GENERAL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Stop switch

Use the stop switch to switch off the engine.

Mufﬂer

The mufﬂer is designed to keep noise levels to a minimum and to direct exhaust fumes away from the user.

WARNING! The exhaust fumes from the

!engine are hot and may contain sparks which can start a ﬁre. Never start the machine indoors or near combustible material!

In areas with a hot, dry climate there is a high risk of ﬁres. These areas are sometimes subject to government rules requiring among other things the mufﬂer must be equipped with an approved type of spark arrestor screen.

CAUTION! The mufﬂer gets very hot during and after use. This also applies during idling. Be aware of the ﬁre hazard, especially when working near ﬂammable substances and/ or vapours.

WARNING! Never use a saw without a

!mufﬂer, or with a damaged mufﬂer. A damaged mufﬂer may substantially increase the noise level and the ﬁre hazard. Keep ﬁre ﬁghting equipment handy. If a spark arrestor screen is required in your area, never use the saw without or with a broken spark arrestor screen.

Cutting equipment

This section describes how to choose and maintain your cutting equipment in order to:

•Reduce the risk of kickback.

•Reduce the risk of the saw chain breaking or jumping off the bar.

•Obtain optimal cutting performance.

•Extend the life of cutting equipment.

•Avoid increasing vibration levels.

General rules

•Only use cutting equipment recommended by us! See instructions under the heading Technical data.

•Keep the chain’s cutting teeth properly sharpened! Follow our instructions and use the recommended ﬁle gauge. A damaged or badly sharpened chain increases the risk of accidents.

•Maintain the correct depth gauge setting! Follow our instructions and use the recommended depth gauge clearance. Too large a clearance increases the risk of kickback.

•Keep the chain properly tensioned! If the chain is slack it is more likely to jump off and lead to increased wear on the bar, chain and drive sprocket.

•Keep cutting equipment well lubricated and properly maintained! A poorly lubricated chain is more likely to break and lead to increased wear on the bar, chain and drive sprocket.

Cutting equipment designed to reduce kickback

WARNING! Faulty cutting equipment or the

!wrong combination of bar and saw chain increases the risk of kickback! Only use the bar/saw chain combinations we recommend, and follow the ﬁling instructions. See instructions under the heading Technical data.

The only way to avoid kickback is to make sure that the kickback zone of the bar never touches anything.

By using cutting equipment with ”built-in” kickback reduction and keeping the chain sharp and well-maintained you can reduce the effects of kickback.

Bar

The smaller the tip radius the lower the chance of kickback.

372XP EPA II, 365 EPA I specifications

The Husqvarna 365 EPA I and 372XP EPA II are two powerful chainsaws designed for serious woodcutting enthusiasts and professionals alike. Known for their robust performance, advanced technologies, and ergonomic design, these models are built to handle demanding tasks with ease.

The Husqvarna 365 EPA I is celebrated for its reliability and efficiency. It features a high-performance X-Torq engine that reduces fuel consumption by 20% and emissions by 75%, making it an environmentally friendly choice. The engine delivers impressive power output, ensuring that the saw can tackle tough cuts without compromising performance. Weighing in at just over 12 pounds, the 365 provides a perfect balance of power and maneuverability.

One of the standout features of the 365 is its Air Injection centrifugal air cleaning system, which helps to keep the air filter cleaner for longer periods. This results in reduced maintenance and improved performance, allowing users to focus on their cutting tasks rather than worrying about frequent cleaning. The chainsaw is also equipped with an adjustable oil pump, providing the user with the ability to control lubrication for better chain life and efficiency.

On the other hand, the Husqvarna 372XP EPA II takes performance to the next level. It boasts a larger displacement engine than the 365, offering enhanced power for professional applications. With the same X-Torq technology, it combines power and fuel efficiency, making it a great tool for heavy-duty tasks such as felling large trees or bucking heavy logs.

The 372XP is designed with an emphasis on ergonomics, featuring a slim body and excellent weight distribution. This makes it comfortable to handle, even during prolonged use. The chainsaw also comes with an innovative Smart Start system, which reduces resistance in the starter cord, ensuring easier starts every time. The adjustable oil pump feature is retained, allowing for precision control over the amount of oil delivered to the chain.

Both models reflect Husqvarna's commitment to quality and innovation, featuring durable components built to withstand the rigors of professional use. With their combination of advanced engine technology, design ergonomics, and ease of use, the Husqvarna 365 EPA I and 372XP EPA II remain top choices among chainsaw users looking for reliable performance and longevity. Whether you're a seasoned professional or a dedicated amateur, these chainsaws provide the power and efficiency necessary for a wide range of cutting tasks.
