Yes . Get the correct size screw driver . Remove the one screw holding it in place . Slide it out of its location . Put the screw driver away nice and tidy . :001_smile:

 

 

Undo screw and slide it out as stubby says , may help it run cooler.

Another thing I find is when you feel it's running out of fuel turn it off.. if it's sucking up vapour that can have an effect on its tuning.

Then there is the three -five minute retune of holding the saw flat out not letting off in bar deep timber cutting rings this resets the auto tune and saves you a trip to the dealers.

Some of those things may sound a faff but I think the auto tune performance is unreal, I've been final thinning in hard wood stands and was a rack ahead by lunch thinking I though I was just working faster than my colleague ...But we swapped saws for his was a 357 by the end of the day he had virtually caught up with the 560.

I think the modern saws are made to a price with too much plastic. I started the business with a used A65 and still had that saw until 2016. I wish the 242XPG's were still produced.

Starting a hot Husky is very much like making love to a beautiful woman.

Going to sound really stupid here but by removing the spark arrester will it need retuned as it would if I did the exhaust mod?
