HP35 specifications

The Homelite HP35 is a versatile and powerful chainsaw designed for both professional and residential use. Known for its reliability and efficiency, the HP35 has become a popular choice among landscaping professionals and homeowners alike.

One of the standout features of the Homelite HP35 is its powerful engine. The saw is equipped with a robust 35cc two-stroke engine, delivering impressive performance while maintaining a lightweight design. This power makes it suitable for a variety of cutting tasks, from pruning branches to felling small trees. The engine is designed for easy startup, thanks to its reliable primer bulb and choke system, minimizing frustration during use.

In addition to its powerful engine, the HP35 boasts an ergonomically designed handle that provides comfort even during extended use. The anti-vibration technology integrated into the design reduces fatigue, allowing users to work longer without discomfort. The front and rear handles feature non-slip grips, ensuring better control and safety, particularly when working in challenging conditions.

The Homelite HP35 features a 14-inch bar and chain, making it ideal for maneuvering in tight spaces while still offering the cutting capacity needed for larger limbs and logs.

This user-friendly feature is particularly beneficial for those who may not possess extensive chainsaw maintenance experience.

Another notable characteristic of the HP35 is its built-in safety features. The chainsaw comes equipped with a chain brake that engages automatically during kickback scenarios, helping to protect the user from injury. Additionally, the saw has a throttle interlock that prevents accidental acceleration, further enhancing safety during operation.

Fuel efficiency is another significant advantage of the Homelite HP35. The two-stroke engine is designed to maximize fuel usage, allowing for longer run times between refueling. This feature not only makes it more cost-effective for users but also reduces environmental impact due to lower emissions.

In summary, the Homelite HP35 is a reliable chainsaw that combines power, efficiency, and safety features, making it a favored choice among users looking for a robust tool for various cutting tasks.
