INNOVATIONS
The blowers feature an AutoTune-controlled carburetor to adjust air / fuel mixture automatically to optimize performance. The blowers also have a new simplified starting procedure with an easy“ start” button that eliminates the need for a manual choke. Simply press the button, purge the engine and pull to start.
To ensure comfort and support for professionals, the Husqvarna 590BTS and 590BFS include benefits such as an ergonomic padded harness with a waist belt, a ventilated back pad and LowVib technology to reduce operator fatigue. The top-mounted adjustable right handle also caters to users of all sizes, while load lifter straps ensure a tailored fit. Additional conveniences include a cruise control feature, a commercial-grade 3-stage air filter and the industry’ s largest fuel tank for extended runtimes between fill-ups. To accommodate user preference, the 590BTS features a tube-mounted throttle, while the 590BFS comes with a frame-mounted throttle.
Available now, the blowers retail for $ 890.
Exmark updates Lazer Z S-series for 2025
Exmark redesigned its Lazer Z S-Series commercial zero-turn riding mower for 2025. The updated S-Series mowers present options for larger cutting decks and more powerful engines than the Lazer Z E-Series. Cutting deck options include 52-, 60- or 72-inch UltraCut Series 4 sidedischarge, or 60- or 72-inch UltraCut rear-discharge decks.
Buyers can choose from carbureted Kawasaki or EFI Kohler V-Twin commercial engines. On-board diagnostics give the operator clear visibility of vital functions, including an electronic fuel gauge, battery voltage warning, hour meter and OPC safety switch monitoring. A 12-gallon single fuel tank provides extended runtime between fill-ups.
The new Lazer Z S-Series seating system raises the bar for operator comfort with three inches of suspension travel, and an elastomeric stretch fabric base. Combined with a wider, more contoured seat profile, the new seating system effectively isolates the operator from bumps and vibration.
