As the world’s first battery chainsaws with a clutch, the T542i XP® and 542i XP® are making headlines. Green Industry Pros has given the T542i XP® a 2024 Editor’s Choice Award, saying “the ability to start these saws with the push of a button means climbing arborists can maximize efficiency while on-the-job.” While OPE+ awarded the 542i XP® a Twenty for 2024 New Product Award, saying it “provides the familiar feel of a gas-powered engine, but with a fraction of the noise and no fumes.”
Coming in clutch
Experience high power and kick-start energy at the start of every cut with the centrifugal clutch. Delivering a throttle response similar to traditional gas-powered models, you'll feel the clutch engage, initiating a burst of energy that results in higher productivity and cutting capabilities.

Restart with a head start
Stay in the cut longer with the convenient restart function. When the chainsaw comes to a stop while cutting in a tree or log, you can restart without having to release your fingers from the trigger or change the position of your hands – for a smoother, more efficient workday.

Get more done – with ease
With outstanding cutting capacity, you can cut more and stay working longer. In fact, based on internal testing, the T542i XP® delivers up to 10% more cuts than our T540i XP® – for a more productive and rewarding workday.
