When working outdoors, the right tool can make all the difference. “Work smarter, not harder” has become a common mantra in many fields. It also applies to woodcutting. Let’s learn about Husqvarna saws, the different grades, and chainsaw uses—from light tasks to logging.
Light Duty
Chainsaw uses range from around-the-home projects to professional forestry. Light duty chainsaws are designed with the homeowner in mind. Because of its light weight, these saws come in handy for common outdoor projects. They excel at pruning limbs, carpentry, and chipping away at tasks like making firewood.
Light duty models: 120i, 120 II
Medium Duty
Packed with a little more punch than their light duty counterparts, medium duty saws can stand up to tougher conditions. These saws share the same easy start, use, and service features light duty has. However, their chainsaw uses encompass larger projects, such as property maintenance and felling trees.
Medium duty models: 130, 135 II, 115iPT4, 414EL
Heavy Duty
Heavy duty chainsaws boast a little more engineering ingenuity. In addition to easy start and service, heavy duty saws are equipped with a combined start/stop switch and quick-release engine cover. These models tackle more demanding jobs and can handle more frequent use. They shine when it comes to property maintenance and cutting down larger trees.
Heavy duty models: 439, 455 Rancher, 460 Rancher, 435e II, 440e II, 445e II, 450e II
