Professional 60 cc petrol chainsaw built for felling, limbing and bucking in forestry. A high-rev X-Torq® engine delivers the power of a large saw in a slim, manoeuvrable body. AutoTune 3.0 and Simple Start Technology keep the engine optimised and easy to start, while heated handles and carburettor heating maintain comfort and reliability in cold conditions. Supplied with an 18″ SN S35G bar and chain.

High cutting capacity

The high-rev 60 cc X-Torq® engine provides strong torque across a wide rpm range so the saw handles long cuts and larger trees without losing performance, especially when fitted with longer bars.

Reliable start and optimised running

AutoTune 3.0 continually adjusts engine settings for consistent performance in varying conditions and Simple Start Technology makes pull-starting easier, removing the need for manual carburettor adjustments in normal use.

Comfort and cold-weather operation

Heated handles keep your hands warm and improve grip, while the electrical carburettor heating supports reliable starting and operation in low temperatures — useful for early-season or high-altitude work.
