Yup, TCD has much better alternatives to a new 261

blimey and i thought i had problems with mine

 

i think ours has been in 8 times for warranty repairs if it wasnt such a nice saw to use it would have been on ebay

As I said when they first came out, computers on saws are a bad idea, you only need to look at an ecu on a car or lorry, when they work, they're good, my saw is great, but I don't think that after 2 years of knocks, weather and fuel they will last, more over, can they go in an ultrasonic cleaner?

i agree with that ours was a week old and got hit with a tree then one of the lads hit it with the brush cutter he says he never seen it:confused1:

I to have had nothing but starting troubles with the 550xp going back for the seventh time.Last time wanted money back or exchange for similar saw but was told not shops policy.Thought if you have been sold faulty goods you are entitled to a full refund or goods to same value but first you must give them the right to repair it , think six times is just a joke.Emailed Husqvarna today to see what they have to say.PS hi from new member
