New saw, 562XP full wrap.

[phil21502]

10-4 new I've seen a few sets for this saw out there

 

[Roll Tide]

My set came in today. They look like a medium sized set. I can post a pic later if anyone would like to see them on a std 562.

Id like to see them.

LOL, it won't be this week, sorry. Back to work tomorrow, Monday is my day for saw testing, and today it was just crap, the guys I go out with cutting they quit real early too.

I'm eagerly awaiting vids of both your new 562 and the BB395.

562XPW Dawgs. I noticed they are as tall as the 576 large dawgs, but not near as deep. The kit is super nice with good hardware. Notice the slight RF corner saw elevation.

Nice. Looks like you left the standard alum chain catcher on there, I'd remove that. Just me though. Those spikes look good, not huge and annoying but better than stock

I never even noticed it. It'll be gone. :msp_smile: Now to find a silver paint guard! lol

edit: I just discovered the 562 factory dawg will replace the 550 dawg and give 1/2" extra depth. Bark vs. silver paint, bark wins.

Looks good and they are nice and fat too, definitely won't bend.

You sure you don't have to mod the holes a little bit?

First things I did after getting all my less than 70cc saws was to remove the dawgs and the spark arrestor (on those that had one).:msp_smile:

I only did a side to side visual and the c-to-c bolt spacing LOOKS the same. I'll go to the shop now and see!

 

[Tzed250]

Nice Jeff! Do you think that inner spike would bolt up to the 550?

Durrr... If I would have kept reading. I think I hear the short bus coming...

You are correct my friend. There is .075" difference in bolt spacing. But only a minor inconvenience.

Cool , i to have a lonely 562 factory spike , i wonder if with some work, if we could have dual spike 550's? Naw i will put that spike in the 550 though. Excellent eye my friend :msp_thumbsup:

Oh, I'm sure you are. I can't wait either. Sucks when there is no wood around.

I checked the XPW dawg kit on my 550 and it wasn't a simple bolt on, but very close. I didn't do any measuring. Then again nothing ever seems to go smoothly for me so before I flat out said you were wrong I wanted to be sure lol, thanks for checking! XPW kit is far too big for a 550 lol I was just checking the matchup
