Husqvarna’s Updated 362XP Chain Saw Offers Large Bar Mount
CHARLOTTE, N.C. [July 26, 2006] – Husqvarna introduces the updated 362XP, a heavy duty chain saw that now offers a large bar mount.
The 362XP is a true professional saw with high power and low weight, developed in cooperation with professional users for optimum performance. Its slim engine body, high center of gravity and superior ergonomics make it exceptionally easy to work with.
The new big bar mount accommodates a larger bar while the 4.6 hp engine delivers rapid acceleration and consistent power to run longer and stronger for more demanding projects.
For ease of operation and better control, the 362XP is equipped with Husqvarna’s LowVib® anti-vibration system that helps isolate the handles of the saw from the engine, resulting in low vibration levels. The Air Injection system removes up to 97 percent of debris before it enters the air filter, resulting in smoother operation, improved maintenance intervals and decreased wear on the engine.
The 362XP utilizes Smart Start technology and continues Husqvarna’s tradition of offering easy starting saws. Additional features include an air purge, decompression valve and the combined choke/stop control. Also standard on the 362XP are self-regulating chain lubrication, side-access chain tensioner, and inertia-activated chain break.
Built in the sturdy tradition of Husqvarna products, the 362XP is constructed with a precision-forged three-piece crankshaft, heavy duty muffler and a metal clutch cover – durability that will stand up to heavy use."
