Husky's website has the 562xp listed at 13.0 lbs. They gained a full 1/2 pound?

@SawTroll?

No they didn't - they actually weighted 12.8 lbs all the time (which used to be the specs in Europe) so I don't know what has been up with the US specs - they have been all over the place.

The specs did go up with .2 lbs a while ago though, for no apparent reason.
 
Well, if you have $11 hundred laying around, go for it. More saw than you need though. There is new one for sale here in So. WA for a nice price with a 32" on it (for $950) which is tempting me. Only problem is that the warranty is not transferable on sales of Stihl saws (except the smog crap):

Used for 20 min. Way to big for me. Downsizing to smaller saw. Saw is in perfect shape.
Not a scratch or mark on it. Not interested in trades just cash. You will save few hundred
over new. Email with contact info. bought it a month ago. Thanks
I'm sick of reading so I'm just throwing this out there. Used I agree with a bunch that the 361 is hard to beat. My 362C-M with a new 18" 33rs chain and rollomatic ES bar, fueled and oiled and probably full of sawdust crap (MINUS THE SPARK SCREEN BECAUSE ITS IN RACE MODE :laughing:) weights, 17.8lbs. I don't like the 20" balance on the 362. Depending on where the OP is from I got 461's on the shelf for $859.95 for 20" +$10 for the 25". The 461's I think are a smoking saw for the price right now. :bowdown:

All of the 60cc saws balance better with a laminated or reduced weight 20", or a shorter rsn.
It's what they are, a middle ground between limbing and bucking saws.
 
All it would have to read is.
"This is your daily reminder that the Dolmar 6100 is the best 60cc saw."
This message has been brought to you by Husqvarna and an early start on too many vodka tonics.
Vodka comes from potatoes.
They grow potatoes in Idaho.
Idahonative loves echo saws.

You be careful there

You can make vodka from anything, really. It is usually made from grain here. Also they grow as many spuds in Oregon as Idaho, but Idaho gets all the credit. Except for Ore-Ida brand potato products (very popular here). Not sure Echos are loved in I da 'ho, as much as Stihl is there or here.

They use a Dolkita (I presume a 7901) to cut the 'log' for the Portland Timbers soccer team (now US champions) every time they score a goal. I do not know why. I do not know of a single Doltmar shop in Portland. There are many Stihl shops in Portland though, and a few Husky ones.
 
What's the best saw to run a 28" bar in Aussie hardwood up a tree, by a ham fisted goon?

You mean a donk?

I shipped several 440s down undah to some guys cutting palms that thought they were the best for that. As for ham fisted, what about the Vegemite fisted?

You are just going off spec sheets, I've eaten potatoes and I've seen videos.

Yah yah... my fadder's family was from Noryee. I am genetically predisposed to being addicted to spec sheets. Kannot help it.

But in truth it is more difficult to make voddy from spuds, as they tend to ferment into more methanol (wood alcohol, poisonous) than grains do.

See here in another German p orn movie titled, "What's inside Vodka?" :

I have a serious dislike for things that are carbon filtered, I like my grog with flavour and typically avoid vodka.
 
I'll vote for the 562. Up until I got one a 70cc saw was the only class I could run a 24 inch bar on, I got a 562 3 years ago and have ran the crap out of it with a 24 and the dual dogs. My 262, 357, 362 just couldn't handle the 24. I also keep a 372 with a 24 for ground work but in a bucket or climbing every oz and tenth of a hp matter...

Filtered? I prefer triple distilled myself. The have 7 distilled voddy here now. Lately I have been chugging Tartz flavored vodka.

If you like grog with a lot of flavor, you might try this "viscous" fluid from Scotland.

Not your 60cc lager... a full body 090 porter.
