1152353-95, 570 EPA III, 576 XP EPA III specifications

The Husqvarna 576 XP EPA III and 570 EPA III chainsaws exemplify innovation in outdoor power equipment, designed for the demanding user who requires high performance and reliability. These models are ideal for professional loggers and landowners alike, combining power, efficiency, and advanced technology.

One of the standout features of the Husqvarna 576 XP EPA III is its powerful 72.2cc engine, which delivers exceptional cutting performance while maintaining low fuel consumption. This model incorporates the X-Torq technology, which reduces fuel consumption by up to 20% and decreases harmful exhaust emissions by up to 75%. This makes the 576 XP EPA III not only high-performing but also environmentally friendly, meeting stringent EPA emission requirements.

The 570 EPA III, slightly smaller at 65.1cc, still boasts impressive power and torque, making it suitable for a variety of cutting tasks. This model is also equipped with the X-Torq technology, offering fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. It’s tailored for users who need a reliable chainsaw for medium to heavy-duty jobs, providing both power and ease of use.

Both models feature an Air Injection system that uses centrifugal force to remove larger dust and debris particles before they reach the air filter. This prolongs the life of the engine and reduces maintenance, enabling users to focus on the job at hand rather than frequent servicing.

Additionally, the Husqvarna 576 XP EPA III includes Smart Start technology, which ensures quick and effortless starting. The fuel pump and choke are designed to work in harmony, making it easier to start the saw with minimal effort.

Both chainsaws are designed with an ergonomic handle that provides excellent grip and comfort, reducing fatigue during extended use. The LowVib technology minimizes vibrations, further enhancing user comfort and control.

In terms of safety, both models are equipped with a chain brake that quickly stops the chain in the event of a kickback, protecting the user.

Overall, the Husqvarna 576 XP EPA III and 570 EPA III chainsaws are high-performance tools that combine advanced technology with user-friendly design, making them suitable for professionals and enthusiasts alike who demand efficiency and reliability in every cut.
