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.

Ability to carry longer bars
The powerful engine in combination with the large bar mount, a sturdy crankcase and sufficient chain oiling provides an ability to carry longer bars.

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

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.

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

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.

Retained bar nuts
The retaining function prevents loosing the bar nuts.

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.

Side-mounted chain tensioner
Side-mounted chain tensioner makes chain 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.
