Stihl and Husqvarna are recognised as the top world producers of quality chain saws. Both companies have their loyal followers and there is an ongoing rivalry between the companies for the right to call themselves the top company.
Stihl has achieved high accolades in recent years with ‘Best Buy’ commendations in Consumers Digest and Tools of the Trade. Consumers Digest gave ‘Best Buy’ commendations to four Stihl chain saws and Tools of the Trade placed Stihl chain saws in the top two places.
Stihl Continues to introduce new technology and innovations to their range. The Easy2Start system makes starting a chain saw, always difficult with a pull start, easy. No longer do you need strength to start a chain saw, anyone can do it with the Easy2Start system. The recently introduced Intelligent Engine Management (IEM) system is designed to automatically adjust the fuel to cope with dirty air filter, changes in altitude, changes in temperature and fuel quality. This innovative system prevents damage that might occur if the adjustment screw was changed manually.
Husvarna also introduces innovative methods and have introduced very effective anti-vibration devices that reduce fatigue considerably. Not only does this make it much easier to use the chain saw for extended periods, essential for the professionals, it also increases the safety of use as fatigue can lead to accidents. Husqvarna chain saws also feature an air injection system to improve operation and to reduce wear. This centrifugal air injection system reduces the need for cleaning the filter and also help to reduce the cost of buying new filters. most also feature forged three-piece crankshafts which give revved-up power and torque to even the smallest models. Husqvarna chain saws also have smart start technology for easier starting on many models.
Chain saws have traditionally been produced for the professional forestry worker or arborist but all the larger companies are now producing chain saws suitable for use around the home. In the last ten tears the production of small but powerful chain saws suitable for felling and cutting up small trees has increased tremendously. The companies are recognising the needs of householders for small, easy to use lightweight machines.
With Husqvarna and Stihl continously innovating and producing chain saws at the cutting edge of technology the buyers of these products will continue to reap the benefits.
