Beautiful, well-groomed lawns have become a familiar part of a suburban area or cottage. Evenly cut grass surrounds flower beds and trees, benches in parks and fountains – it is difficult to imagine modern landscape design without a lawn. But the grass does not grow perfectly evenly; regular maintenance is necessary for the coating, or rather, a haircut.
Trimmers and lawn mowers have been created for mowing lawns. If the scythe is a more powerful and complex tool designed for cutting weeds and shrubs, then the trimmer can only trim soft lawn grass.
About the features of this tool, about the Swedish model of Husqvarna and about the varieties of nozzles for it – in this article.
What is special
Husqvarna is easy to work with – the design of this tool is so well thought out that the process of mowing the lawn is simply a pleasure.
In Sweden, Husqvarna has been known for over a hundred years, one of its activities is the production of lawn mowers and trimmers.
Swedish-made tools are considered one of the most reliable – there is practically nothing to break in the trimmer. Therefore, devices very rarely end up in repair shops, if something goes wrong, then most likely one of the consumables (candle, fishing line, knife, fuel filter).
It is quite possible to replace the consumable on your own, the cost of parts is quite affordable.
Husqvarna trimmers fall into several categories. Firstly, it can be household or professional appliances. For work on a small suburban area or country yard is enough household tool – They have a lower power, respectively, are cheaper. Secondly, for large-scale work – mowing vast lawns – it is better to purchase a more expensive, but very powerful professional trimmer.
Husqvarna trimmer classification

So, they distinguish:
Electrical devices
Work from the network. Such devices have many advantages, including: quiet operation of the motor, lack of exhaust gases, low weight, sufficient performance. The only drawback of electric trimmers can be called a power cord. An energized cable becomes a dangerous companion for the tool – any careless movement can damage the wire. Another nuance is the dependence on the power supply. The trimmer will not be able to work remotely from home.
Battery trimmer
These tools are more manoeuvrable – they are not tied to outlets or power carriers. The cost of a battery-powered device is significantly higher than a conventional electric one. But the Husqvarna company produces good lithium-ion batteries, the charge of a pair of such batteries is enough for a whole day of continuous work with the trimmer. To recharge the battery, you need a special charger and at least 35 minutes of time.

The power of the device with an internal combustion engine often exceeds 1 kW, a longer and thicker fishing line is installed on it, which allows you to cut coarse grass, weeds and even shrubs and tree branches up to 15 mm thick.
