The Husqvarna thread

[DSS]

I do really like the zenoah clones
Those things are like 60.00 shipped often
52/58/62cc
I've never had to work on one and many of my friends and neighbors bought them
For occasional use
I bet over 15 of those are around and 5 of those zenoah top handles which i haven't had to work on those either instead of 300.00+ for a stihl or especially the homeowner Husqvarnas
Which you can leave setting much because the fucking purge bulb lines always get fucked
Heavy pig bastard saws overpriced pieces of shit.
I've helped sell a lot of echo if guy's don't want Chinese any echo will last forever.

To my knowledge, Husqvarna has never made a top handle saw that wasn't a total piece of shit. At least the Stihls are good saws if you can afford them. I'd like to try a Chinese tophandle someday maybe

I would go with Echo.

or 353

or 353

Yes, a 353 is a hell of a good firewood saw, was my favorite till somebody stole it, and easy to make a 346 out of one

Husqvarna new chains,
C33, 325" 050 ga, chisel
C35, 325" 058 ga, chiesel
S35G, 325 058ga, semichisel guardian link
Me very much C35 man nowadays.

C35 is Scandinavian slang for butt stuff?

Jesus, that's nasty. Thers not a fucking thing there I would recommend. Those 5 series saws eat bearings, the rancher models are clamshell turds, those little 2 series models are more for trimming shrubs. No echo dealer anywhere handy?

Echos are a two hour ride, in another state.

Well fuck. I guess if I had to pick one of those huskies it would be maybe the 450 rancher. Not a fantastic saw but it should be dependable

 

[RandyMac]

I can order Echos, they are being quite reasonable with CS-590s @ $450

I wouldn't have one as a gift. Buy something online.

I love my muff modder cs590. Stays at my parents for those projects that just appear when I am there..

Want me to build you a 55 Husky? I am sure I have enough parts.... not sure how fast you need one.

That's certainly what I'd do.

FUCK those damned things. i still have not got the one on bench to run. this thing is just like those dime store poulans, every thing checks out fine but it wont run. Randy will wrap it around a small tree and say many bad words.

Randy, this ^^ i have been recommending the 590 to locals here. not because i thinks its a power house, its not. because when they bring it and beg me to fix it, at least its a mag case normal carb saw with no god damned condom on the side.
55 is as well. i have one here i should build for Robbie. its got a scored piston.

I have had a Echo trimmer and some saws for several years now and all they do is start and run every time.
