Description
Overview:
This genuine Husqvarna felling dog is a rugged metal spike that mounts to the body of the chainsaw to give a firm bite into the wood as you cut. Made from durable steel with a hard-wearing finish, it helps stabilise the saw and provides a solid pivot point for controlled, accurate cuts. It is designed for Husqvarna professional saws and fits the 266 and 268, among others. By anchoring the saw against the log, it improves feed control, reduces wandering, and supports safer, more consistent cutting in demanding work. Built to the original specification for proper alignment and tooth profile, it offers reliable fit and performance on suitable Husqvarna machines used in forestry, arboriculture, and general grounds maintenance.
