The Husqvarna 540i XP is a professional-grade, battery-powered chainsaw designed for tree care, landscaping, and general forestry applications. Its rear-handle configuration makes it suitable for ground-based cutting tasks, including pruning, limbing, and cutting small to medium-sized trees.

Powered by a brushless electric motor, the 540i XP delivers cutting performance comparable to a professional 40cc gasoline chainsaw when equipped with an appropriate battery. Its battery-powered design eliminates the need for gasoline mixing and reduces routine engine maintenance.

The chainsaw features a maximum chain speed of approximately 79 feet per second, supporting efficient cutting through branches and logs. Its lightweight construction and ergonomic design make it suitable for professional users who regularly perform tree maintenance.

The 540i XP also includes integrated Bluetooth connectivity for equipment monitoring and maintenance tracking through compatible Husqvarna applications.

Available with 14-inch and 16-inch guide bars, this chainsaw supports Husqvarna’s professional battery system. Battery and charger inclusion depends on the specific product configuration.
