The Husqvarna "Wobble"?

[B440]

I noticed this wobble, for lack of a better word, the first time on Mattyo's saw while using it at a gtg a long time ago, but I brushed it off as just something funky with the chain. Now I'm watching the video below and it's very pronounced on the saw with the pipe. Skip to 0.25 to see it. There are other vids by Snow X with a non-piped saw doing the same thing.

Is this something that only happens on big saws with outboard clutches? Or only specific to Huskies? I have/had sub-52cc outboard clutch saws that do not have this issue.

Never seen anything like that before.

Gotta be the chain. Or adrenaline?

That's definitely the chain. Super aggressive on the Rakers will act like that.

I think the fella running the saw has some shakes going on. He does it in another video of theirs also

Guy is shivering cold lol

Is it wobbly at idle?

My huskies don’t do that None of them

You guys are way behind the times. That's the newest way to improve cut times. The fore and aft sawing motion is so 2015.

Is that a power pole they're cutting?

Slop in the linkage...

Time to see a Dr, D?

Im guessing either serious chain chatter from really low rakers or the operator?
Even when my husky had a snapped av spring it didnt do that.

Hardly?

Looks to be the operators doing for whatever reason. I've noticed sometimes on bigger saws holding the top handle dead centre you can get a little side to side wobble up if you haven't had ya weet bix but it usually settles once the bar is fully down in the cut and you have more control.
With the AV the way it is the chain/bar would have to be doing some extremely violent jumping around to transfer that much wobble back to the operator.

Whatever it is it's bizarre.

That’s definitely the operator.

Not diagnosing anyone here, but with a family full of Parkinson's disease, this looks like the operator is causing the movement. Whatever it's is with the guy, I feel for him, really sucks to live out life with an unsteady hand.

My cuts aren’t that bad but the shakes I get caused by my stroke cause some interesting cuts. Can’t remember the last time I made a good perpendicular cut.

After watching the second video it does look like operator induced.

Couple good ol’ boys having fun with hopped up saws
