    It is .325 (.325"), not 3.25. To your question, there is only one way to find out what works best for you, in your wood - try the different options.
  2. SawTroll
    You can of course use whatever pitch and sprocket size (within reason) you want on both - just swap the clutch drum when needed.. .325x7 , that the 560xp comes with in Europe, is meaningless though!
  3. SawTroll
    Yes, but not only that, they make the Jonsered saws as well!
  4. SawTroll
    Not exactly - the real differenses are just the bar mount, higher air filter/cover and a little more weight as a results. The oiler is the same, and the big spikes and wraps are add-ons also on the 562xp. A lot of people in the US wish the 560 was availiable instead of the 562, and Husky loose sales to the Jonsered 2260 ("same" as the 560) because of it.

    With Stihl, it actually some times takes years, not months. On the flip side, with the 560-series, one batch of a few hundred 562xp saws made around week 27 2011 reached the US before the 560xp appeared in numbers anywhere that I know of on this side of the pond. However, those saws almost immediately were recalled, for reasons that likely had to do with the EPA-related paperwork.....

    I had ordered it about 9 months earlier, so I got one from the first batch that came to Norway.

    My 560xpg is 2011 4300071, so from week 43 2011..
  8. SawTroll
    I tend to believe that is the case - but I can't prove it.....

    The 1106 production did NOT "go" to Brazil when the 051/076 did - that's a fact!
  10. SawTroll
    A som,ewhat interesting question is where they are made by now, Germany or Brazil. The latest firm inform,ation I have on the matter is from 2005 or so, when they still were made in Germany - but rumors say that production has been moved moved to Brazil....
  11. SawTroll
    I basically agree with all that, and the 242xp had a higher max power output as well. To me, the above was a disappointment, when the details started to come out.... What likely matters the most though, if how it feels and performs compared to the MS241.
  12. SawTroll
    Well, Husky owns Zenoah,and the 543xp is made by Zenoah. Zenoah will have their own version, GZ-4300, and there will be a GZ-3900 as well.
  13. SawTroll
    No doubt about that - and you can of course turn the heating on and off as you wish.
  14. SawTroll
    No way around xpg up here, specially with arthritis in the hands.
  15. SawTroll
    That does of course depend on the intended use.
  16. SawTroll
    Could well be - as far as I know, Stihl pay royalties to Husky for the use of the early AT technology in the M-tronic.
  17. SawTroll
    Yes, it basically just means it is not the standard version (or a standard heated version).
  18. SawTroll
    I'd take it back to where I bought it, specially if it is a new saw under warranty.

    How to check rpm

    SawTroll replied to Kevm's topic in Chainsaws

    None of that happened in my case, but I bought it with a saw, from a dealer I knew from a US chainsaw forum.

    How to check rpm

    SawTroll replied to Kevm's topic in Chainsaws

    I have a PET 2000 from 2007, that always performed flawlessly. It cost me about 100 USD from a US Dolmar dealer back then.

    That's how most current tachs work.

    I'd still supect the carb more than anything else - what exactly was "OK" with the carb, just the firmware/software or the carb itself? When there are similar issues with the Husky 560 family AT saws, it seems the issue always is the carb itself, not the AT.
  23. SawTroll
    Not so odd really, as the "C" suffix is used in connection with several different features in Stihl model numbers.
  24. SawTroll
    He obviously missed that!
  25. SawTroll
    At least a larger carb and muffler mod, unless noise level is a serious consideration. I believe the carb for the 372xpXT could be a good starting point, with a 19mm + venturi vs. 17.5.....
