Walk-behind power trowel CT 48

Product description
The Husqvarna CT 48 is a walk-behind power trowel with a 1,220 mm (48") troweling diameter, designed for finishing medium to large concrete areas. The unit is dynamically balanced for consistent control across a wide speed range. Safety systems include a transmission brake, electronic safety switch and engine speed sensor to provide triple protection: the engine will shut off in an emergency and the handle will stop within three-quarters of a turn; the machine also only starts with the throttle lever at zero to prevent accidental handle rotation on start-up.

Key features / Benefits

• Precise control and low operator effort due to dynamic balancing and optimized ergonomics
• Multiple engine options to match site requirements and operator preference
• Variable speeds for floating and burnishing; extended range with CVT-clutch variants
• Adjustable blade pitch up to 30° for optimized concrete burnishing
