Gidday,
I realise I'm probably asking a question that has been covered plenty of times and will be told off!! But here goes anyway. I have just bought a brand new 395 XP and leaving the Husky dealer I asked do I need to take it easy on the saw and the mechanic that had just run it up said no, just run it the same as your old saw. Which seems to be contry to what is in the hand book which says not to run at high speeds for extended periods for the first ten hours!
I told a mate of mine who is clued up on saws and he nearly had a stroke! He said the first tank should have had 40:1 mix for a start and to just limb with it for a couple of weeks or so.
What's everyone's opinion on running in a saw? It was the price of a small car so am fairly reluctant to f**k it lol I don't know what it is with some so called experts do they just don't know?:rolleyes2::rolleyes2:
Cheers Lurcher NZ.
