Oregon expanded the 120V Professional Series suite of battery-powered landscaping equipment with the addition of a self-propelled 21-inch commercial walk-behind mower and a new handheld blower. Both tools promise performance in any weather and utilize the platform’s robust battery technology, says the company.

“Our new mower and handheld blower continue to round out our collection of professional-grade equipment, allowing our landscaping customers to leverage the Oregon 120V Professional Series’ quiet performance on even more jobs,” said Oregon Sr. Global Product Manager Paul Vanderwal.

The new BLH120VX handheld blower combines an air speed of 166 mph with volume of 530 CFM to boast a blowing force of 18.5N, all while maintaining a d 56 dB(A) bystander noise level.

“The handheld blower is perfect for the quick, grab-and-go jobs landscape maintenance professionals perform, with plenty of power and significant run-time,” Vanderwal said.

Oregon’s 21-inch self-propelled mower offers commercial durability with a 14-gauge high-lift steel deck and 2-speed heavy-duty transmission. The large-capacity 2.5-bushel rear bagging design also offers mulching capabilities and cutting heights from 1-inch to 4.5-inches in half-inch increments. This mower is ready for heavy use in all kinds of weather with the 120V Professional Series’ standard IP56 rating and a 2-year commercial warranty.

The new Oregon LMA 120VX is powered by a stout 4.4 HP peak power engine, developing 7.0 ft-lbs of peak torque that allow it to contend with comparable 197cc gas-fueled competitors. With Torque Boost technology that increases power when the mower senses heavier loads, the LMA120VX still maintains its low-noise profile, hitting a maximum bystander noise level of 61 dB(A) and dipping to 58 dB(A) with its battery-saving Stealth Mode.

All Oregon 120V Professional Series tools are fueled by Oregon’s interchangeable 120V battery platform. For handheld tools, the platform places the large capacity battery in a comfortable backpack-style carrier for reduced tool weight, better maneuverability and overall ergonomics for operators. The powerful 22N force backpack blower and the new 21-inch mower carry the battery on board. Available in two capacity levels, the BX975 is a 972 Watt hour power pack, while the lighter BX650 offers a robust 648 Watt hours.

You can see and demo the whole collection of Oregon’s 120V Professional Series equipment at GIE+EXPO in Louisville, Ky. from Oct. 16-18. Attendees are invited to visit Oregon’s indoor booth (#3182) and outdoor space to see for themselves what real power means for cordless outdoor power equipment.
