Source: husqvarna.com (verified 2026-07-10) · corroborated by daveslawnmower.com. The Husqvarna US product page for the 440 (model 970 61 23-38, SKU 970612338) confirms the exact model: an X-TORQ 40.9 cm3 gas engine, standard 18 in bar ("Bar length (inch) 18 in"), powerhead weight 9.78 lbs ("Weight (excl. cutting equipment) 9.78 lbs"), LowVib anti-vibration dampeners, and a fixed-flow automatic chain oiler ("Oil pump type: Fixed flow", "No Oil at Idle"). That page's FAQ explicitly states the standard 440 uses a scrench while only the 440e adds tool-less chain tensioning, so tool_less_chain_tensioning is set false (not null). The $399.99 US price and the 40.9 cm3 / 18 in / 9.78 lbs figures are independently corroborated on the Dave's Lawnmower Repair dealer listing for the identical SKU (970612338 / 970 61 23-38); Husqvarna US publishes no fixed MSRP, so priceUsd reflects widely-listed US dealer retail. releaseDate is null as no year is stated on any fetched page.
