245 RX, 245R/RX specifications

The Husqvarna 245R/RX and 245 RX are robust and versatile handheld brushcutters, designed to cater to both professional landscapers and dedicated homeowners. Renowned for their efficiency and reliability, these models incorporate advanced engineering and innovative features that enhance performance and usability.

One of the standout features of the Husqvarna 245R/RX is its lightweight design, weighing approximately 11.5 kg. This makes it easy to handle and reduces operator fatigue during extended use. The ergonomic handle contributes to a comfortable grip and allows for precise maneuverability, making it suitable for tackling various landscaping tasks with ease. The adjustable harness further increases comfort and helps distribute the weight evenly across the body.

Equipped with a powerful 2-cycle engine, the 245R and 245 RX deliver impressive cutting power, ensuring that even the most challenging vegetation can be managed effectively. The engine technology includes advanced air injection, which effectively removes larger debris before it reaches the air filter. This ensures that the air filter stays cleaner for longer, reducing maintenance and extending the lifespan of the machine.

Another essential feature of these brushcutters is the Auto Return Stop Switch, enabling easy operation. It automatically resets to the ON position after each use, which simplifies starting for the next session. Additionally, the model comes with a well-balanced design, which further enhances control and precision while maneuvering around obstacles.

Both the 245R and 245 RX are equipped with a tap-and-go trimmer head, making it easy to release more line when needed without stopping the machine. This feature is particularly useful for maintaining a clean and tidy garden without interruptions. Furthermore, the cutting width is adjustable, allowing users to switch quickly between trimming and cutting thicker grass and brush.

The Husqvarna 245 RX version features additional enhancements tailored for more demanding applications. Its robust gearbox provides exceptional durability, while the increased fuel tank size ensures longer runtime, making it ideal for professionals who require sustained performance in extensive commercial environments.

In summary, the Husqvarna 245R/RX and 245 RX brushcutters combine lightweight design, advanced engine technology, and user-friendly features to deliver exceptional performance for both personal and professional landscaping tasks. Their reliability, ease of use, and versatility make them a top choice for anyone looking to maintain their outdoor spaces effectively.
