Yeah, but it costs almost as much as the 346xp, and appears to have plastic cases.:jawdrop:

Yeah, it was more than my 346 but there is metal under the plastic covers, it's a XP so it's worth it!
No CAD here

Nice looking Jonsered 2135T, I'll have to have one of those soon!
Great photos too.

What surpriced me, is that the clutch cover is mag, and I agree with the comment on metal under the plastic......
That saw sure is a cool one - but Husky probably will never admit what it really was designed for - the rear handle is the clue.....

Thanks Troll
My cutting partner is into Jonsered saws, I'll twist his arm some but he will want a 2139T.

And it was designed for?. I'm holding my breath... tell me!

One-handed limbing of felled spruce is my guess - it is common here with other saws, but the 339 looks like it is specially designed for it. There is (comparably) lots of those saws out here, mostly among the limited number of pros.
I have tried it, and it works very nice for that application.

Btw, spruce doesn't really belong here, but lots were planted to compensate for for the (fir) trees felled by the Germans during the WW II, later to make pulp-wood, and the forrest administration just recently came to their sences, and stopped it.....:censored:

I was making some test cuts on some Ash trees with the 339. Well the bar nut must have been loose. Got done with a cut had the saw on it's side when the bar nut fell off, followed by the bar cover, followed by the bar.
Never had that happen before! I did have the camera along and here's the result!

and the MS192 and MS200?
opcorn: Likewise, the smaller Dolmar/Makita DCS341, and DCS401 have only a single nut. The manufacturers must have thought the users intelligent enough to ensure the single nut was tight.

Hopefully no real damage!
Unlike the MS361 (that I love), there is metal on both sides of the part of the chain that is inside the saw.....
Btw, is that a 13" bar?

Not too bad I guess, since you posted pics of it........
OK, 16" then - any plans of trying a shorter one?
Btw, I once forgot to tighten both bar nuts on my 353, but discovered it in time as the cover started to make a laud rattling sound. One bar nut was lost, thats all....

What you mean is the Sitka Spruce (Picea sitchensis) that was planted a lot of after WW II, and here on the West Coast they are growing fast, very fast some places and are regarded as weed.
Norway Spruce (Picea abies) and Pine (Pinus sylvestris) is what's normal here.

Yes the Jonsered CS 2135T is history, it got a new name "Husqvarna NE 334T", and the "Husqvarna NE 338xpt" and the "Jonsered CS 2139T" is based on what Jonsered did to the old 334 to make the 2135T, and now the Top-handle from Husqvarna/Jonsered is better then ever..thanks to Jonsered...
