OK everyone I got a new saw because my other one was 17 years old and things were starting to Leak. However It still runs great. I am very well aware of The reasons you warm up a saw But I never have and I probably never will 😂 just being honest . thanks for watching!

Hey thanks for watching. I know right but I honestly Probably won’t let it warm up unless it’s in the winter when the metals cold I have some small engine mechanics And some arborist friends and not one of them has ever said they’ve let anything warm up before and had a problem so I’m just not that worried about it. They all say as long as your oils mixed right you got nothing to worry about! As far as you buying one of these I bought that thing last year And it’s been awesome I might buy another one . I highly recommend it

I just ran my new Husqvarna 455 Rancher yesterday. It had that same Husqvarna safety chain. I like the 3/8'' pinch chain and 20'', .050 gauge bar. I have the older 340 and 350 chainsaws too. I just run to semi- chisel chains that come stock with the saw and replace them when they're wear out. I rarely touch my rakers, I just file them gradually. The cutters I hand file after every empty fuel tank or two. I love Oregon bars and chains too. Husqvarna has very similar bar and chain quality. Stihl has great chains too. I'm just a big Husqvarna fan!

I have a 460, bought new several years ago and it has been nothing but trouble. If it will start or I should say 'when it starts and runs' it cuts well but doesn't and has never idled well or at all. Of course it has to start to idle. I'd be happy if it would start. I can deal with the idle problem. I threw $$$$ away and bought a huge bundle of frustration on this Husky. Sure wish I'd bought a Stihl...... my Stihl (smaller) saws start always. ---- My first and LAST Husqy!

Hey Dirt Brute... i have had to replace my 455 also after 12 years. As it turns out our 455's have plastic casings not magnesium so the back of the two side cover bolts will pull right through the plastic due to overtightening . I always tightened too much and my casings leaked out bar oil. They are only supposed to be handctightened using the small scrench and nothing with more leverage. Cheerz.

I bought a new Husqvarna 460 Rancher 6 weeks ago. When I purchased it, the dealer got it ready and started it at the dealership. I have not used the chainsaw yet, but I wanted to start it up and run it. I followed the instructions. After well over a hundred pulls in the rope it won’t start. I called Husqvarna customer service and they were absolutely no help at all. Here I have a chainsaw that has been started once. NOT A SINGLE BLEMISH ON IT, and they’re instructing me that I MUST have the receipt to get warranty service - even though it is clearly absolutely new. Beyond that, it has a serial number on it. This is the year 2021, correct? Should they not be able to look up the serial number and all the data related to it and the purchase that was made? There’s entire online profiles built for all of us that’s sold to marketers, and I still have to try to hold onto a paper receipt for warranty service? Shouldn’t they be able to pull that serial number and see when it was manufactured? Shouldn’t they be able to see that between there literally being no use on this chainsaw and the date it was manufactured that they should be covering the warranty work on it? Nope. Just some kid with a heavy accent saying, “yes that is our policy”.
@DirtBrute2 жыл бұрын
Yeah I’m sorry to hear that I would take it back to the dealer you bought it from and hold them responsible. I know the saws I buy around here go through the dealer not the manufacture. I’ve never even contacted a manufacturer for anything. The dealer should put in to have their work covered under the warranty by manufacture. It’s like if you buy a Ford truck from the dealer. Their service department would be the ones to file all of the paperwork for the warranty. I would take it back to where you bought it and ask them to try and start it. I hate to say it but you may just be doing something wrong.

@@DirtBrute true it’s none of the above. I’m 59 and retired lineman. I’ve ran saws everyday during storm damage. I also have been cutting firewood for 30 years for our cabin, we are sole wood stove heat. You cut like a green horn and hit dirt almost immediately, who cares if you can sharpen a chain you should lear better control with your tool. You also should never full throttle “right out of a box” They are tuned for zero feet elevation which usually means you or the dealer will start run idle then adjust and tune allowing the saw to run a complete cycle before bucking up a tree. Just food for thought. 👍🏻 husky saws are a decent tool and should last a while if stored properly. I personally run Stihl but most of mine are from early 80’s
