Powerful 1.8HP X-Torq Engine Keeps Emissions Low
The 450 delivers 3.2 horsepower, making it well-suited for medium-duty jobs, such as pruning and domestic cutting. The engine features Husqvarna's special X-Torq technology, which reduces emission levels by up to 60 percent and fuel consumption by up to 30 percent, so you'll be able to harness the power of a gas-powered chainsaw without having to worry about heavy pollutant output.
Durable Engine Built for Long Life
The 450's engine has been built to withstand years of use. It uses a three-piece crankshaft, which has been forged and compressed for superior durability. Also, the chainsaw's centrifugal air cleaning system helps preserve engine life by removing harmful debris before it reaches the filter.
Easy, Effortless Startup
With the 450, you won't have to waste precious minutes trying to start the engine. The chainsaw uses a combined choke/stop control, which allows for easy engine starting and reduces the risk of flooding. Husqvarna's Smart Start offers an engine and starter that starts quickly with minimum effort--with resistance in the starter cord reduced by up to 40 percent. It also has a specially optimized fuel pump, which keeps the fuel lines clear and helps facilitate startup.
Ergonomic Design Reduces User Fatigue
The 450 has a lightweight frame that minimizes strain on your body, even after extended use. Husqvarna's LowVib anti-vibration dampeners effectively absorb vibration, sparing your arms and hands from added fatigue and allowing you to work longer and more comfortably. And it features a smartly designed rear handle with soft inlay, ergonomic trigger, and asymmetrical handle.
Premium Features for Easy Operation
The 450 is designed both for fast action when cutting and when you need to modify the chain saw while out in the field. It includes a snap-lock cylinder cover that saves you time when changing the spark plugs or cleaning the unit, quick and easy tool-less chain tensioning and assembling of the bar, and a quick-release air filter for quick replacement. And the transparent fuel indicator makes it easy to check fuel level.
Other features include an inertia activated chain brake that helps reduce the likelihood of injury due to kickback, distinct marks for better felling precision, and an air purge function that removes air from the carburetor and fuel system for easier starting. It's backed by a 2-year limited warranty.

Great Saw,
This review is from: Husqvarna 450 18-Inch 50.2cc X-Torq 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw With Smart Start (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
If you don't know how to start a chainsaw than you should not be using one! Once the saw fires you turn the choke off and pull the start cord. If you keep trying to start it with the choke on it will flood the engine. Read the user's manual, it talks about it in the manual. I just purchased the 450 and it cuts like a dream and has the power to really do the trick. I like the fact that I can put a 20" bar on this saw and have the power to get the job done. I'm not having any issues getting the saw to run even in below freezing temps. Make sure you use winter grade bar oil if you cut in the winter. It's only been two days of solid cutting but this machine has out preformed my last saw. Hopefully with good maintenance habits I can keep this thing around for a long time. Oh yea...wear chaps and a helmet. I love that macho attitude with no protective gear. You'd be amazed at how fast you can bleed out when you hit an artery!
Be Safe...

Husky 50 cc review,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Husqvarna 450 18-Inch 50.2cc X-Torq 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw With Smart Start (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
Had need of a new saw to replace an older one that was starting to give me trouble. besides that I have been wanting a second saw and this gave me a good excuse to get one. I typically cut 8 to 10 cord per year for the past 30 years and have had experience with several types and sizes. My favorite was the Husky 55 which I still have but needs some work. I checked out the reviews on the Husky 50 with the most being very good with a few bad reviews but then I saw the same with Stihl reviews so I came to the conclusion some people don't really know much about starting or using a chain saw. Anyhow Amazon had this one for a price that couldn't be beat so I thought I would take a chance on buying it online as opposed to a dealer. I wasn't disappointed. No problem with start-up. The first job I had was to clean up some storm damage. Had a large red oak uproot. At the stump it was about 29" diameter. This saw cut through that like a knife through butter. I cut up that tree in no time. The main reason I went with the smaller saw was lower weight. As one gets older that extra pound or so hanging out there can make a difference on the the back feels afterwards. I just like the way this saw feels in my hand and am impressed with its performance. This model isn't a professional model but for the work as a homeowner on over 5 acres of woodland this saw is perfect.

Husky 450 Chain Saw,
By John C Rothwell (Bluffton, SC, US) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Husqvarna 450 18-Inch 50.2cc X-Torq 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw With Smart Start (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
In my humble homeowner opinion, there are two good chain saws on the market today. Stihl and Husqvarna. The Husky 450 is an excellent medium size saw for the homeowner like me. I like the saw because it is easy to start, quiet and powerful. I would recommend it to anyone. The 18 inch bar works for the size tree I typically cut. I keep the chains sharp and have several on hand to change in the field. The bar tool comes with the saw for easy chain changeout. My two sons also use the saw and rate it as highly as I do!
