About the HUSQVARNA 555FRM Petrol Brushcutter/Strimmer
Powerful Mulching Performance for Tough Conditions
The Husqvarna 555FRM Petrol Brushcutter is a powerful machine developed specifically for demanding mulching and vegetation clearance. Its robust performance makes it well suited to challenging areas where dense growth requires effective cutting and shredding.
Supplied with a shredder blade and Balance XT harness, the 555FRM provides the equipment required for demanding mulching applications. Its carefully considered design combines strong cutting capability with features developed to improve comfort, control and productivity.
Powerful and Efficient X-Torq® Engine
At the heart of the 555FRM is a powerful X-Torq® engine, designed to deliver excellent power and torque. Highly efficient combustion supports rapid acceleration while providing the performance required for tackling difficult vegetation.
The X-Torq® design also provides excellent fuel economy, helping operators make efficient use of fuel throughout demanding working sessions. This balance of performance and efficiency makes the brushcutter particularly suitable for intensive vegetation management.
Effective Mulching with the Shredder Blade
The included shredder blade allows tough vegetation to be cut and mulched effectively during clearance work. Shredding material helps reduce bulky vegetation, making demanding areas easier to manage during intensive maintenance.
A specially designed grass bevel gear provides high torque while maintaining an effective cutting angle. This keeps the cutting equipment correctly positioned relative to the ground for consistent performance.
Easier and Faster Starting
Husqvarna’s Smart Start® technology reduces resistance within the starter cord by up to 40%. This helps make starting quicker and requires less effort when preparing the machine for work.
An air purge system removes air from the carburettor and fuel system, further supporting straightforward starting. The auto-return stop switch automatically returns to the ON position after stopping, simplifying subsequent restarts.
Balanced Design for Improved Control
The fuel tank is positioned ahead of the engine to create an optimised centre of gravity. Improved balance helps operators control the brushcutter more effectively throughout demanding mulching and vegetation clearance applications.
An adjustable ergonomic handlebar allows the working position to be adapted for greater operator comfort. Angled handlebars and comfortable grips also support controlled sweeping movements across larger working areas.
Reduced Vibration for Greater Comfort
Husqvarna’s LowVib® anti-vibration system uses effective dampeners to reduce vibration reaching the operator’s hands and arms. This can improve comfort when completing longer or more demanding vegetation management tasks.
The supplied Balance XT harness further supports comfortable operation by helping distribute the machine’s weight across the operator. Combined with the balanced construction, this helps make prolonged professional work more manageable.
Practical Features for Productive Working
A transparent fuel tank allows operators to check remaining fuel quickly without opening the tank. This makes monitoring fuel levels easier when planning work across larger or more demanding areas.
The magnetic locking pin holder also simplifies changing suitable cutting equipment when different tasks require another setup. This practical feature helps reduce unnecessary delays when adapting the machine between applications.
Combining X-Torq® power, effective mulching capability and ergonomic handling, the Husqvarna 555FRM is built for challenging vegetation management. Its shredder blade, Balance XT harness and practical features create a capable solution for demanding mulching work.
