PRODUCT FEATURES:
Power: The Husqvarna 590BTS is a gas-powered blower with a maximum air volume rating of 1245 Cu Ft. per minute (Cfm) and an air speed of 216 miles per hour (Mph).
Handling: Like most backpack blowers, this model is technically heavier than a handheld. That being said, it can feel lighter and more comfortable because of the way it is carried, even when used over extended periods of time. Its throttle is located on the tube, which allows you to keep your left hand free.
Engine: Its X-Torq® engine boasts a displacement of 79.4cc. As you may or may not know, 2-stroke engines require a mixture of gasoline and oil in order to keep all the moving parts lubricated while fueling the engine's internal combustion. The fuel/oil ratio recommended by Husqvarna for the 590BTS is 50:1.
Speed Settings: There are times when you only need a little more power, while other times you will want a bit more precision when clearing leaves and debris. For this purpose, the 590BTS offers variable speed settings, adding you, the user, more control, and a cruise control mode, which will allow you to maintain it comfortably for as long as you wish.
Fuel Tank: with a tank that can hold 91.3 Fl-Oz, the 590BTS has a much higher fuel capacity than your typical gas backpack blower. In fact, it is the biggest tank you'll find in our selection of gas backpack blowers.
X-Torq®: The X-Torq® is Husqvarna's latest technology for two-stroke engines. It reduces fuel consumption by up to 20% and harmful exhaust emissions by up to 60% while increasing torque over a wider rpm range.
