560xpg to full wrap

[TheHungrySquirrel]

Found some full wraps but can't find one with heated element, is it possible to swap the element and switchgear into the new one or do I risk loosing the heat?

You risk losing timber mate.

Why do you want one?

That saw doesn't get much use other than large and awkward trees, used a few wrap saws and love the extra position you can hold it in.

The heater element is part of the handle, it runs around the inside of the handle under the insulation it is not transferable to a different handle.

Here's a parts list with heated handle you're maybe after.

The 562xp is available with both in the US (xpgw) - except that it isn't about "full wrap", but so-called 3/4 wrap (it doesn't go under the powerhead, just on both sides and of course the top). I dislike the somewhat "plasticy" look of it, but each to their own.

 

The wrap handle isn't offered for the 560 though, which is just as well in my opinion.

 

You can of course fit the handle of the 562xpgw on a 560xpg, if you really want to.
