The Husqvarna 450S is a reinforced, light chainsaw from the 400 series designed for felling, limbing and cutting firewood. It pairs a 2.4 kW X‑Torq® engine and a 50.2 cm³ displacement with user‑friendly features such as SmartStart, Air Injection and a captured bar nut to make starting, running and maintenance straightforward on site.

Reliable, fuel‑efficient power

The X‑Torq® engine delivers the 2.4 kW output needed for common forestry tasks while reducing fuel consumption and emissions compared with older two‑stroke designs.

Easier starting and restart

SmartStart, air purge and the auto return stop switch reduce effort at the starter and make subsequent starts quicker and more predictable.

Lower maintenance time

Quick‑release air filter, snap‑lock cylinder cover and Air Injection centrifugal cleaning minimise time spent on routine cleaning and filter servicing.

FAQs

Will this fit my machine?

Fitment can vary by model and deck size. Send us your mower model (and deck size if applicable) and we’ll confirm compatibility before you order.

Do I need any extra brackets or fitting kits?

Some accessories require a mounting kit or specific brackets depending on your machine. If you’re unsure, ask us and we’ll advise the correct setup.

Can you fit it for me?

Yes — if you’d like installation, let us know when ordering and we can arrange fitting (collection, workshop fit, or on-site depending on the product).

What bar lengths can I fit to the 450S?

The saw supports bars from 33 cm to 50 cm (recommended). It ships with a 45 cm (18 in) bar installed. Always check compatibility of chain pitch and sprocket when changing bar length.
