First Husky, 254, Need Advice
Hey y'all - I grabbed a used 254 Husqvarna. I have no previous experience with Husky. The saw was a good deal and looked to be in good shape.
The chain seems like it was never sharpened, just old and a bit dull - Oregon chain
The bar was in rough shape. Edges had a big lip, it was gummed up and dirty. I filed down the edges, cleaned everything up. Nose sprocket seems good and smooth.
Thing is, I don't know if this bar is proper for this saw. I'm also looking to run a 20 inch bar on this for bucking firewood - jack pine, birch, larch, poplar.
Do you know what a recommended bar and chain from husky would be, or do you prefer Oregon stuff?
Thanks.
