I'm having a problem and I was hoping someone here could give me some guidance. I have a Husqvarna 350 chainsaw. Whenever I'm cutting a log with a diameter larger than the depth of the bar the saw starts to bog down. It loses power and actually starts burning the log that I'm cutting. Once the cut is complete, and usually I'll have to go at it from a number of angles to complete the cut, you can see acutual burn marks on the cut face from where the saw has bogged down during the cut. I had the chain sharpened fairly recently by a neighbor. The log I was cuttong was only about 12 inches in diameter. I've had problems with cutting logs of that diameter or larger since I've gotten the saw. Is it a problem with my saw or am I doing something wrong? Thanks.
