared to a combustion engine, reduces the risks of mechanical failure.”
• Reliable performance: "The battery machines’ brushless motor is, in fact, durable and reliable enough for it to be labelled as 'virtually maintenance-free'," adds Holmstedt. The operational reliability is therefore greatly improved, and the risk of unexpected downtime is reduced.
• Reduced daily maintenance: “Apart from the electric motor, there are usually no more than three or four components that can malfunction”, says Johan Svennung, Global Product Specialist at Husqvarna. “This means that you can work uninterrupted for longer periods of time, feeling secure in the knowledge that the machine will keep running, without issues.”

So, are battery machines “maintenance-free” for real? Yes and no. Using Husqvarna BLi-X 36V battery system products, mean that you eliminate the need of daily maintenance such as cleaning the cooling fins of the cylinder, and the filters or spark plugs, but they still require some care. However, the service needs are reduced, and the responsibility transferred – from the operator to the service crew.
