i have 2 tsumura lights and a solid and a 8 sugi light bars ,superb , tough as hell and real high quality ,will outlast most bars by 4 times probably , the steel is exact same properties and rockwell hardness on rails as each other but made in seperate factories not a conglomeration company but the replacable noses are different , the sugi is similar to oregon tips facing in towards the saw but the tsumura faces out , sugi bars have 5 rivets on the roller nose bearing and tsumura has 4 and some has 5 ,so dunno really , but anyhoo i love them both

the VI is always better , as it doesnt cause wear so much , its like WW2 aero engines that used castor oil , the VI was so high if it overheated it made a varnish effect to stop alloy transfer on them , i take apart folks saws/ strimmers etc to repair or tidy up and the pistons are usually dry once the petrol evaporates , i took apart my saws occasionally and the whole skits and crank is covered in the good oil . if i put a drop of xp oil on a table it spreads fast , the ipone motul or bel ray takes ages to move at room temp same as if i put a drop on finger and thumb and slowly spread it stays tacky , XP oil immediately separates . my opinion anyway , i have saws and never had wear or failure issues

i dont use aspen in my old saws as i have not replaced the fuel lines and carb rubbers etc very much , but i have used Aspen 4 in my newer 550 and 562 and run them at 40:1 with Ipone racing full synthetic ester based oil which has about highest VI at 100deg c 16.1 mm/s measurement with other synthetic oils motul 800 which i use too is the highest at 19 ,husqvarna xp is 7.5 !, stihl is 7.5 !

yeah my huztl one did get a tiny fines on the intake so applied thick grease on the filter and the intake and was still a tiny bit after a few cuts , so then as on previous post i did much better mods hightop cover, hightop, filter bigger carb and x torq filter intake and 385 xp intake manifold ,

still not had a a chance yet for more cutting yet , but did another wee mod too i fitted a OEM wrap handle to my 372 x torq and as the Hutztl one was a bit off line with the vibe spring had to lengthen the hole a bit and space out a couple of washers on the huztl one when assembling the saw , so hmm oh well i,l fit on the OEM handle from the 372 and fitted real good , all lined up easy ? actually is a bit thicker and has better plastic on the handle

i do use it sometimes on the newer saws as on older ones it can eventually suck out the old fuel from the lines and then can be leaks , but will plan to replace the old saws with new lines etc , i used the premix aspen but now buy the 4 stroke ones and add in the Ipone samouri racing full ester oil strawberry smell at 40:1 its used on F1 GP 2 stroke race bikes and motocross bikes which get a lot of load and abuse , its about the highest VI oil at 100deg C to be used on 2 strokes so the lubricity is superb , pulled apart a saw recently and the oil is everywhere and is real tacky, obviously after the fuel has evaporated after use , i took apart another saw a guy gave to me for a check and a couple of defects and he was using 2 stroke oil which was a red colour at 50:1 and the difference is mental ,its like comparing milk to cream lol

i usually use a file but get some damage with chains with metal in wood or stones or sand in trees low to ground so i got a ex forestry commission one from a roup and it a 533 ax reversible motor from the 1990's , needed a bit of fettling but its great , but each to their own really , depends on how much use the chains get , but mainly due to damage i use the oregon 533 and a file in use

yes its posted on hutzl farmertec builders facebook too ,i,ll be hopefully using it soon on a big elm trunk only used it on a few cuts on a 20 inch elm and then a 20inch pine tree and then a lot of pine firewood logs and then filmed a birch a few days ago before the better filter supplied , but the file is too big to upload to here 7mb is the limit , its a 48 second vid and is hd and is 240mb

Some more mods done , OEM high top cover , OEM hd filter and 372 xtorq hd filter intake with the divider removed , should have better flow and carb limiters removed as H setting better flow at high end set at 13000 4 stroking , did have it set at 13300 and was fine but set it rich for more break in

will do another mod , the airfilter is real tight under lowtop cover so might restrict airflow so ordered high top cover , felt HD big airfilter and HD Xtorq intake so much better flow ,the huztl filter is a tad loose so apply real thick grease to stop fines getting in so better lifespan with the HD setup ,

Been a bit of a delay but mods done to the Huztl 372 kit build, as before it has the 52mm BB kit on it , base gasket delete with 1184 used , woods ported and the side entry to transfer have been raised flush with cyl base to improve flow , 272 windowed piston single ring is 40 thou taller, so 40 thou off the top to 8mm in from the side to assist with transfer timing , had the open huztl muffler and huztl carb , it run real good with a 20 inch bar full chisel oregon chain 4 tanks of fuel through it still runs good ., the brake didnt seem to be real solid as it did lock but with a real pull on throttle it would spin the chain but not real fast , continued on to see if it bedded in, but was still the same so got a OEM one so was a bit shorter , and fitted easily and is rock solid now , so other mods done for fun ? , open 385 xp muffler with bigger exit (its loud) 385 xp intake boot, 385 throttle cable bracket to sort the position relating to the throttle plate angles , walbro RWJ4B from 372xtorq so is biggest venturi on that series of saws then the 372 x torq air filter intake which is a bit less round as the RWJ4 carb is bigger so it would foul the covers , if the 385 intake horn was used as its bigger so the xtorq fitted well and no fouling , then divider plate cut out , carb limiters removed for more fuel on high side. cyl cover had to be modded a bit as the 385 boot is a bit bigger compared to 372 so was fouling the cover so material removed for clearance , but not much , 385 boot is internally bigger than 372 by nearly 2mm so a taper ground out on the cyl intake to match up with intake boot the huztly choke lever fits fine but a tad longer but no issue , the 372 xtorq blue one actually fits better as it had a little kink on it but the grey huztl one is fine and smooth and fits good anyway all assembled and fired up after a few pulls , warmed up and did adjustments and tached to 13000 with high jet 4 stroking for more bedding in ,the throttle response is mental compared to the huztl carb , going to be a ripper for sure , how long it lasts , who knows ?

i got one for nearly free as a guy didnt use it much now has a HD filter kit and modded the exhaust and has inner dogs on it now too i would prefer a red one but mine is green ? it pulls real hard , even a 28inch bar through a big elm was easy and has a whine like a turbo lol

i was thinking about one years ago but got an oregon ex forestry commision one which has the reversible motor so no rolling of the cutters , not that its a big issue really but got it for £50

562 is a great saw , i love mine , most used saw i use in the mid range , will even run a 28 as it has a bigger oiler than the 560 which is a small mount bar
