VentMaster Chain Saws

VentMaster Chain Saws  

The VentMaster line of chain saws feature the Husqvarna Pro 575XT Power Head, the most advanced power head available for fire service operation.

The New Husqvarna Pro 575XT is the most advanced power head available for fire service operation. With higher peak power and 20% more torque, the 575XT provides maximum cutting power over a longer range while improving productivity. The new One Step Starting, which combines the choke, throttle lock and stop mechanism all in one switch, eliminates flooding and allows fast convenient starting. The Raptor Carbide tipped chain was engineered to withstand the rigors of fire service operation. The Raptor cuts quicker and lasts longer than bullet chain or single raker carbide chain.

Tempest has combined the 575 X Torque and the Raptor Carbide Chain to provide you with a winning combination:  faster cuts, higher peak power, less maintenance and improved user productivity.
