How do you run an auto tune saw arnt you supposed run them flat out on start up
I was looking at a 560xp today, shop didn't have a 550xp in stock are they worth a look?, I think the 550 was about €60-70 cheaper, also what size bar would you get for a 560xp, they come with a 18" but can be upgraded to 20". I have an old husky 65 with a 22" bar which I'll keep and it's heavy! Sales man really pushing the 560xp over a 365, it's about €120 more, is it worth it?
The 365 is the cheapest of the 3, just under €700, the 560xp is €800, both with 20" bar and 3/8 chain, so the auto tune engines give trouble?
Personaly ,,if you are only using a saw once a month then go with a standard carb engine ,,,
I dont know why Husky have only used the auto tune on the 550,,560 and 540 top handle ,,Seems like everything above that are bigger heavy powered models are still standard carbsGood advice, if you only use a saw once a month you don't need a pro saw. It's also probably not economic. A decent semi pro saw will last you years.
I absolutely recommend Husqvarna over stihl.
I usually spend about 5 months every winter with a chainsaw in hand and it has always been a husqvarna.
We have tried a stihl a few times and every one of them has been hated because of the way they designed the front handle.
Compared to husqvarna stihl has a much more straight angled bend which makes it a lot more laborious to switch between an upright stance and tipping the saw on its side...
It might be small but when working with a chainsaw even the little things makes a big difference.
Between my father and myself we have 4 346 XPG's and we recently bought 2 550XPG.What saws do you run? It's good to support your own manufacturers.
How does the 550xp compare to the 560xp, it's 0.8kg lighter, what's it like for power with an 18" bar?
