New Bahco Lopper Gives More Power To Your Elbow
Bahco's new PG-20 Small Bypass Lopper is specifically designed for gardeners who find big loppers too heavy or unwieldy to use in a small garden, but need something with a stronger cut than secateurs.
This makes the saw efficient and gives it a high cutting speed.
"The FS 4800 D is the most compact of our large floor saws and very easy to manoeuvre, easy to move and turn," says Michael Leroy.
Husqvarna FS 4800 D is available as front or rear pivot versions.
The front pivot version has an electrical tracking system that can be adjusted with a simple press of a button.
The rear pivot model transfers the centre of gravity backwards and when the handles are pressed down, it is easy to change the direction of the machine.
Both models have adjustable handles, which make them more ergonomic to use even during long working periods.
The sealed blade shaft is built with the new, patented, IntelliSeal-system which equips all the larger, floor saws from Husqvarna Construction Products.
"IntelliSeal is a major step forward! On many machines you have to grease the bearings every day or every week, something that is often forgotten.
The machine shuts down and you lose time.
With the IntelliSeal-system we guarantee that the machine can be run for 500 hours without maintenance of the blade shaft," says Michael Leroy.
As all other large saws, the FS 4800 D is equipped with an ?automatic? depth indicator that can set a depth with an auto-stop function.
This makes it simple to adjust the cutting depth.
Early 2007, the FS 4800 D will also be available with a three-speed gearbox.
With it, you can use different sizes of saw blades without having to change other parts as pulleys and belts.
