Hello Kelly, we have had a lot of requests on the serial numbers for Husqvarna saws. We are working on it and will get it done very soon. There is a lot that goes into it. 16 Husky’s is a nice stable of saws. We have 6 and obviously, that isn’t a lot in comparison. I’m curious what two Stihl saws do you have? We run those too when we get them. We generally flip’em for cash. Thanks for watching and take care. WST

Hi Alex - it's Big Rodders in Ireland. I enjoyed your lecture. Over here, there is a Husky professional range between Rancher and XP, which I prefer for all round performance. We don't have a 365 XP, the equivalent used to be the 70.7cc 372XP and now it's the 572XP. I have a 2010 365 65.1cc 20in bar. Engine size was increased to 70.7cc in 2011 but it is still called a 365 and it still has a good old fashioned carb. It is my go to saw, an incredible and reliable performer. I got a new 555 59.8cc with Autotune 16inch model in 2015. It was a very aggressive saw and gave me good service but then started to break my heart with erratic starting, for which I blamed the Autotune. The dealer has it now and says it's coil that's faulty so if that fixes it I shall forgive it. Time will tell. You must have a chainsaw licence here to enable a shop sell you a T handle saw, since they are perceived to be more dangerous.

Hi Alex - it's Big Rodders in Ireland again. After 4 months in the shop, I just got my 555 saw back and had a 2 hour heavy cutting session with it. It was indeed a faulty coil so I was wrong to blame the Autotune. The saw now works like new, the bark off it would wake the dead and with a 16 inch bar and a .325 semi chisel chain it is a lean mean cutting machine. I trust you are keeping well. TV reports here tell of massive rains in the US of A in the NE while in the SW the Hoover Dam is threatening to run out of water. It sure is a topsy turvy world right now.

Great information, in the past I owned a John Deere saw made by Echo I now have a 40cc Echo, I was also given a Shindawa by my translator when he came out to the island when he came with his crew to do some contract work for me, when I was stationed in Japan. That Shindawa would not die after 8 years using it every week never needed any work, expect regular care with good gas and oil and change the plug maybe 3 or 4 times. I just now ordered a 3120XP and it should be here in February. Never had a Stihl, had friends with Stihl and they loved them even when they were cussing them out because they where hard to start or had to buy expensive parts to repair them. Ron USCG MKC RET

Hi Ron! First, Thank you for your service. We appreciate those that protect our freedoms! Second, Merry Christmas to you and your family! Thank you for sharing your story.

That is a lot of saw my friend! It is going to do the job, I promise that. I can't say too much about, Stihl. I've seen all major brands have issues. That being said, I sold my soul to Husqvarna a long time ago and continue to fly the flag. I'm pretty much running a fleet of 20+ year old Husqvarna's and love every minute of it.

One thing worth mentioning is the 560 XP and the 562 XP. These saws have the same performance figures (3.5 kW) but the 562 is 200 grams heavier (6.3 kg vs 6.1 kg for the 560). However that "2" indicates that the 562 has the large bar mount, that can run 3/8 chains and bars. The 560 is the biggest Husqvarna saw with the small bar mount, and runs .325 chains and bars up to 20 inch (50 cm) long.
@DownEastSaw5 ай бұрын
Special can also denote a higher performance version. For example, the 365 special is a professional saw with a closed port cylinder for more power versus the 365.
@82f100swb4 ай бұрын
Not all Specials are closed port. The closed port cylinder was entirely an EPA thing. It appeared before the designation change, however, for markets outside North America, the open port cylinder hung around until 08, and the last holdout was the Russian market.

Hi Gary. They never really called out exactly what the E stood for, but they boasted that it had the Efficient X-torq engine, the Easy fill flip up caps and the smart start technology and tooless chain adjust.

