Huskyboy meets the ms462c

[huskyboy]

Hello? Was huskyboy off yesterday?

Lol I was working on stuff in the shop, rain yesterday.

Did they change to spark plug on this so the old scrench doesn't fit it?

I’m gonna check now.

 

[huskyboy]

Takes same scrench as a 562. Smaller plug.

Awesome. I've been carrying around another stihl scrench as a backup and realized yesterday they looked off.

Edit: looks like 562 nut is 16mm and standard stihl nut is 19mm. Bummer I have to carry two different tools now in the field...

Careful. You'll hurt someone's butt.

I’d think the husky guys would be ok with a 4.8hp saw loosing to a 6hp saw, nothin to be ashamed of. Just wanted to see how they stacked up in the real world.

The 462 is no slouch, that's for sure

Oregon EXL I filed.

Definitely not! Hot out of the box like a 562.

 

[Catman]

Nice to see that somebody knows how to run a chainsaw for a change!

 

[huskyboy]

Actually it was the Oregon “powercut” chain according to the box. Not sure the difference between it or exl. Might be the same. Good stuff anyhow. Nice hook out of the box, better than lgx.

Thanks sir! I try.

 

[Catman]

I believe EXL and power cut are one in the same.

I am sure your Hooskie 365xt is not stock though...

Bone stock and it ain’t mine

 

[RI Chevy]

Hmmm.

 

[huskyboy]

Hmmm.

Lol I tuned it and cleaned the airfilter that’s it. It was sitting in our shop out of commission due to a broke brake handle and choke lever. I replaced those with parts from the graveyard.

 

[friendlywithbears]

You were right, after a lot of bucking bigger logs, I'm not overly impressed with the stock max oiler output, so I've punched the pin too.

What size bar you running?
