Description
Product Overview
The Husqvarna 440 18 in. 40cc Gas Chainsaw sets the gold standard for efficient, lightweight, and powerful cutting performance. Engineered as a high-performance all-around chainsaw, it is perfect for homeowners, ranchers, and landowners needing a reliable tool for felling trees, cutting firewood, and general property maintenance.
Equipped with a 40.9cc 2-cycle X-Torq engine, it delivers 2.4 horsepower while reducing fuel consumption by up to 20% and emissions by up to 60% compared to conventional chainsaws. The Smart Start® system ensures quick, effortless startups, while the inertia-activated chain brake enhances operator safety by reducing the risk of kickback injuries.
The LowVib® technology minimizes vibration levels, reducing user fatigue during extended use, and Air Injection® centrifugal cleaning removes larger debris before it reaches the air filter, extending engine life and performance. Designed with a side-mounted chain tensioning system for quick adjustments, forged 3-piece crankshaft for maximum durability, and an X-CUT® chain for superior sharpness and durability, the Husqvarna 440 is built to perform reliably in demanding conditions.
