Durable Engine Built for Long Life
The 240E's engine has been built to withstand years of use. It uses a three-piece crankshaft, which has been forged and compressed for superior durability. Also, the chainsaw's centrifugal air cleaning system helps preserve engine life by removing harmful debris before it reaches the filter.
Easy, Effortless Startup
With the 240E, you won't have to waste precious minutes trying to start the engine. The chainsaw uses a combined choke/stop control, which allows for easy engine starting and reduces the risk of flooding. It also has a specially optimized fuel pump, which keeps the fuel lines clear and helps facilitate startup.
Ergonomic Design Reduces User Fatigue
The 240E has a lightweight frame that minimizes strain on your body, even after extended use. The chainsaw's shape, which includes a seven-degree offset handle and contoured body, helps minimize fatigue. The chainsaw also keeps vibrations to a minimum, thanks to Husqvarna's Low-Vib technology, which makes the chainsaw easier on your joints.
The 240E is backed by a two-year manufacturer's warranty.

Follow instructions for starting and keep the chain well oiled, even if the oiler gets gunked up. 24 of 27 people found the following review helpful: By Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Husqvarna 240E 16-Inch 38.2cc X-Torq 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw With Smart Start (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio) I bought this saw for my husband because I felt he needed a lighter weight saw since he uses one quite a bit on the farm and he isn't getting any younger. He immediately tried out the saw (he was used to a 21" cutting bar) and loeved it. To use his words"That saw cut through those trees like butter. He used it to clear fallen trees off our 375 acre farm and to do the "gin" work around our home. We had a very bad ice storm last winter and had many down trees to saw up to be moved. He loves the power and how easy it starts. He said to rate this 5 stars at least! 14 of 16 people found the following review helpful: By This review is from: Husqvarna 240E 16-Inch 38.2cc X-Torq 2-Cycle Gas Powered Chain Saw With Smart Start (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio) I bought this saw and replaced it after the first week of light use. I thought for the price, this little husky would be an ok saw for light home use. You get what you pay for and this saw is just way too cheaply made and designed. A couple big problems with this very cheap saw. First Husqvarna's chain axcess is very difficult on all thier saws. To clean or to replace the chain, it takes forever to get the cover off due to the chain brake design. Second to get to the air filter on this saw you have to take the whole top cover off. Again takes a while. 5 screws that want to strip out. Third there are no dawgs to hold the saw in place when sawing a log/tree. This is a toy saw. For just a little more you can get a real saw that will last forever. In case your wondering, I got a new Stihl MS270. Love it. Yes it was twice the cost but it's so so so much better. Super easy to work on and almost twice the power...Read more |
