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.

Key features

High cutting capacity
New engine design offers plenty of grunt for peak performance even during longer cuts. The high cutting capacity makes the saw ideal for productive operation – even when using a longer guide bar.

Heated handles and carburetor keep you productive
Keeps your hands warm for improved comfort and productivity. Maintaining manoeuvrability and control also increases safety. The electrical carburetor heating ensures reliable starting and operation in cold conditions.

Slimmed-down design
Low, slender saw body makes the chainsaw easy and convenient to handle in any situation.

X-Torq® engine
The X-Torq® engine design increases torque over a wider rpm range providing maximum cutting power.

Always optimized
Thanks to AutoTune 3.0, the engine settings are always optimized for maximum startability and performance in all conditions, keeping you going no matter the challenges. No need for manual carburetor adjustment.

Optimized saw body
No protruding parts, a smooth underside, rounded starter cover and well-protected controls all make the saw easy to handle.

Air Injection filters 98% of incoming dust
Give you full working days with maintained performance and less wear on the engine.

Felling sight to last a lifetime
Perfect sight is critical when felling – so we made one that will outlast the chainsaw itself.

Magnetic filter protects the engine
A magnetic filter inside the fuel hose effectively prevents metal particles from reaching the carburetor and engine, which minimizes wear and interruptions.

Low vibrations
Husqvarna’s anti vibration system efficiently separates your hands from the vibrations generated by the engine and the cutting equipment. This is to protect your body but also to reduce the fatigue in your arms and hands and in the end of the day contribute to make your workday more productive.

Quick and easy adjustment
Chain tension should be checked regularily during use. The saw comes with a side-mounted chain tensioner that makes adjustment quick and easy.

Flip up tank caps
Easy to open and secure firmly, even when wearing thick winter gloves.

Retained starter screws
The retaining function prevents losing the screws holding the starter.

Made for professional use
Engineered for professional use, offering power, performance and durability for demanding tasks.
