The Husqvarna 142 was a big seller (same weight as the 137 but with a bit more power), because it's a Husky (see what the professionals use) and because of the price. This is the latest model and supersedes the 142. If you were considering a 'supermarket saw' the 240 comes out at about the same price. We offer quality, back up and enough information and advice to make you go dizzy. Once you've experienced Husqvarna quality you will almost certainly purchase more of their products.

Air Injection is a ducting system that pulls only clean air from the flywheel fan = very infrequent air filter cleaning.

Gear Driven Chain Oil Pump - chain oil is quite viscous, mechanical feed ensures a positive delivery.

Split Body - a lower vibrating mass and cool fuel.

Inertial Chain Brake - if the saw accelerates hard (jumps) due to 'kick back' or 'push back' the brake will operate due to the back of your left hand hitting it. Also, the 'shock' will operate it (even if your hand is nowhere near it). No brake is guaranteed to work, but the Husqvarna brakes are the most effective I've come across.

E-Tech Engines = lower emissions, lower fuel consumption, higher power output (this is the future for 2 strokes).

Most engines between 25cc - 35cc and some saws have this feature. Compared to standard engines they have 40% lower emissions of CO2 and NOx than the worlds strictest standards require (the California emission control laws). 50% less smoke and particulates, 30% better fuel consumption, 40% more power. All e-tech have their own unique catalytic converter and all these features come at no extra cost to the machine.
