Husqvarna 130-First Look

[svk]

Thanks Steve, I have afraid of that.

There probably isn’t enough benefit to add another bar mount to the collection, it sounded like putting one of the 13” .325’s would have been handy, but I don’t find the 353 with a 16” bar all that onerous.

Just a sprocket change would have made the 130, an interesting saw for $200

Totally understand that. You have three very able saws in the 45-50 cc realm so probably not a lot of reason to add another that is less powerful with only slightly less weight.

Blasphemy,
Total and Complete Blasphemy, I tell ya

who ever NEEDED a Reason to add another saw?

Is CAD not reason enough to add a Handy little saw, at a reasonable price?

Dayum, I’m Surprised, and Disappointed in you Steve

Then you had better buy one!!! A041 bars and chains are cheap LOL.

A few years ago, Left Coast was selling A041 bars with a loop of Oregon non-safety chain for less than $20. I bought several combos but sold most of them with saws over the years.

Tempting as it is, a 70cc saw would “Fill a Hole” in my collection a little better.

I’m really thinking about one of those Pre X Torq 372XP’s that Robin Wood has available NIB, and Dayumed if Skeans hasn’t piqued my interest in the 562XP as well

My CAD hasn’t gone into remission, just trying to balance priorities, financial as well as Saw “Needs”

At $200, the 130, is fairly inexpensive CAD “Treatment”

At least “Fiskars Acquisition Disorder” is a bit more Affordable

$200 you say? What the hell, I guess I better pick one up.

Hey guys. I’ve got too many saws so I’m looking to sell the 130. It’s been a great saw for the time I’ve had it.

Did the question about the oil get answered? Is it crank or clutch driven?

 

[svk]

I’ll have to check

Thank you. I looked at the ipl. There appears to be a wound wire behind a washer behind the clutch that acts as a gear to drive the pump. It isn't clear how the wound wire is being driven. Here's a pic. Someone smarter than me can probably figure it out.

That wound wire is the drive gear for the oil pump . The oiler is pumping oil with the engine at idle .

Well I finally got around to doing the timing advance today. Saw seems a little snappier and had more torque in the cut.

This model has the key cast into the flywheel. Sure doesn’t take much filing to slim it down!
