Just purchased a 460 Rancher. Tried to register it online and get the above error. What gives?- General Product Question posted January 29, 2012 by Wayne WellerQuestion:+I obtained a Husqvarna 55 Rancher without an owners manual. The data plate had the the following info: Husqvarnar 55, 967 05 29-00, 01 2600820. I went on line to find an owners manual however was unable to find one. Can anyone help?
- General Product Question posted January 15, 2014 by JPQuestion:1983---"Here's why you can't buy a Husqvarna chainsaw at a chain store".--1983Details:
So my question to Husqvarna is what happened to the loyalty to their own words? Or was it a lie then and now it is ok to sell at the "Big Box Stores" that Husqvarna was making fun of and mocking back in 1983.
Husqvarna advertisement from 1983.
We believe that the person who sells a Husqvarna Chainsaw must be able to service it. That's why we only sell our chainsaws through servicing dealers.
The reason is as simple as it is important.
You buy a chainsaw to cut wood. When you want to use it, you want to use it now. Having to wait for parts or the saw's return from a service center are delays we will not tolerate.
So the guy that wants to go to a big chain store and buy a chainsaw will just have to get along without Husqvarna.
And our Husqvarna dealer may have to wait and sell that guy his second chainsaw.
He won't have to wait long.
For a dealer nearest you, consult your Yellow Pages or write

224 Thorndale Ave, Bensenville, Illinois, 60106 - General Product Question posted October 3, 2014 by michael loweQuestion:445 18" bar chain so tight on loosest setting engine bound upDetails:
help please I purchased a factory refurbished 445 chainsaw with a 18" bar some time ago to cut down a unwanted tree. Well, I never got the saw to start and it always seemed like there was something hungup. I finally tired starting it without a bar or chain on and wow did it run good. Put the bar and chain on and back to frustration. I looked online and thought maybe it was that the chain had the wrong pitcc so bought a 18" .325 and it seemed to spin but got very hot. When I watched youtube videos, I noticed that chain moving smoothly when the saw was off and realized I can't do that. So, next try was I went to the store and got a new 16" bar and chain to try that thinking maybe the 18" bar and chain just were damaged. When the cover is off, I can move the sprocket and the chain seems to move smoothly, but when mounting the cover I noticed the tensioner is pushing the bar foward so much that the chain is too tight and causeing a bind situation. The tension peg is as far back as I can get it, I even tried removing the tensioner cover to see if I could get the peg to move like 1/8" back but no. I even barrowed a cover from a neighbor's Husky and still too much tension on the bar and chain. SO? is it a bad clutch sprocket? do I drill out the tensioner hole on the bar? do I shave down the tensioner peg? I am at a loss as to why it doesn't line up right. txs for any suggestions
- General Product Question posted October 27, 2014 by Terry SandersQuestion:450 Chainsaw, 20 inch bar/chain, power issues
Starts great and cuts great on anything under 10 inches in diameter. However, whenever I try to cut anything larger (red/white oak), saw bogs down heavily and often dies, especially when I pivot and try to use any forward part of the bar. Have owned a 455 Rancher and was always pleased with its performance. Have owned 450 for about 2 months now. Seems gutless. Suggestions? Since there is no adjustment allowed for H jet any longer, I can't try to tweak myself. - General Product Question posted August 24, 2011 by Brad ThomasQuestion:455 rancher:
Excessive oil under chain cover/bar cover.very little coming off bar when held in front of cardboard than normal.
replaced: (All From Your Service Center)
chain plate
hose from oiler to bar
hose into oiler to tank
cleaned complete chain saw
new chain
semi new bar ( about 30 cuts with it), Now New Bar.waste of
$40.00
oil makes it to hole were the bar is but from there is doesnt seem to make it into the bar, or at least not much of it.
seems from my perspective it is seeping between hose and bar or chain not taking up the bar.could it be a defective bar.
all chains and bar are from authorized center. also use lowe smoke oil, and husq. bar oil.
if you could please call me @ 813-***-xxxx / if no answer email: removed email address
now im Frustrated added new bar, and still does the same crap.
how much pressure is the oiler suppose to produce to force the oil into the bar hole.without bar running it seeps out steady.
Thanks, Brad - General Product Question posted December 7, 2011 by Sidney JohnsonQuestion:455 will crank up but only run on choke
- General Product Question posted August 26, 2014 by Karen MesikappQuestion:455Rancher AutoTune DOES NOT WORK AT ALTITUDE. This saw has not worked from Day 1. We go to around 9000' and follow all the instructions exactly, use the fancy fuel, etc., etc.,but once started (sometimes starts right away, but sometimes takes many, many tries), as soon as I touch the gas to rev it up, it dies. Every time it fails, we take it back to the dealer, which is at around 6800', and there it works fine. We have left it with them several times, and they have run a couple tankfuls of gas thru it, and tell us it is OK, but, as soon as we go out again to altitude, it does not work. Yesterday I used it at home (6800'), and it worked fine for around half an hour. I took a break, then when I resumed, it started up, but as soon as I touched the gas, it died out. Repeated about 20 times; it never did get running again. It is back in the shop now, but I have totally lost confidence in those people. Meanwhile, I'm cutting with 20-YEAR-OLD STHIL saw that has been working fine at all altitudes. Any ideas?
