YOUR INPUT......WHAT about a Husky 394XP ?

[johnlhatfield1]

I NEED SOME INFO. about a 394xp SAW. I guess it is bigger than the 371XP. Does the xp mean it is a
commercial type.

About how many cc's ?? Is this saw a discontinued model ? The one I have found has no b/c.

what things may I expect to have to do? (Its my Spring project I guess)

THANKS

JOHN

My opinion is: Go get it. Last 394 I passed on still makes me grit my teeth when I think about it.

Model Profile: 394XP

 

[deezelman]

there was one in my area for $400. big miss on my part

The 394xp was replaced by the 395xp, but share cases.

I see that you're a Stihl guy, so think of 066/660 with a little more weight and power.

Just under 94cc
Just over 7 hp
"pro" saw
Outboard clutch
Discontinued but parts are easy
Who knows what it'll need, but a safe assumption would be everything.

I'll put in another vote for getting that saw. I bought a 394 when they first came out. Possibly my favorite power tool of all time.

I passed on a 3120 for that price. I had just spent quite a bit and didn't need the saw for anything I could think of. I should have bought it just because it was cheap. Been kicking myself for two years. Oh, well.

The 394 is a beast and very desirable.

Many Thanks Gentlemen-----------------Sounds like it could be a HOSS Saw.

Im making a trip to get it on Saturday: 394XP PICS will follow this post "If things work out"

I'll be needing more support as I get started

I had one and sold it to a fellow member here.
There are times i wish i'd kept it. Great running
saw with lots of power. I was impressed with it.

Its a high top (should have the larger air filter), and the clutch cover isn't broken. Other than that it just appears a little dirty. Does it have compression, and does it run?

 

[tlandrum]

looks like it will clean up nicely

 

[excess650]

You didn't get it from a McCoy, did you?

 

[hanniedog]

Blow her out good with compressed air, wipe her down so shes all pretty. Then gas her up an cut some wood.

THIS HUSKY is a bit heavy for my age....

Hope this thing runs.......the preacher said it would--he's a Hunter not a McCoy

See something missing?







cant find a handle

 

[stihlavarna]

and an air filter clip, poss stop switch?

Hang on they pull like a freight train, when I sold my MS660 I forgot all about it when my 394XP came along.

Huskys just have a start switch like a car. No need for the outdated pull rope.
