Hi guys I'm about to do my cs30/31 at the end of the month. I own a Husqvarna 455 rancher with a 15 inch bar. I have received the requirements for the course and the saw fits in with the requirements but I was just wondering if this saw is good enough for the course as I know it's not a pro saw. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

It will be fine, the course is about you and how you handle it not the saw. You'll be amazed at the other students and their saws and standards.

 

Good luck!

One of our lads did it with a 181... You should be alright :D

Yeah, I did it with a stihl ms211. Served me excellently. So your husky will be ideal.

i used a tiny 180 echo on my first course - so you will be fine - maybe slow but fine.

 

tips....... engage brain.

the course is idiot proof so take it slow and steady - you can speed up once you have it.

be a perfectionist with all your cuts and same with the workshop side - look at other ppls saws aswell as your own - i recently taught a chap to go for the quals and realised that id gone fuzzy on some aspects of the maintanance - so take notes in the nice booklet they give you.

 

good luck
