Husqvarna H353 Chainsaw Specification

The Husqvarna H353 Chainsaw is a robust and efficient tool designed for both professional and demanding consumer use. Engineered with a focus on performance and user comfort, this chainsaw features a powerful 51.7 cc X-Torq® engine, which reduces fuel consumption and exhaust emissions, aligning with stringent environmental regulations. The engine delivers a power output of 2.4 kW, ensuring efficient cutting capabilities across various applications.

The chainsaw is equipped with an adjustable oil pump, allowing precise control of oil flow based on the task and weather conditions, thus optimizing performance and chain life. The Smart Start® technology minimizes resistance in the starter cord, facilitating easier starts with minimal effort. Additionally, the air injection system pre-cleans air intake, reducing wear and extending engine life.

Ergonomics are a key consideration in the H353's design, with LowVib® anti-vibration technology significantly reducing operator fatigue during extended use. The chainsaw's balanced weight distribution, along with a total weight of approximately 5 kg without the cutting equipment, enhances maneuverability and control.

Safety features include an inertia-activated chain brake that reduces the risk of injury from kickback. The chainsaw's quick-release air filter and snap-lock cylinder cover simplify maintenance tasks, promoting longer operational life and reliability.

The Husqvarna H353 is designed for versatility, accommodating a variety of bar lengths ranging from 13 to 20 inches, allowing it to tackle both small and large-scale cutting tasks effectively. This chainsaw stands out as a durable and high-performance tool, ideal for users seeking a blend of power, efficiency, and ease of use in demanding environments.
