Thanks everywhere I looked showed up nothing. I guess they cut back on the high rpm to keep the emissions low?

Auto tune good or bad?

Loggers round here love auto tune......more time spent in wood.

The 543 is not a true Husky XP saw. It's a re-badged Redmax.

I was told there is three different manufacturers making husky saws now?
Do you think this turns buyers away.?

Who did you hear is building their saws (that their parent company doesn’t happen to own)?

A Stihl dealer told my buddy when he wanted to purchase a chainsaw.

Zenoah and poulan manufacturer some Husqvarna branded saws but they are both part of Husqvarna group.

I am just going to guess that a stihl dealer isn’t the most reliable source on where Husqvarna saws are made.

And redmax? He said husky is still manufacturing the bigger saws. I guess can’t keep up with the demand for chainsaws. Where’s partner, pioneer, partner/pioneer fit in with all of this? Does Husqvarna own mcculloch too?

 

[TBS]

They manufacture the majority of saws they sell. Zenoah is redmax in the usa.

Husky xp small chainsaws. Some small saws aren’t xp.

I think any 346xp, 340, 257, 353, 359 will serve you well.

I haven’t used my 353 too much cutting the larger diameter wood at the saw mill but around the house I can’t complain. Like any high rpm husky saw I keep the chains razor sharp.

I was very anti auto tune til I just got my 562xp running.

Im loving the AT system, the saw runs perfect and fuel economy is amazing.

Someday ill try one. When I purchased my 266 the 2100’s sat and waited for the big trees. The 62cc/66cc/68cc seams to be the average cc saws for the average cutters, but there a starting point for pro loggers.

I think the newest small husky prosaw is the 550xp mark2. 4hp and 10lbs. I am waiting on my dealer to get one in stock. He keeps saying they are coming
