560xp recoil

[bob]

Hi

Pin is bent is this a known fault covered by warranty

Saw is 12 months old but minimal use

Ivehad this problem on my 560xp several times. Mine has been replaced under warranty everytime. Even if it's not in your case the spindal is very inexpensive

It's common I've been through about 3 of those this year. It seems to happen when you don't use de comp whilst starting.

Think they are about £10 to replace I did fleece my dealer for one under warranty. You can only ask to see there response.

As said use de comp . Not coz you are not hard and tough . Coz it save this happening . . There was an updated one . Don't know if you have the latest one ? Not really strong enough really . Like the rear a.v. spring on the T540 . Still; cracking saws though . I always use the decomp so not happened to me yet .....

Anyone know if husky are working on an upgrade for that av spring on the 540? Mine's fine but seems to be a common fault.

Well have sent an email to who I bought it from so will see what they say.

Shame the top cover on 346 is not resistant to dropping logs on and breaking as need to order another.

Adjusting my working method is already in progress.. not done it so far but it's been a difficult habbit to break, interrupting muscle memory isn't easy haha.. just out of curiosity is it a full drop or does it still bend if you slow the decent with your hand?

It minimizes the tendency for the spring to take a side shock load . My second one is not as bent .
