592XP info and a surprise

[BK13]

Mr Carr is an incredibly talented and great guy, as is Randy. I was merely having a little fun with both of them. Nothing else implied, I have nothing but the most respect for both gentlemen.

plus, I doubt Randy is short of saws to massage…

I'm absolutely buried with saws.

Pic?

Did you run it stock yet?

It’s raining here. And the stock clutch cover won’t even clear a 9 pin. I’m going to have to cut back this plastic bumper.

 

[RI Chevy]

Nice sir. You going to run a short bar on it?
I just assumed you would test run it in stock form using 7 or 8 pin rim. 28" bar or something along those lines. 3/8 or. 404. I wasn't even thinking short bar. Just me. Lol
Carry on...

You’re buried now I can just imagine when this one hits the market?

I don’t have any large test wood so I’ll run a large sprocket to load the saw heavily.

 

[RI Chevy]

I hear you.

Can’t like that

 

[bradb123]

Don't worry Shaun , I'll load the saw when I get it . I will use the same set up as I use on my srcarr52 395xp . 36'' -404 full comp. full chisel .

 

[Funky sawman]

I’ll just leave this here.

Junk!!!!!! Ain't got a full wrap on er

Oh you westerners and your full wraps!

 

[srcarr52]

Oh you westerners and your full wraps!

It's for better sideways balance!

^^^ Firstly it would depend on if I liked the saw. (Nothing to do with bolt-on's) Then it would depend on where you are using it and what exactly for,, No! As to say, I may not buy a heated model just because it's -40. There are many more things to factor in.

Wrap Handles definitely have their place and their time .

Hello John. 'FULL' is not in our vocabulary.

'Plastic'.. you talkin' about the ruber flap? Pull it out for a test. Makes for a cool Rooster-tail.

It's for better sideways balance!

Now not to be confused with balance from the side, of course. Husqvarna couldn't always get that right from each handle. No, it's for flipping the chain back into the lower bottom rails on derails from the outside. Figured that trick out?..from either side.

You going to port that baby up, Shaun? Obviously, eh

Yeah, it's in there at the right weight to be a Faller's saw in places.. Especially these days with the light weigh bars. Mostly it will be a stump saw or a mill saw. I couldn't imagine using it in Europe enough to ever justify it as a sometimes-falling- saw, never mind with a wrap. Not every situation can you avoid the back-bar position when falling with a wrap handle.

We also need to understand that state requirements by law in British Columbia(and most other places in Canada where they log) only allow full wraps for use in logging or forestry. It is considered a safety feature/requirement. BC has a rather unique no fault insurance system for workplaces. Part of it was due to the state regulating safety heavily.
It is easier for Husqvarna and Stihl to put a full wrap on nearly everything headed to the PNW than split the markets between Oregon, Washington, Northern California and British Columbia. Besides, most fallers in the PNW appreciate the advantage a full wrap gives, and have been using them for quite some time.

That’s interesting I did not know that because I’m from the southern states but thanks for the heads up
