Husqvarna 555 Professional 24" Gas Chainsaw — 59.8cc X-Torq Engine, X-Cut Chain, AutoTune

Husqvarna 555 Professional is a high-capacity 24" gas chainsaw built for demanding cutting work, combining X-Cut chain, X-Torq engine, Air Injection, and AutoTune for reliable performance.

The Husqvarna 555 24 Inch Chainsaw is a pro-grade, gas-powered saw engineered for felling small to midsize trees, limbing, bucking, and cutting firewood and logs. It pairs a robust 59.8-cc X-Torq engine with Husqvarna’s X-Cut chain and a slim, ergonomic body to deliver sustained power and maneuverability. Built-in features such as Smart Start, side-mounted chain tensioning, Air Injection centrifugal cleaning, AutoTune carburetor tuning, and an anti-vibration system reduce downtime and operator fatigue so you can work longer with fewer interruptions.

How does the Husqvarna 555 make heavy cutting easier?

The 555 brings professional-level cutting capacity through a 4.16-HP X-Torq engine that sustains power at low RPM and improved cooling for longer life. The X-Cut chain and recommended 18–24" bar lengths increase cutting efficiency and throughput for larger logs and frequent jobs.

• 59.8 cc X-Torq engine delivers consistent torque for demanding tasks
• X-Cut chain designed for fast, clean cuts and reduced vibration
• Compatible with bar lengths from 18" to 24" for versatile cutting needs

What features reduce maintenance and start-up hassles?

Smart Start technology minimizes the effort required to start the engine, while Air Injection removes most dust and debris before it reaches the air filter, extending maintenance intervals. AutoTune automatically compensates for fuel quality, altitude, and temperature, helping to keep the engine running smoothly across changing conditions.

• Smart Start system for easier pull-starting with less force
• Air Injection centrifugal system filters out up to 98% of debris
• AutoTune carburetor optimizes engine settings without manual adjustments

How does the 555 prioritize operator comfort and safety?

Husqvarna designed the 555 with a slim saw body and an effective anti-vibration system to lower user fatigue during extended use. Safety components like the inertia-activated chain brake and low-kickback chain profile help reduce the risk of injury when working on dynamic cutting tasks.

• Anti-vibration system for reduced hand-arm fatigue and better control
• Inertia chain brake reduces kickback forces in emergency situations
• Side-mounted tensioner lets you adjust the chain quickly and safely

What fuel and service specifics should I know?

The 555 uses a 50:1 fuel mix with Husqvarna 2-stroke lubricant and has a compact oil tank suited to professional workflows. The magnesium crankcase and three-piece crankshaft enhance durability, and Husqvarna’s two-year professional warranty supports heavy-duty usage.

• Requires 50:1 gasoline to two-stroke oil mix; 0.32 L oil tank volume
• Durable magnesium crankcase and three-piece crankshaft construction
• Backed by a 2-year warranty for professional use

Who is this for: The Husqvarna 555 is intended for landscapers, arborists, professional contractors, and serious homeowners who need a robust, reliable gas chainsaw for frequent cutting tasks. If you regularly fell small to midsize trees, cut large volumes of firewood, or require a saw that balances power with service-saving features, the 555 delivers professional-grade performance and real-world durability.
