For the lumberjack (and tree-cutting enthusiasts out there), nothing beats the chainsaw in its usefulness and efficiency in doing their job. The old-fashioned and traditional axe clearly pales in comparison to the utility and power the chainsaw offers when it comes to clearing off those stumps from your way.

Husqvarna then offers the public their new all around chainsaw- the Husqvarna 450. Designed to pull off that professional finish to your cutting jobs, the Husqvarna 450 promises its users effective the speed, functionality and safety they so desire when it comes to chainsaws for home use. So is this machine worth your money and time? Read on to find out more.

Key Features

* A transparent fuel indicator which makes it easy to check fuel level.
* Combined start/stop switch, Smart Start and fuel pump make the saw very easy to start.
* Centrifugal air cleaning system removes larger dust and debris particles before reaching the air filter, often resulting in reduced air filter cleanings and improved engine life.
* The X-Torq engine technology reduces fuel consumption up to 20% and emissions up to 60%.
* Non-CARB Compliant/Not For Sale In California
* Right out of the box, the Husqvarna weighs in at 17 lbs, which is well within the industry average.

The machine features a combined start and stop switch, which in effect, increases the ease and speed to which you can turn your chainsaw on and off, especially during emergency situations. In addition, the Husqvarna 450 has an Auto Return stop switch to further enhance its emergency shut off features. How's that for increased safety measures?

X-Torq engines are known to be fuel- and energy- efficient, apart from its power in delivering the performance its users so desire in a machine. The X-Torq engine allows you to reduce your chainsaw's precious fuel consumption levels by 20% at most (and that should be a plus factor), and reduce your carbon emissions by 60%. Now that's an eco-friendly chainsaw (that is, when you will be able to get past the fact that it does cut trees).

The Husqvarna 450 also features a transparent fuel indicator, which allows its users to actively monitor the chainsaw's fuel levels. That should be enough to warn you when your machine is running low on fuel and is in need of fuel replenishment.

In terms of performance, the Husqvarna 450 cuts well through barks and trunks rather well. The 18” head should work to its advantage, but needs some level of monitoring to keep tension levels at the required intensity. The tension adjusting is rather easy to perform since the unit is found on the outside of the machine.
