husqvarna 562,best ported saw ever?

[Benelli777]

Next week I am sending my 562 to Mo.
To get AWOLIZED

Just hope it will rip in 18 inch wood also. Torque is king.

I am keeping the 20 inch on it that's for sure.

For smaller stuff I have my MMWS 545 that I love

I'd like to see a 'well' ported 357 against a well ported 562

I can help w/ that!

I'll be damned if mike Lee ain't got a stihl hat on!

I hear he works his saws

The 562 is a game changer.

Jason what size wood was this 562 and 372 in?

 

[jmssaws]

Jason what size wood was this 562 and 372 in?

Small wood.

 

[Keith Gandy]

Small wood.

10" ?

 

[jmssaws]

10" ?

Just working up whole trees,4" to 20"

 

[awol]

The 372 was just not quite as strong as most of the ones I've done.

Does a 562 cut well with 20" bar buried?

Yep

Does a 562 cut well with 20" bar buried?

Hedgerows does. He might have put a 24 on it.

 

[awol]

They cut well with a 24" buried in Oak, they just don't balance as well as with a 20, and the oiler is stingy. I did try a 30" full comp on the first 562 I did, and it didn't like it one bit.

I've had mine buried with a 24". Its not ideal but it keeps pulling

Mitch Weber put a 36" on his and made a video

Any oiler mod tried?

20" Techlite bars show up fairly regularly on ebay for less than $50 shipped. Balances great and makes a nice lightweight combo.

Yup..
It wears a 24"..
