What the specs work out to

Figures MowerFacts computes from Husqvarna’s own numbers — not published by the manufacturer.

Mowing time

  • ¼ acre6 min 4 min
  • ½ acre11 min 8 min
  • 1 acre22 min 15 min
  • 2 acres44 min 31 min
  • 5 acres1 h 50 min 1 h 17 min
  • 10 acres3 h 41 min 2 h 35 min

About 22 min per acre at 2.72 acres/hour, mowing at 7.0 mph. The second figure is at the published 10.0 mph top speed (3.88 acres/hour) — faster than anyone really mows. About 19.0 acres per tank.

Weight & hauling

  • Machine weight1,140 lb
  • + 6×12 trailer900 lb
  • Towed weight2,040 lb
  • single-axle 3,500 lbCarries it, 1,460 lb spare
  • tandem-axle 7,000 lbCarries it, 4,960 lb spare

Needs a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer and a vehicle rated to tow at least 2,040 lb.

Gate & trailer fit

  • 32 in gateToo wide
  • 36 in gateToo wide
  • 48 in gateToo wide

Needs at least 54 in of clearance (estimated).

Power & run time

  • Power per deck inch0.511 hp/in
  • Run time per tank~7.0 h

Mowing times assume 2.72 acres/hour: deck width x 7.0 mph at 80% efficiency, which allows for overlap, turns and trimming. 7.0 mph is 70% of the 10.0 mph top speed Husqvarna publishes - almost nobody mows flat out. The "at top speed" figure is the same sum at 10.0 mph, shown so you can see it.

Fit uses the deck width plus 6 in for the discharge chute, because Husqvarna doesn't publish an overall width — measure before buying if a gate is tight.

Towed weight adds a 900 lb allowance for a 6x12 open utility trailer to Husqvarna's published machine weight. Your trailer's own weight is on its VIN plate. Tongue weight, axle placement and your vehicle's tow rating are still yours to check — this is the load, not a loading plan.

Run time assumes a typical 1 gal/hour burn at working load; real consumption varies with engine, load and cut.

The Husqvarna V548 Stand-On Mower has a 48-inch (1219 mm) cutting deck with 3 blades and steel construction.

What engine is in the Husqvarna V548 Stand-On Mower?

The Husqvarna V548 Stand-On Mower weighs 1,140 lb (517.1 kg) as specified by Husqvarna.

What size trailer do I need for the Husqvarna V548 Stand-On Mower?

At 1,140 lb, the Husqvarna V548 Stand-On Mower on a typical 6x12 open utility trailer (about 900 lb empty) is roughly 2,040 lb of towed weight. That is within a single-axle 3,500 lb trailer, and your tow vehicle needs to be rated for at least 2,040 lb. Tongue weight, axle placement and your own trailer's empty weight still have to be checked — this is the arithmetic, not a loading plan.

How fast is the Husqvarna V548 Stand-On Mower?

Top ground speed is 10 mph. With its 48-inch deck that works out to about 3.88 acres per hour at 80% efficiency — allowing for overlap, turns and trimming.

About 15 min per acre, from its 48-inch deck at 10 mph and 80% efficiency — roughly 3.88 acres an hour, so five acres is about 1 h 17 min. Rough or obstacle-heavy ground takes longer; this is deck width times ground speed, not a timed test.
