Winter Versatility - The Husqvarna P525D
When winter hits hard, it’s time to strike back. The Husqvarna P525D front mower is the ultimate tool for those tough, cold mornings clearing public pathways. With a range of all year round attachments at its disposal the P525D combats the tough winter conditions. The P525D is the most powerful and versatile, diesel powered compact commercial front mower from Husqvarna. A high performance Combi deck is stamped from a single piece of 4.5mm steel plate giving excellent strength and durability. This combined with efficient mulching and rear discharge gives you exceptional results. Built with a heavy-duty reinforced steel ladder durable frame, the P525D will last you through many seasons of commercial use. Comfort controls and seating mean you can work longer hours comfortably and hydraulic lift aids work rate further making changing your attachments simple.
Every commercial user knows that when it comes to working on the ground, manoeuvrability is key. Equally capable in both complex and narrow environments as well as in the largest sized areas, the P525D boasts All Wheel Drive and a unique articulated power steering system with a Dog Bone pivot. This transfers weight to the inside front wheel when performing tight turns for added traction and increased stability, especially beneficial when operating on gradual banks and slopes. The steering system allows the rear wheels to swing in underneath the machine giving superior manoeuvrability with a minimum un-cut turning radius at full lock.
The P525D snow blade attachment makes light work of the winter weather. The rugged steel blade with reversible skid plates and hydraulic angle adjustment can be attached onto your machine to plough through the winter snow. Similarly available is the snow thrower attachment. A highly efficient and heavy-duty two-stage machine with five steps of height adjustment built for distributing snow from the ground, to your desired destination. Comfortable conditions are essential when working in terrible weather. The optional Husqvarna Cabin can be attached to your machine as a more comfortable alternative. Vision and weather protection are also increased during working hours thanks to the Cabin’s protective front window making the working experience much more enjoyable.
Further attachable options include the Utility Bucket and Rotating Broom. The option of attaching a hydraulic adjustable rotating broom means you can sweep leaves, or tackle snow and gravel. The broom attachment is shaft driven with bevel gear and chain drive as well as two rear solid wheels for support. The utility bucket is welded in high-tensile steel for maximum durability and comes equipped with hydraulic adjustment of angling and emptying meaning easy disposal of debris. Being a heavy duty attachment the utility bucket is well equipped for the commercial challenge and perfect for moving large quantities of snow or distributing rock salt.
Built with a 1123cc 18.7kW Kubota engine, the P525D is available with a 132cm or a 155cm Combi deck. An All Wheel Drive transmission gives increased traction and stability along with high speed road transit between job sites. All year round attachments mean this machine is built for versatility with perfect results.
