Estimated runtimes for Tough grass cutting with Husqvarna 320iL Weed Eater® (tool only).

Runtimes for the backpack battery are not shown by default. To view them, please select the checkbox above.

Battery runtime on a single charge depends on several factors such as battery capacity, which kind of machine it powers, the type of application, and external conditions such as ambient temperature and weather. Battery runtime is also influenced by e.g. the battery’s age and health status, the battery’s usage history and remaining capacity, and how the equipment is operated and the power level of the application. The battery runtimes shown are “up to” values based on internal testing of products in energy saving mode, including typical work, basic maintenance, and movement/climbing. These figures are guidelines only and may vary between tasks, settings, and environments, and are not guaranteed to be repeatable in real-world use.

Frequently asked questions

Which batteries are compatible with the Husqvarna 320iL string trimmer?

The Husqvarna 320iL string trimmer is fully compatible with any Husqvarna 40V lithium-ion battery. Because this model is sold as a "tool only," you can seamlessly use an existing 40V battery from other Husqvarna MAX Battery Series tools or purchase the battery and charger separately.

How does the dual-direction cutting head work on the 320iL?

The exclusive dual-direction cutting feature allows you to change the rotation direction of the trimmer head with the push of a single button. This provides complete control over where grass clippings are discharged, making it easy to keep debris off sidewalks, driveways, and delicate garden beds.

What is the benefit of the brushless motor in the 320iL trimmer?

The 320iL is equipped with a highly efficient brushless (BLDC) motor that provides increased durability and longevity compared to standard brushed motors. This design ensures consistent, reliable power for your lawn maintenance without the mechanical wear and tear of traditional motors.

How do I replace the trimmer line on the 320iL?

Replacing the line is quick and simple using the RapidReplace™ trimmer head. You simply align the internal arrows, feed the trimmer line through the eyelets, and twist the bump knob to wind the line—with no need to take the trimmer head apart.

Is the 320iL battery trimmer powerful enough for thick or tall grass?

Yes. The 320iL features a dedicated Boost Mode that delivers 20% more power on demand specifically for tackling thick weeds and tall grass. Its premium cutting performance earned it the Popular Mechanics Yard & Garden Award for "Best Tall-Grass String Trimmer.

How much does the Husqvarna 320iL weigh?

The 320iL weighs just 7.41 pounds (excluding the battery). This highly maneuverable design makes it 25% lighter than comparable models, ensuring a faster cutting speed and significantly reducing user fatigue during extended yard work.

Does the 320iL trimmer require any gas or oil maintenance?

No. As part of the MAX Battery Series, the 320iL is fully battery-powered. It requires no gas, no oil mixing, and produces zero carbon emissions during use, offering a clean, low-maintenance alternative to traditional gas-powered trimmers.

What are the advantages of LowVib® technology on this trimmer?

Husqvarna’s LowVib® technology is designed to significantly reduce the vibrations felt in the handles (maintaining an equivalent vibration level of 5 m/s²). This ergonomic focus allows you to work more smoothly and comfortably, minimizing stress on your hands and arms.

Does the 320iL feature cooling for the battery system?

Yes, the 320iL is equipped with an Active Cooling System. This integrated airflow feature provides consistent power output and helps extend the battery's overall lifespan by efficiently dissipating heat during heavy or prolonged trimming sessions.

What is the cutting width of the 320iL Weed Eater?

The 320iL features a 16-inch cutting width. This provides an optimal balance of precise edging capabilities and efficient clearing power for medium to large residential properties.
