Husqvarna 130 Gas Powered Chainsaw, 16 Inch

Started on the 4th pull, cuts like a lightsaber.

Impressive, exactly what it said it was

Works for what we needed. Shipping was super fast.

I was always told Husqvarna was the best chainsaws on the market. I had purchased a Home Depot brand a few years back. It lasted three years and finally died. So this year I decided to get a Husqvarna, and boy was I disappointed. My first attempt at using it, it started pretty fast and quickly stalled. After about 12 or more pulls of the starter cord I finally got it started again. This time I was able to make a couple of cuts, but then stalled again. Once again, it took more than 10 pulls to finally get it started again. When I released the chain brake and and give it gas to make a cut, you guessed it, it stalled again. There are adjustments, one for idle, and two for gas mixture (idle gas mix and accelerator gas mix. But they only give you the tool for adjusting the idle, and not for the gas mixture adjustments - why not?? So I ordered the spline tool needed for that adjustment, figuring that was the problem. When I got it, I started the saw and adjusted the idle, and also the gas mix for both standing idle and accelerator. Wow! I was able to do five cuts this time before it stalled. So, here we go again, another 10 to 15 pulls to get it started only for it to stall again. I tried so many adjustment increments for idle and gas mixture, but to no avail. So, I contacted Amazon and said I am sending it back. They told me they can't take it back because it's gas powered, but will issue me a full credit. THANK YOU, AMAZON! The Amazon associate told me I could either keep it, donate it, or throw it in the garbage. I chose the latter, in the garbage it went! I'm not some newbie with power tools, including a chain saw. This saw was a piece of garbage. I guess now I can try Stihl. Either that or get another cheap Home Depot model. At least that lasted me 3 years! This was only a week!

Great saw for the price!!!

The 130 is a good saw for anyone needing occasional use around the home. I bought it because it was highly rated on one of those “best of” sites and the price was reasonable. I have found it (so far—only a week in at this point) pretty easy to start. It has run great for me. I’d have given it 5 stars except that I discovered the bar adjustment screw was bent, which made it hard to turn. No worries; I ordered a new adjustment screw kit for $12 and now it’s right as rain. I’m trying to figure out why the assembler would install an obviously bent screw (see the photo). But things happen. I’m still pretty sold on Husqvarna as a brand.

Exelent

Works perfect like a husqvarna should

Después de 5 meses usando la Husqvarna 130, puedo decir que ha sido una herramienta confiable para el trabajo en casa. Su motor de 38 cc y 2 HP ofrece la potencia justa para tareas como cortar leña y podar árboles medianos. Lo que más me ha gustado es lo fácil que es de manejar, ya que es bastante ligera y no se siente pesada después de un uso prolongado. El engrasador automático es un buen detalle, ya que mantiene la cadena lubricada sin tener que preocuparme por ello constantemente. En cuanto al arranque, sigue funcionando bien después de varios meses de uso, sin complicaciones, algo que valoro mucho. Si bien no es una motosierra para trabajos muy pesados, para el mantenimiento de mi jardín y algunos proyectos de carpintería, ha sido más que suficiente. Definitivamente ha valido la pena.

Comes with mixing oil, chain & bar already assembled. No gas/bar oil included. Started exactly how it should right away, burned about 20 gas tanks so far and have had 0 problems, cut some hardwood bigger than the bar just fine and lots of trail clearing....saw is very light and perfect for beginner's with plenty of power. Saw broke in after 10 gas refills and cuts better than new. 100% recommend

Works well but why the exhaust outlet is put at the front of the machine beats me. Work downwind or on a still day and you'll get a mugful of exhaust fumes. Reasonably easy to start and cuts very well. Would have given five stars but for the daft exhaust issue.

Mi primera motosierra,ligera de peso y muy potente,muy fácil de montar y mantenimiento,tanto para limpieza de fincas,poda o corte de arboles,como para picar leña su poco peso ayuda en la tarea,roble,castaño,pino,eucalipto,da igual madera seca o verde,sin esfuerzo la corta,muy manejable,estoy encantado con ella. Un profesional usará una de mayor tamaño de espada y potencia,para rentabilidad su trabajo,pero este modelo es ideal para uso de casa,aunque se use habitualmente.

Fonctionne très bien
