*Coming up on having had this saw for a year....am a casual user and bought it to cut up sections for bowl blanks. Easy to start, **Bestfor.Garden** also recommend even after storage for a couple of months. Simple chain tension adjustment. Just cut up some 20" Osage Orange, including ripping bolts in half (at an angle). Like butter!*
I just bought a near new 1, However bar oil is a bit weak. Ive drilled out the bar oiling holes as the pump is high volume not pressure it fixes the problem FYI.
I always use the compression release on my 445. It prolongs the life of the pull rope. Mine starts easily when cold but not so easily when hot. It's a good homeowner grade saw but it does have some issues. The single bar bolt is prone to loosening, the air filter is a little small, and the chain oiler pumps even when the saw is idling and is not adjustable. That makes it prone to clogging.
Recommend running husqvarna bar and chain oil. This saw does not do well with cheap bar oil. I use vp racing fuels 50:1 gas. This saw is a beast. Cut up several trees over 7 years of owning it.
If your saw has "Easy Start", it won't have a decompression button. With "Easy Start", pull the start cord evenly to wind up the start spring. About half way through the pull the starter will spin the motor and it will start. Don't yank, or 'drop-start' an easy start saw.
I noticed u said it has an automatic oiler that’s non adjustable….however on mine there is a chain link with a oil drop above it that has a + and - indicator making it seem adjustable ….mine still isn’t putting out enuff oil leading to major bar wear….any help would be appreciated…thx
I've had this saw for a while with very lil use. Lately, after I run out of gas, the choke won't stay up and the saw will not start. This all happened when I brought my saw into a store and this guy fiddle with the carburetor...Would have that caused a problem? What about my choke not staying up...This part seems random.
That choke lever is connected to the carb, maybe when it was serviced the linkage was bent? Maybe put back in the wrong hole,,, obviously something has been tweeted somehow,,,
+Beards and Branches hmmm,,, I wouldn't think so, but anything is posable I guess without having eyes on it to see what's going on I can't really say.. If your near by the shop here in elgin we can take a look at it for ya
Make sure it has fuel in it, properly mixed, push the decompression button on top, pump the primer bulb a few times, pull the choke out (should automatically switch to run position as well) then pull..
Jimmy, it's best to leave these carb adjusters alone unless you REALLY know what you are doing. It's easy to lean out the mixture at high RPMs and burn up your saw.

Max CUTTING speed is 9000, max RPM is more like 13,000

That steady hum in the audio can be removed with noise-reduction software.
The owners manual sucks... this video saved me about a day of study, thank you sir!
Could you show how to replace the recoil spring?

i just got my 445 xtork and the bar doesnt hav a hole to put grease in it is that ok or how do i grease the bar.
Ive had one since 2008 and it still runs like new. Great saws. The oilers suck on them though.
So the threaded bolt in between the two bar studs, slid down into the chainsaw. Any help on how I get it out, and replace that
I bought chainsaw H445 II but i don't have decompression valve is that a other model of 445 or something else?

So how do you change the primer bulb
Nice video, short sharp and to the point! Thanks

Did you figure this out?
@@shanejohnston1253 nope
@@zachwilliams7632 so odd why they have that +/- on there
@@shanejohnston1253 I think that that same piece of plastic housing with the +/- is used on some other models that have an adjustable oiler.
IMPOSSIBLE TO START.

Would trying to pull up the choke without pulling it out cause that? I have seen quite a few guys doing that on my saw in shops.

Tell us something useful like how to get the thing to start
Make sure it has fuel in it, properly mixed, push the decompression button on top, pump the primer bulb a few times, pull the choke out (should automatically switch to run position as well) then pull..
I cannot get mine to start. I replaced the spark plug, air filter and fuel filter. Any suggestions?
check for spark. If none, you may need a new coil. Get it from Husky, not China made on e-bay. I did that and it quit working in a month.
Might be your magneto needs to be replaced?? A good 450 dollar part there 🤔
Didn't mention the high low screw? Whole reason I watched the video
