    Husqvarna model stickers

    Is there a source for Husqvarna stickers - the ones on the side of the chain brake and starter. I have an old 36 that I would like to "spruce up". Let me know, thanks!

    Plastic Needle Bearing?

    I just replaced my clutch drive sprocket and the needle bearing on my Husqvarna 36. The old clutch drum sprocket was pretty worn, so the replacement was necessary. I purchased the new parts online. I put the new needle bearing on after greasing it liberally, and I noticed that it had a...

    Removing the Clutch on Husqvarna 36

    I recently noticed that the clutch on my Husky 36 was worn pretty badly. I purchased a clutch assembly online, and I am going to replace the worn clutch. Is there any easy way to remove the clutch? I have lost the original manual for the saw, and I do not see an easy way to get the clutch...

    Best Ripping Chain - Husqvarna 455

    I have a couple of nice Walnut logs that I would like to rip with my Husky 455. I know that the saw is a little underpowered, but I would like to try my hand at ripping them. What is the best ripping chain to use for a saw like this? The logs are only about 18 -20" in diameter. I originally...

    Stihl ms310 and ms390 - Opinions?

    Hello from eastern Indiana! I would like to get your opinions on a couple of models that Stihl produces. My brother-in-law has recently moved to a property that has many opportunities for using a chainsaw. He has a lot of potential firewood on the property, and he also has a fireplace that he...

    Oregon Bars for Husky 455 and 36

    I have a Husky Rancher 455 with a 20 inch stock bar and a Husky 36 with a 16 inch bar. I just purchased a couple of chains for both saws. I received great information on the type of chains to purchase from all of you guys on the site. Thanks. Both of the bars on each of the saws are pretty...

    Oregon Chain 72LGX vs. 72LG

    I recently replaced my worn out chains on my Husky 455 with an Oregon Chain 72LGX which I purchased online. Man, the saw really cuts well now. My question is this, "I have seen many online sites that advertise 72LG chain - what is the difference between this chain and the 72LGX?" Thanks in...

    Best Chain for Husqvarna 36

    I have had a Husqvarna 36 for a few years, and I would like to know what you guys think would be the best chain for this model. I am kind of partial to Oregon chains because when I got this saw a few years ago, my father got me a couple of Oregon chains to go along with the stock chain. I have...

    Chain Sharpening In the Field

    Thanks for all the info. Kirby 33, I am getting more dust than shavings from my saw. Poulson 01, I am filling the rakers down as I file the teeth back - I have the file that Husky makes that does this in one step.

    Chain Sharpening In the Field

    I have been using a Husqvarna 36 for a few years, and I have always used Husqvarna's file to sharpen the chain in the field. I also have a Husqvarna file for my 455 Rancher. I am able to keep the chains sharp for a while, but eventually it seems like the files get less effective in keeping the...

    Opinions Husqvarna 42 and 455 Rancher

    Thanks for all the info. I must have been going through a real brain fade earlier today. My older saw is a model 36 not a 42 - I guess wishful thinking :^)

    Opinions Husqvarna 42 and 455 Rancher

    Hello from eastern Indiana! I have had a Husqvarna 42 for several years, and it has performed pretty well (mostly trimming and limited firewood cutting). However, it is definitely underpowered for larger jobs. Recently, my father gave me A Husqvarna 455 Rancher for a Christmas gift. I have...
