The best.
Chain Brake failed to work. Noticed the housing was NOT flush, as it should be. Removed the cover to discover the mechanism improperly seated and the spring bowed out. Unable to compress spring and keep the mechanism properly seated, as required in order to fully close the cover.
Removed spring in order to free the chain for use.
Nearly impossible to start.
Started wondering if this had been previously returned.
Consulted Husqvarna Users Manual for Troubleshooting.
Followed recommended steps to adjust/Tune chainsaw.
Remained nearly impossible to start.
Nearly impossible to keep it running once started. Would begin idling down and die.
Bulb never did get free of the air; typically they always do for me. This one stayed half full of air most of the time.
Chainsaw bogged down even cutting; no adjustments changed that.
Kept hearing what sounded like constant suction when the saw cut off.
Ran very hot when it did start and I could cut with it.
Checked spark plug. Was not what the Users Manual stated should be present/used. Was stamped with blue lettering and appeared to be a Husqvarna branded plug. Noticed a couple of flaws or a crack in the ceramic.
Could not fully throttle up for/when cutting without the saw cutting off.
Attempted to mill a log but the saw did not seem to want to stay running nor fully power when on its side in the Alaskan Sawmill.
Not a great experience and given what I've read and heard, I was a bit shocked.
I've purchased cheap chainsaws on Amazon, that had more power but shorter blades, which lasted far longer before having any issues. Even with nuts and such falling off of them, those cheap chainsaws easily outperformed this Rancher 460.
I needed a longer blade and wanted a top name brand for personal use and for volunteering as a sawyer with Team Rubicon during disaster relief operations.
This was the top recommendation in many articles.
I tried using the Amazon "Contact Us", as directed, in order to set up a replacement but the process kept circling back to the beginning, instead of actually contacting Customer Support.
Not at all what I expected
