Whaaat!

Whoa! cool! I must have one... I'm sure I'll find a use for it....

 

Maybe its for carrying your saw between trees?

 

Ed your talking about No 2 right? I thought it was for making those awkward bore cuts on leaning on heavily weighted one sided trees.

dont ask me thats what the translation on husqvarnas russian site lists it as! they do one with orange handles thats different again, but i cant work out quite what its for thats to this one they use to 262xp engine on them though! none of this new fangled equipment

felling christmas trees i believe

they could be for wheelchair users

 

Exactly,double amputee wheelchair users.As use by able bodied people would mean loosing their feet.

This is Russian Husqvarna 362XPH I think .

 

It replaced 262XPH that disscontinued a year ago.

 

This is becurse there is a need for these saws when there is a lot of snow.

They dig out the snow around the stump, send the saw in to the hole and fell the tree. If leverege is needed they use small 1dm trees to push it over.

 

If they were in the hole running the saw it would take a logger/tree... We can't have that can we?

That first pic is a modern version of a saw I saw on a video of Russian/ Eastern Europeans crosscutting timber that had been dragged out of the forest by tractor.
