Professional, Cordless Mulching Mower
The Husqvarna LB 553iV is a robust, cordless battery-powered lawnmower specifically engineered for professional users who demand reliability, quiet operation, and low running costs. Its full-sized 53 cm (approx. 21″) cutting deck makes it an ideal solution for maintaining mid-sized to larger commercial or residential areas. It also serves perfectly as a complementary trimming tool to work alongside ride-on or robotic mowers.
Advanced Performance and Durability
Built with commercial-grade components, the LB 553iV features a cast aluminium chassis and aluminium rims, ensuring a long service life under demanding use. Its intuitive keypad makes it extremely easy to start and operate. Performance is enhanced with features like PowerBoost, which automatically increases blade speed in tough, high grass, and the power-conserving savE™ mode, which maximises runtime for lighter tasks. Active cooling ensures consistent performance during long work periods. The mower’s IPX4 weatherproof rating means it can be operated reliably in all weather conditions.
User-Focused and Efficient Design
The self-propelled, variable-speed front-wheel drive makes manoeuvring the mower effortless. Operator comfort is prioritised with an easily adjustable, side-adjustable handlebar with a soft grip, allowing for an optimal working position. For maximum productivity, the mower is equipped with dual battery slots for integral BLi batteries, and it is also compatible with Husqvarna’s backpack battery system for even longer runtime. The mower’s dedicated BioClip® (mulching) function cuts the grass into fine particles that quickly decompose and return to the lawn as a natural fertiliser.
Please note: This is a tool-only unit. The battery and charger are sold separately. This mower is part of the flexible Husqvarna BLi-X 36V battery system.

The Husqvarna LB 553iV is designed specifically for professional landscapers, grounds maintenance teams, and discerning domestic users with medium to large-sized lawns. Its robust build, quiet battery operation, and low running costs make it ideal for frequent, demanding use, especially in noise-sensitive areas.
What battery and charger are required for this mower?
This mower is sold as a ‘tool-only’ unit, meaning the battery and charger must be purchased separately. It is compatible with Husqvarna’s professional BLi 36V battery system. For extended use, it features dual battery slots and can also be connected to a Husqvarna backpack battery.
What does BioClip® mean?
BioClip® is Husqvarna’s terminology for mulching. The LB 553iV is a dedicated mulching mower, meaning it finely chops the grass clippings and returns them to the lawn surface. These clippings act as a natural, nutrient-rich fertiliser, promoting a healthier lawn. This model does not have a grass collection bag.
Is this lawnmower suitable for use in the rain?
Yes, the LB 553iV has an IPX4 weatherproof rating. This certifies that it is resistant to water splashes from any direction, making it suitable for use in all weather conditions and providing greater flexibility for professional users who cannot afford downtime.
How wide is the cutting deck?
The Husqvarna LB 553iV features a wide and efficient 53 cm (approximately 21-inch) cutting deck. This generous width allows you to cover larger areas more quickly, improving productivity for professional applications.
