Ergonomics.Designed with the user in mind, our chainsaws boast superior ergonomic features, such as our Low Vib® system and a slimline design for enhanced operator comfort and control.

Air Injection™.Air Injection™ filtration system uses centrifugal force to separate dust and debris from the intake air before it reaches the air filter. This results in improved efficiency, extended service intervals and increased engine life.

Environmental Care.Husqvarna is leading the way by producing low emission engine technology, such as our X-Torq® engine, which reduces emissions by up to 75% and reduces fuel consumption by up to 20%.

Safety.All our chainsaws feature inertia activated chain brakes. Selected models come with Husqvarna’s exclusive TrioBrake™ protection system, which is triggered by either inertia, the left hand or the right hand for extra protection.

Durability.Husqvarna’s three piece crankshaft, forged in two halves then connected with the crank pin, is designed to provide extreme durability and a long service life.

If you’re looking for ease of use, the best performance and the best results, without compromising on power, efficiency and durability - Husqvarna can put the best solution in your hands. When we develop a chainsaw, we start by listening to our customer’s to ensure we deliver a range that satisfies the

most demanding of needs. From high-end power chainsaws, to smaller lightweight models, every Husqvarna chainsaw delivers - offering real benefits to your working environment, productivity and physical well-being - whether you’re a professional user or a home handyman.

FREQuENTLy ASKED QuESTIONS

16

Here are some Frequently Asked questions when purchasing a chainsaw.

Why should I choose a Husqvarna chainsaw?There are two main reasons: Quality and service. Husqvarna has manufactured chainsaws for commercial use since 1959 and is one of the world’s leading chainsaw manufacturers. Obviously this also benefits you when you buy a chainsaw for use around the home. Our products are sold only at qualified dealers by knowledgeable staff, who can help you select the right machine.

How do I learn to use a chainsaw properly?The fundamentals of cutting techniques, safety and maintenance can be studied in the manual of your Husqvarna chainsaw and in various instruction books or films, like the ones offered by Husqvarna. Practical competence requires practice, and you might consider taking a course.

Can I use any chain oil?Yes, provided it’s a saw chain oil of good quality, preferably biodegradable. Never use waste oil. To maximise the life of the saw bar and chain we recommend our own vegetable-based saw chain oil, optimised for Husqvarna’s chainsaws.

I have heard about TrioBrake™. What is that?TrioBrake™ is a unique system developed by Husqvarna to increase the safety of our chainsaws. With TrioBrake™, in the event of a kickback the chain brake can be activated in three ways: by inertia and by the user’s right or left hand. TrioBrake™ also enhances safer operation of the machine in a more ergonomic fashion, with less strain on the body.

For more information, visit our website. You’ll find comparison charts, videos, web pages for our full range of chainsaws, protective clothing as well as our chainsaw accessories. There’s also additional advice to help you decide which machine is right for the job you have in mind. www.husqvarna.com

FREQuENTLy ASKED QuESTIONS

How do I choose the right chainsaw?You should first consider how often you will use the saw and what you will use it for. For instance, if you occasionally cut firewood and fell a few trees around your home, you may prefer a domestic saw like the Husqvarna 240 e, or an all-round chainsaw like the Husqvarna 435 e.

What protective equipment do I need to operate a chainsaw?You should never operate a chainsaw without protective trousers with chainsaw protection, a helmet with visor and hearing protection, boots with chainsaw protection and gloves. You should also carry a first aid kit and preferably a mobile phone.

When should I file the chain? Can I do it myself?A sharp chain chews through the wood effortlessly, producing coarse sawdust. A dull chain produces fine wood dust. A rule of thumb is to file the chain each time you refuel the chainsaw. You can do it yourself and Husqvarna can provide the right filing kit and a useful chainsaw manual with a step-by-step filing guide to help you get the job done right.

What type of fuel should I use in a Husqvarna chainsaw?Husqvarna chainsaws should always be run on a mixture of petrol and good-quality two-stroke oil. We recommend you use Husqvarna’s two-stroke oil, which is optimised for Husqvarna’s engines.

Features GlossaryAdjustable oil pumpAn adjustable oil pump provides the bar and chain with the right amount of lubrication for every task.

Air Injection™


Air PurgeAir purge designed for easy starting.

AutoTune™

Ensures optimal engine performance with no carburettor adjustments. It compensates for different fuels, altitudes, humidity, temperature and dirty air filter.

Combined choke/stop controlCombined choke/stop control allows for easier starting and reduces the risk of engine flooding.

Forged three-piece crankshaftEnsures maximum durability to withstand the toughest applications.

Inertia-activated chain brakeIf a kickback occurs and the tip of the bar is forced upwards, the inertia of sudden movement will activate the chain brake instantly.
