Professional-Grade Battery Mowing
The Husqvarna LC 551iV is a self-propelled, cordless lawnmower engineered specifically for professional users who demand reliability, low running costs, and quiet performance. Its robust construction features a heavy-duty 51cm aluminium cutting deck, commercial-grade powerhead, and high-level components throughout, ensuring it can withstand the rigours of daily commercial use. The rear-wheel drive and variable speed control provide excellent traction and allow the operator to adjust the pace to suit complex lawn layouts or difficult terrain.
Advanced Performance and Versatility
This mower offers exceptional versatility with three cutting methods: collection into the large 65-litre fabric bag, rear discharge, or mulching with the optional BioClip® kit. Husqvarna’s intelligent savE™ mode conserves power for maximum runtime, while the PowerBoost feature automatically increases blade speed when cutting through dense or high grass. Active cooling further enhances performance in tough conditions. Operation is straightforward thanks to an intuitive keypad, and the mower is IPX4 weatherproof rated for reliable use in all weather.
Smart Technology and Operator Comfort
Designed for long working hours, the LC 551iV features dual battery slots for Husqvarna’s integral BLi batteries, effectively doubling the runtime. For even longer, uninterrupted mowing, it is also compatible with a Husqvarna backpack battery. The ergonomic handlebar is easy to adjust and folds down for compact storage and transport. Furthermore, integration with the Husqvarna Connect app provides users with easy access to manuals, spare part recommendations, and useful data such as runtime and service needs, right from their smartphone.
Please note: This product is sold as the tool only. Battery and charger are not included.
