I just got thru watching that! Pretty darn cool...
Nice Update!update on the new 562xp ...
Only a few tanks of gas through and just switched to 40 to 1 - 93 octane and semi-synthetic mix - no problems ... no hiccups ... smooth and angry in the cut.
Neighbour had about fifteen or twenty, 30" to 40" big fat Fir butts on the ground - Power line crew cleaned up all the tops and branches but the neighbours old 16" saw couldn't touch any of those big knotty butts even on a good day, and most were too heavy for one man to throw around, many were far too knotty to hand split with maul and sledge, so he asked me to help him split, carry and move them. He asked if my splitter might work - I said sure with some back grunt work manhandling them into place, but instead, I'll saw them up for you into small chunks! That's when he looked at me like I was nuts . I thought it looked like a nice little workout for the new saw to dial her in some more!
A full tank of gas noodled all of them into easily lifted pieces. Way faster and less back work than my splitter would have been at that stage.
The 562xp has a very positive attitude. No whining, moaning, or the slightest hesitation, it just ate the Fir from every direction, cross grain, with the grain, through knots, like a hungry beast. Did I mention that I love this saw!
During the frenzy of noodles and saw dust flying around, I distinctly remember looking over and seeing my neighbour with his jaw hanging half open.

I guess we all have to be careful of our "internet sources".

The tips and sprockets were blowing apart.I have two of the 20 inch techlite's. Neither one has given me any trouble yet. I don't use them commercially though. Where they delaminating or something?
