Quick and easy cutting
As any working professional can tell you, even the most demanding
tasks are easier with the right tool at hand. The 535i XP chainsaw
from Husqvarna is just such a tool.
Created to be simpler and safer to operate for maximum efficiency,
its light weight and superior cutting power is sure to appeal to the
professional saw-user. Operator safety was another key
consideration in its design.
A critical feature on modern chainsaws like the 535i XP is the inertia
chain brake. In the event of sudden or rapid movement of the
chainsaw, such as when kickback occurs, the brake will engage
automatically through the force of inertia.
Since kickback occurs suddenly and with great force most people
cannot react fast enough to activate the brake manually. The
chain brake will act much like a seatbelt – kicking in when you
need it most.
It also serves as a handguard to keep your spare hand safe from
being slapped and stabbed by tree branches while limbing,
bucking, and clearing.
The 535i XP is aimed at those who regularly work with wood –
including carpenters, contractors, tree care workers and farmers.

eliminating the messy and time-consuming refuelling process. An
electronically-controlled drive system with a simple keypad gets you
up and cutting more quickly.
Finishing in the job with a minimum of effort is something everyone
can appreciate. The 535i XP’s brushless motor provides a high and
consistent torque, making it 25% more efficient than a standard
brush motor.
As exemplified by the Husqvarna 535i XP, today’s chainsaws are
easier, safer and more efficient to use. It will quickly become an
essential part of your work-day.
The 535i XP retails for R6760 and is available from a countrywide
network of Husqvarna dealers. It comes with a two-year warranty.

has been a notable uptick in outdoor entertainment area revamps.
Local handmade furniture manufacturer, Woodbender, has
responded with quality outdoor solutions designed for easy living
and comfort.
Woodbender’s new outdoor furniture promises the solidity, strength
and long-lasting quality of solid wooden frames topped with easy

named Chalbi for the area where the wood originates and ticks all
the boxes:
• Sustainably sourced
• Naturally weather-proof

Strength and longevity are key to outdoor furniture. Known as
‘African Teak’, Iroko wood is tough, dense, durable, and resistant to

the furniture ages. All joined with stainless steel bolts, screws, and
brackets; or wood-to-wood interlocking joints to avoid glue lines

brand new if oiled every six months.
