Oregon announces 120V Professional Series cordless equipment

Oregon’s new series is engineered with enough power for landscape crews. The company used input from commercial crews and industry veterans to come up with the cordless technology,

“Oregon has been serving lawn and landscape professionals for decades. We understand the need for cordless products that are powerful enough for heavy commercial work, but also enable crews to operate quietly and with more care for the environment,” said Josh Huffman, business segment director of outdoor power equipment for Oregon. “We’re confident that our new Oregon 120V Professional Series will help extend the work day, reduce down time and offer the professional grade reliability and durability needed to help our customers grow their businesses.”

The Oregon 120V Professional Series debuts with four pieces of equipment.

Available for the 2018 season will be:

• Oregon 120V Professional Series Backpack Blower
• Oregon 120V Professional Series String Trimmer
• Oregon 120V Professional Series Extended Hedge Trimmer
• Oregon 120V Professional Series Edger
• Oregon BX975 and BX650 batteries

All Professional Series tools are fueled by Oregon’s interchangeable 120V battery platform placing the battery in a backpack-style carrier for reduced weight, maneuverability and better ergonomics for operators. Available in two capacity levels, the BX975 is a 973 Watt hour power pack, while the lighter BX650 offers 648 Watt hours.

The Oregon 120V Professional Series will be available nationwide in 2018.
