Which Husqvarna Chainsaw is the Best
Over the past 60 years, Husqvarna has continued to develop user-centric technologies which has improved the efficiency of the arboriculture industry. The brand’s development of its ground-breaking anti-vibration technology has improved the health of forestry workers who often suffer from ‘white fingers disease’ as a result of vibrations. In 1973, Husqvarna created the first chainsaw in the world to feature an automatic chain brake, and in 2009, Husqvarna AutoTune™ was introduced to regulate fuel flow and reduce emissions. On every saw you’ll find a Husqvarna chainsaw chain, and the brand’s X-Cut saw chains provides users with a new level of cutting experience. These chainsaw chains are designed to deliver maximum cutting performance and help you get the most out of your chainsaw.