@WSTMike2 жыл бұрын
Hi Jared! Glad you enjoyed the video. I like the Mark 2’s a lot. Zippy saws and they improved the Auto tune on them. Much more dependable. If you are looking for a 70cc saw, I would tell you to get a 372XP!!! This does not have auto tune or the x-torq. This is the old school carb system. The reason why they still make it after all these years is the loggers love it. It is bulletproof. It would be perfect for bucking or milling. The fully adjustable carb would allow you to richen up the saw when milling and make sure you are getting plenty of lubricant to the cylinder. Milling is harder in saws then bucking. Doesn’t take much adjustment either. Just a bump on the high needle counterclockwise. I have an older 372 that is still cutting a lot of wood. Hope this helped. You will see the 372 I have in more videos upcoming. Thanks for watching! We appreciate it! WST

Hi Robert, thanks for stopping by and commenting. I will give you my opinion. The 572XP gives you an excellent power to weight ratio. That is very important in any chainsaw. The 572XP is a perfect choice for the jump from the Rancher to a professional model saw. I highly recommend it. I believe you buddy has a 576XP. That is what I have and it gives you a little more cc’s, but not enough to make a real difference. What you end up getting is just a bigger gas tank, which loggers like. Very subtitle differences, that’s it. I’m building a 372XP now. I went this direction because of the power to weight ratio. If you haven’t subscribed, please do. You can see this saw very soon. I am also working on a serial number video. It’s complicated, especially for the older saws. Rest assured I will get this done for you all out there. Thanks again and I hope this helped. WST

Is the bar interchangeable with other models.. I mean are all the bars the same and fit regardless of length?
@WSTMike2 жыл бұрын
Hello! The bars are not all interchangeable. Each manufacture states whether that particular saw is a small mount or large mount. They also use codes; Example K095 which is the pattern for mounting the bar to your saw. The easiest way to figure out the right bar for your saw is to use the model number of your saw and find a cross reference chart. Baileys has a very good chart online www.baileysonline.com that will help you with the right selection of bar for your saw. I run all Husqvarna saws and have both large and small mount bars. As long as the mount pattern is correct, I can run it on any saw matching that pattern. Hope this helps and thank you for commenting. WST

Hi whatdya say there buddy I'm an engineer in the UK and have a question that hard to get an answer to! My pal a prof welder has asked me to relace the broken drive gear that is bronze welded to the clutch drum. I see this Jonsered 16" saw is part of the Husqvarna group. It has a 3/8 pitch -7 teeth sprocket. I measured the ID of the drum which is 63.8mm. I have not been able to get any suppliers to confirm what their inside diameters of the drums are. It seems inputting Jonsered into the net to get anywhere but Husqvarna 36 and 41 has the same data re pitch and 7 teeth but no diameter is stated. All the Chinese supplyers say make sure you check that the ordered item is correct & yet they do not seen to have a measure of more accurately a vernier!!! OMG /Jesus wept. Please can you say if the drum for the saw I state Husq is 63.8mm ID?

Try this link. Pro models have a black riveted tag by the oil fill area, generally. The link gives you an idea of other areas. az417944.vo.msecnd.net/images/model-locator/husqvarna/husqvarna-chainsaw-model-number.jpg

So I own a mid 80's Husqvarna 181se. As I understand the se denotes pro saw back in the day? Also own a 45 with no other characters, also mid 80's. Both we my fathers, bought new. Still banging out wood today.
@WSTMike2 жыл бұрын
Hey Bill! Twice in one day! I’m buying a lottery ticket! You have a gem of a saw there. The 181SE was the precursor to the 281XP. The SE essentially means it was a special edition. It had a high power to weight ratio than many of its cousins. The saw was favorite for guys making race saws out of them. They could handle more power and perform. The 45 is a general run of the mill saw. Nothing fancy about it. Just a 45cc limber/bucker. The beauty is the older saws still perform well and in my opinion, perform better. Take care of them and they will treat you right. Hope this was helpful. WST

Sorry, but the first number is not the generation. Husqvarna models range from 1-5 (excluding the new Aspire range). These denote the level of use the model is intended for, with 1 being occasional domestic, through to 5 being all day, every day professional use. Nothing to do with how many times the model has been updated.

This was my impression too. But maybe not historically? Also, i think that second number shall be seen as the tenth in the cc, and the last more of a model number. Came here trying to verify that hypothesis, but got more confused.
