everybody who uses theese wedges, call them a game changer.

It definitely looks great for putting a lot of trees on the ground in a hurry. I could see an application for fire crews or clearing work.

Considering the price, nipping that wedge with a saw would be a big no-no.

Have you used an impact wedge to fall against a lean or drop large diameter trees?

How do you think that 564xp compares to a Stihl 400?

Any starting issues with the Husky? We work at 6000-10000’ (1800-3000 meters) and have a lot of starting problems with 5-series Huskies.

I’ve thought about building those wedges.

Right up there with LW 42” bars

Actually I do have everything together to finish the smaller test bars - and got a deal on a couple 42”

I noticed Husqvarna USA has the 564xp listed as coming soon with starting price $1099.99 and the G version starting price $1,179.99. Stihl USA site has no mention of an MS400.1 at all, just the current one and the MS362.

And they won’t probably list the 400.1 till next spring

Any listing for a full wrap version?

They will probably sell it without the full / 3/4 wrap, and sell the wrap kit separately.
That's pretty much how they always do.
I'm going to get the xpg wrap for the one I ordered.

Price isn't bad. Might have to spring for one.

Your guys are more lucky then us, 1550$ in Norway + VAT.
I bought a 540 mk3 this year, but my last new chainsaw was back in 2012, so 1550 + VAT is acceptable

you can drop bach leaning trees with that wedge.

not used to drop large diameter trees.

but should go too. lot of guys here using 2 of theese wedges at the same time for hard back leaning trees.

they are expensive, but when you have nevermore swing your axe to wedge over a tree.. trust me its more than worth.

Why not used on large trees?

 

[Maintenance Chief]

Why not used on large trees?

I think it's the 15ton capacity of the wedge? Liability lawyers are lurking!

They make larger ones like 25 ton
