Is the T540xp on sale

[Stubby]

I love my 201 better and more power than the 200T

Hated the husky 338 and will certainly not be buying a 540 till it has been out a while.

Amazing how much flack new stuff gets from all the initial buyers expectations

 

338 is pants agreed . However our 201 is also pants and no match for the 3 200t s we have . Why is there such a difference in opinions I wonder ?

One of the main reasons is the poor ones need re-tuning. Has yours been tuned with a tacho recently?

Nothing would supprise me from husky anymore, they have gone below smack heads on my list of people you can trust;)

I have a 201t, its fine for pruning but I don't like it on take downs, and I took it to be re-tuned they said it was fine.

 

I also find I am going through more chains now

But, did they check it on the tacho?

[cl3525]

not that I know of, might have to look into that, just assumed that the dealer would know to do that

They need to be set up spot on to rec max revs otherwise they dont run right. Only way to set them up is at full working temp with a tacho. It is very critical!

 

Possibly this is whats wrong with most that people think they're flat!

Pfft dealers do the minimum! Countless times I used to take my saws in because they wouldn't idle or needed tuning, buy a inductive tach and do it yourself!

Stihl dealers are really winding me up of late. We bought 5 201's out of the 5 mine was the most sluggish, insisted on a retune (another thing they did not do a PDI!) they told me it would take 2-3 weeks as they have to send it to their specialist.... This sort of poor customer service is giving them a bad name.

 

Anyway I tweaked it myself once its fully run in I'll get them to give me a tacho for a final tune up. All I can say about the 201 is its a full on screamer easily equal to a 200t in performance just not build!

 

In short cl5325 insist on the sorting it for you, if you can do without the saw for a bit, tell them you want it running right or you money back.
