I've had them both in bits. Just my opinion but you will see what I mean if you have a look at them
-
Has any one looked at the husqvarna HE3. For a start it's gearbox is a lot more heavy duty with proper casings and proper bearings! You will wear the stihl out if you going to be using it all day.
-
There is new cage material now which lasts much longer. There was a reason for 365/372 bearing failure at low hrs, that to has been resolved.
-
why not replace with the new SP33G Husqvarna Chain produced in the Huskvarna Chain factory. It really is a good combination on this little saw and there is a definite difference compared to Oregon ect. All new 435s come with this now in the UK. As long as the bar you have ordered is 050. No need for 058 on these.
-
Husqvarna RXT models only in the UK which is a shame but if there wasn't the demand then that's why they are no longer available here. Purchase from Europe or find another machine but the 555 takes some beating!
-
There are no bad ones in particular, just make sure it starts easily, ticks over Nicly and has plenty of power. Common issues, stuck or worn piston ring, mainly down to people running cheap oil. If it doesn't idle this is why in most cases. Split impulse hose Rear Av spring and bottom plate. Check the crankcase near the chain catcher for wear. Other Than that there a good saw, a cracking little engine and easily repaired if there any issues. A lot of parts are updated but if you can you want to purchase a mark 2 machine but there are plenty of mark 1s still about with little problems

This is the correct procedure as depicted by the silver sticker on the top cover. There is a new carb with a new fuel hose which is shorter and is routed away from the back of cylinder. With this fitted and this start procedure there are no hot start issues with a mechanically sound saw
-
did anyone visit the Husqvarna Museum? Huskvarna is only 10-15 mins from Jonkoping
-
Using the chain brake tool also works pretty well
-
Phahaha did they say battery or mains?
-
There is a new clutch design for 560 already. Best thing you can do is check the exhaust bolts regular. The new crankcase clutch side is aluminium now which helps prevent crankcase bolts slackening.
-
You won't be disappointed I can tell you!
-
Anyone thought theives might actually use this site to there advantage. It's not hard to find the ebay listing from other posts and if the guy that's selling it is connected to the people that stole your kit and browses this site well now they know Your onto them. Just a thought..
-
Still a cracking little engine, most of the issues are fully resolved pulse pipes and manifolds ect. Wear issues sorted unless of course its owner error
-
Stuck or worn piston ring. Doesn't need to have many hours depending on the cylinder fitted.
-
Haha that wasn't what I meant 😉
-
How to do you reset the saws you work on if your not a dealer?? You can buy the box but how do you access the firmware I wounder?
-
2017 machines have all of the older issues addressed. The idling issue is easily sorted as above it's just a firmware update. The AT12 carb sorted a lot of issues mainly down to the spring diaphragm.
-
Clutch side now made of alluminium whilst flywheel side is still magnesium. Also improved bearing cage material in the main bearings. Heat is the biggest cause of failure for the bearings which is why a good oil is so important on these engines
-
Most spares are still available for these however if it needs a deck shell you can forget it as these are no longer available so if the deck ain't solid then it's not worth a great deal. Also if it's never had transmission oil changes then there's a limit on there life to.
-
Has to be the husqvarna 525BX for me. Handle is inline with the outlet so you don't get aches in your wrist if your using it longer periods unlike any of the stihl machines. Really low vibration to 1.2m/s again much lower than the stihl. If you get any of the other 525 husqy kit it all uses the same engine so same filters etc.
-
Do you have to collect? What about a husqvarna P525 diesel rider. Choice of decks 132cm or offset 155cm. Excellent finish. Powered via a 3 cylinder Kubota with AWD and they are hand built in Sweden so the quality is also excellent. Hydraulic height adjustment if you want and you can also flip the deck for cleaning etc. If you can get away with mulching then there isn't a better rider for finish and speed. 58cm uncut circle it will go where a tractor can't! Ask for a demo as mine is fantastic!
-
As said do not use a screw in stop unless you want to fit a new piston! There really isn't much material there anymore. I normally use the impact in short bursts if there tight with pull chord and they eventually come off.
