New Husky 373???

[slowtorque1]

My employer is buying me a new Husky to use for my chainsaw safety training activities. The person who ordered it swears it is a 373 rather than a 372. Is this a new model to replace the 372 or is this person just misinformed? If it is a new model, wonder how it has changed? This will be my first Husky saw. Can I store it next to my 036 and 046M or will there be some sort of violent reaction? Ha!

John, Husqvqarna is not showing the 373 on their website. I think huskys and stihls get along ok as long as you are watching them.

John,
I would be carefull.I had a Husky saw in a Stihl case last summer for a few weeks.The saw started developing what I would call a "plastic rash". Also,there was slight color deterioration.
All symtoms went away shortly after the saw was removed and placed in a Husqvarna case.
Keep us posted on the 373.
Mike.
