Big old dead lump of a door stop I have heard it described .......

interested to know this also. The 361 was a great saw. Got a job coming up where i will be looking for a saw in this size range for.

They seem a bit heavy, ungainly and not that exciting in their use plus they do knock their drum bearings out.

 

Don't expect a 361 or 461!!!

Heavy and cumbersome not enough power need I go on 😂

Get you 361 rebuild & ported

[carlos]

thanks for the replies, looks like it may be a husky 560 then, although the boss is a stihl man the 261 we had has somewhat lessened his loyalty!

or maybe just spruce up the 361 and see if it keeps going.

thanks.

We've had a couple of 362s for 2years which we had from new. Apart from usual maintenance & a re-tune on one at Jones...no problem at all. Mind you, I've not had a 361 to compare it to.
