562xp

I'm replacing the intake boot. Probably end up taking off the cylinder now also. So my question is on the second picture. There's a line on the piston and there's some metal on the edge of the intake ramp. Is this bad? Compared to tge new intake boot , the old ones mating surface gasket was...

Hi everyone, I've been lurking for awhile but don't have time to post much if at all. (I'll have to setup an intro thread or something) short version long: I used to work in a small engine shop as a kid, and am getting back into chainsaws a hobby many years later. I've recently revived an old...

Hi guys,i was wondering what is the typical amount of hours do you see on a 562xp before a major failure? A friend of mine saw a box with 3 x 2014 562xps for sale , one has a failed crank bearing 180 hours, cylinder is scrap , second saw crank case is destroyed due to bolts coming loose, again...

555 Or 562XP Yes, I know this one is a dead horse but I have a few questions. I currently have a 435, which I pretty much destroyed cutting 9 cords of oak with. That was my first saw and I learned a lot of things, especially what not to do. I bought that saw knowing this and now I ready to...

OK new to this site and I have been searching the net for possible answers. full story. bought a new 2017 model 562 xp from the dealer last year. been running a Joensered 2255 for about 3 months (it was about 6 months old when I got it and used very little). I cut firewood and clean up for...

Hi all, I'm looking for a used 562xp, preferably ported as I mainly cut above 9000ft. Just want to see what might be out there! Thanks

I'm new to the Arborist Site, did some researching, ton of reading on threads about what to buy, but it seems like that, more info I find, more stuck I get. I would like to buy new saw, moved from Illinois to the High Country Colorado 10000 ft, so altitude is a problem. I'm not a professional...

I picked up a few saws from a buddy with a tree service recently. I've been going over them slowly. I got a remanufactured mccollouch 2014 I think, it just says fr 2.0 needs a new flywheel key carb kit fuel lines etc. A old stihl 031AV so far I'm doing carb and fuel lines. And lastly a husqvarna...

Hi all, looking for information on the 550xp pto side bearing. I know there has been an update (or 2?) since the 550 and 562 has been released. I am looking at bearings and see both the 525 43 42-01 and the 525 43 42-03 bearings listed for the clutch side. Which one is the one I want? They are...

Going to buy a new firewood saw soon and am leaning toward the 562XP. But I’ve read a few reviews complaining that it doesn’t last very long and that people are going to Stihl. I had a MS362 that started giving me trouble and I don’t want another Stihl. Any thoughts? Are the durability issues...

Hi everyone, I’ve been hanging around here a while soaking up all the knowledge you guys are kind enough to share but this is my first post. I’m sorry in advance if this post is a bit long but I just want to give as much information as possible in the hopes that someone can help me. I bought a...

So with the upcoming purchase of a 562XP what are you folks using for a correctly sized scrench? My old "official" Husqvarna chain saw scrench is too %$$@!#%$ big for the tiny NGK CMR6H spark plug.

Well I almost can't believe I am listing this saw but I am going too. I have had it since late January and still haven't cut wood with it yet. I wanted to love this saw and maybe I would if I spent some time using it but it just doesn't feel right for me. From mounting a bar and chain on the...

So I've been doing research on all of the issues from the early 562XP saws and the Saw I'm getting is going to need chain brake parts and vibration mounts. That's all that was said was wrong with it, the P/C is clean, so I was wondering if there are any upgrades I should update the Saw with...

Up for sale (or trade)- A freshly rebuilt 562Xp. It got new OEM bearings and PTO side seal (integral to the bearing), new gaskets, new handle and front mount, and a new OEM clutch cover/chain brake. I have the outer dawg for the clutch cover but haven't attached it yet. It has a stock base...

before i get going, i apologize if this was already talked about and i missed it.... so i just went on Husqvarna's website. unless Husqvarna likes to create random #'s and images and put them on saws.... they very clearly have a Husqvarna 560XP saw pictured at the top of their one page. it...

Hey Guys- I'm looking for a 562 or a (preferably) 555 carcass. It can be in various stages of disrepair or a running saw. I have cash or other saws to trade, including a freshly rebuilt 390XP. Thanks!

Listing this Husqvarna 562xp. Bought it used. Had it for about a year, year and a half. Used it twice. Stored with no fuel I it. Fully emptied. The whole 9 yards. And when it was used, I use the 50:1 pre-mix trufuel (red can). Ethanol free. No issues ever. Although, today when I went to start...

Is there a way to tell by looking at the saw if the bottom end of the 562 was replaced? The seller says it was done by Husqvarna. I have seen them rebuilt, the color of the crank case gasket was green, but if it was a full factory replacement I would assume they would be black or grey. Any...
