XT7 Hardened Teeth: The blade is equipped with Bahco's signature XT7 tooth profile, which is scientifically optimised to provide a rapid, smooth cut in both seasoned and green wood, minimising resistance.
-

-
Ergonomic Rubberised Grip: Designed for comfort and control, the handle features a rubberised surface that provides a secure, non-slip grip, allowing for precise handling even in wet or demanding conditions.
-
Tough and Sturdy: Despite its lightweight profile, the blade is constructed to be exceptionally sturdy, offering the durability required for intensive, regular use in professional landscaping.
-
Replaceable Blade: To extend the life of your investment, the 396-HP is designed with a replaceable blade, allowing you to easily maintain peak cutting performance for years to come.

Retail Pro Tip: To optimise your customer service, explain the benefit of the XT7 tooth pattern. Many customers often struggle with standard saws 'binding' in green wood; informing them that this specific tooth geometry is designed to clear debris and reduce friction will help them understand why this model is the preferred choice for both professional and domestic use.
Oversized Item Delivery Options
Since oversized items require special handling, we may need to provide a custom freight quote for your order and will contact you with an updated shipping rate.
Available options include:
✔ Delivery to your closest depot for pickup - default method
✔ Direct delivery - requires forklift on site
✔ Direct delivery with tailgate lift truck (extra fees apply)
✔ Forklift loading at our warehouse (no extra charge if you arrange your own freight)
✔ Direct truck delivery (available in Victoria)
Important Notes:
- Shipping costs vary by location and method
- Because of the forklift requirement, delivery to the nearest depot is the default option and will be the method used unless you contact us to request otherwise.
- Bulky and oversized items cannot be delivered to a PO Box - please provide a physical street address for delivery.
Business Delivery:
- Business delivery is available for commercial customers only
- If you select business delivery and your products are bulky, it is your responsibility to ensure you have appropriate equipment (including forklifts) to unload products from the delivery truck
- If you select business delivery and you are not a business, you risk your product not being delivered and may incur additional fees to retrieve your order
- Business delivery customers must provide a valid business address and contact information
- Additional fees may apply for failed delivery attempts due to lack of appropriate unloading equipment
Let us know your preference, and we'll arrange the best solution for you!
Important Note on Availability & Shipping
Our warehouse serves as our office and logistics centre rather than a retail showroom. Because we ship from multiple locations and manage high-turnover stock, not all items are available for immediate pickup.
Lead Times:
- In-Stock Items: Usually ready for dispatch the same day.
- Supplier-Dependent Items: Usually take 2–8 weeks to arrive, depending on supplier availability. Products from Adloheat may take 8–12 weeks to manufacture—they are made to order in Australia by a small business, and longer lead times reflect the care put into quality.
While we strive for fast delivery, some timelines are subject to supplier availability and are beyond our control. We appreciate your patience as we source the best quality gear for your project.
Biosecurity & Interstate Shipping Restrictions
Due to strict state biosecurity regulations, we are unable to ship some products to certain states and territories:
- Potting Mixes cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA), the Northern Territory (NT), or Tasmania (TAS).
- Seeds cannot be shipped to Western Australia (WA).
Orders placed for these items to restricted states will be cancelled and refunded. It is the customer's responsibility to ensure that the items being ordered can lawfully be delivered to their state or territory.
