Who's running 592s and 585s?

Cool, let us know what you think after running it for a while

I'd be tempted to cut a couple holes in the top cover and install some frogskins.

Does it have more sauce with the filter cover off?

Yea , actually bought some to tryout

some one should measure vacuum readings inside top cover.
does the air injection keep up with air demand or would extra holes help or hurt.

Good , question

I think @Crocky28 did the foam Red Beard filter , and frogzskins cutouts , maybe he can chime in on the subject.

Even if the fw supplies X amount of air and the motor requires 2X worth of air, it’s still a wide open hole to the recoil cover along with various gaps here and there. I don’t see it being an issue. But added air from frogskins certainly won’t hurt either

smoke test. does pull in or blow away................

 

[Moparmyway]

I’ve added Frogzskinz to a few of my own saws, they definitely change the way the air enters the filter

Anybody running a 592xp got anything to recommend as a fool proof way to restart the saw when it's hot? I've got a MMWS one I bought from @TreeLife and it's a bi**h to start after I've been running it and let it sit for more than 10 minutes. I just don't have the process figured out...yet.

Yeah, just pull it over. Don't try to choke it, don't try to hot start it like an older 5 series, just pull it over.

That's all I ever did, it always started awesome hot or cold.

Yup , do it to mine no issues.

This is how I hot start all my 5 series saws . I push the decomp in, choke it, pump the priming bulb about 5 times, push the choke lever to the fast idle position and pull .

Yeah don't do that with a 592. They designed them to be started the way i described. After the saw was started and run I could typically put it down for 10-15 minutes and not have to do anything more than pull it twice at most to start it.

Literally the best starting saw I've ever owned out of the probably 60 I've had. If it wasn't started and running from cold with 3 pulls, number 4 got her going.

Don’t use the decomp for hot starts on the autotune saws if you can avoid it.

Good advice, after you said this before I quit and it makes a lot of difference for sure

What is the reasoning for not using the decomp on hot starts?

I believe it’s because it can potentially bleed off too much compression and actually make it more difficult to start
