Husqvarna CD480

[Mstock56]

Hi,

 

I've looking to replace my Dolmar PS410 which is struggling with the volume of work I'm using it for - logging for up to 5hrs on a mixture of hardwoods and I'm not to too comfortable with the feel of the Saw too much plastic. I have been offered a cheap Husqvarna CD480 which I like the look and feel appreciate this will be a heavier older Saw and was wondering if this was a good Saw.

I have a cd380 which I think is the same saw just a couple of years younger, it's brilliant!

 

Plenty of old fashioned grunt and out works a lot of my newer saws, it is quite heavy though.

Big, heavy, vibes but the torque is always impressive on these old machines. Probably best for use now and then rather than all the time!

Lots of parts now obsolete so be careful, if it breaks it could be the end of it, good old saw though.

There was a 480 advertised on gumtree earlier in the week, think it was advertised in Corby, 29 quid, missing chain. Probably just a coincidence.
