Husky 353

Just looking at a second hand 353. Are they a pro saw or semi pro? Have a 346xp on a 15" bar but wouldnt mind a back up saw roundabout the same size....

Yup, they are a pro saw, very much like your 346 but a little more torque and less get up and go. Would be a good backup saw to your 346!

Had one from new and ran it for several years and the only thing I could fault it on was it's thirst for clutch springs.

 

I know of at least two other people who had the 353 too who had the same issue.

 

It wasn't stupidly often but noticably more often than the 346's did.

Use one as ground saw snedding for chipper. And nice and light up tree as well but it is a great all rounder

Ditto this,I had 2 and they were very reliable for a husky!

Jonsered 2152 is the same saw and (for a Jonsered) are common and seem to go for less than the Husqvarna version. Presumably because fewer people have heard of Jonsered.

 

I have one on eBay at the moment. There are a few others too, all look in good condition.
