Husqvarna debuts 590BTS and 590BFS backpack blowers

Husqvarna has introduced the Husqvarna 590BTS and 590BFS backpack blowers for professional use.

The blowers generate 56 Newtons of blow force and deliver 1245 CFM of air volume. The 590BTS and 590BFS are powered by a 79.4 cc X-TORQ engine. They also feature an AutoTune controlled carburetor to adjust air/fuel mixture automatically, optimizing performance across varying conditions. The backpack blowers also have a new, simplified starting procedure with an easy "start" button that eliminates the need for a manual choke.

The Husqvarna 590BTS and 590BFS also include features like a padded harness with a waist belt, a ventilated back pad and LowVib technology to reduce operator fatigue. The top-mounted adjustable right handle also caters to users of all sizes, while load lifter straps ensure a tailored fit.

Additional conveniences include a cruise control feature, a commercial-grade 3-stage air filter and a large fuel tank for extended runtimes between fill-ups. To accommodate user preference, the 590BTS features a tube-mounted throttle, while the 590BFS comes with a frame-mounted throttle.

"We're proud to offer the 590BTS and 590BFS as the most powerful backpack blowers on the market," says Andreas Rangert, president of Husqvarna Forest & Garden, North America. "These blowers are built to make tough jobs easier, faster, and more comfortable for professionals everywhere."
