HUSKY 560XP niggles

[Backcut 89]

Bought a 560xp on a 68dl from my local husky dealer the other day to replace my tired 365, i got it for full time hand cutting work.

Good saw, light, ergonomic and powerful. The only drawback i have found so far is a slight delay in pickup from time to time, it has a little "blllluuu" when you activate the throttle trigger before it picks up. Just wandered if anyone else has this problem???

 

maybe i am jumping to conclusions too soon as i have only fired 13 tanks throught it, i just didnt expect it from a new saw.

Sounds like it is slightly lean on the L screw - does it improve once the saw is warm? Get your dealer to give it a tweak - assuming you can do such things with these new saws:001_rolleyes:

Ive had the same thing happen on myn occasionally, when you pull the throttle theres a momenterry blurr like you said but after that its fine, maybe its the autotune in the saw, i did have trouble with myn cutting out, someone said to me that huky have released a revised version of the 560, you had any other problem?

 

Spudulike the saw comes with a micro proccesor that tunes the saw automaticaly

Sounds like the chip needs to be re-mapped:001_rolleyes: looks like I will need to swap the £0.50p screwdriver for £1500 laptop and ancillary software/hardware to fix saws now - what a life, they call this progress!

no other problems yet mate no, its running great revs out really well, and its lovely to use trimming out, just that little liggle is annoying, like you say could just be the autotune thing

it does it at all running temperatures

i was in the workshop of a rather large tree firm today and was amazed to see no less than 5 broken 560's. dont think i will look at one for a long time . on the plus side we have had the T540 on trial for the last 3 weeks and i must say i will not be buying another 201T ! infact as soon as the T540 is for sale i will be selling the hardly used 201T (AKA - paper weight/door stop) !!

They do seem quite keen on breaking break bands from what i have seen

Think I may stick to my Jonsered 630 - it will still be running in 20 years time......and tuneable with a screwdriver:thumbup:

so far it has been fine apart from this glitch touch wood and all that, 5 all broken doesnt give me much confidence lol
