562xp re-released!

The point is throttle responce, and for limbing. :smile2:

You might be right, but I thought it just raised the limited rpm for a few seconds every time the throttle is opened, for faster limbing. For the price the 562's are listed for, it would be a shame if they removed that feature without lowering the price.

560xp

I know this is a 562 thread, but as a really close relative, and as there has been discussion over this model too, will send a link to a clip of a 560 in action. Koneviesti : Husqvarna 560 The 560xp was tested by this finnish machinery/equipment magazine, and this is their clip. It's narrated finnish.. Sorry! They are just telling the basic and known facts about the saw. The test team tached the saw having over 15 000 rpm! At the time of their test the saw did have the revboost, and they liked it with thick branches, but thought it being a bit needless for thin ones. The one i tested few weeks ago didn't have the feature, or then i didn't noticed it from my enthusiasm! :smile2: Hmmm.. Seems like i will be getting my Jonsered 2260 WH by february.

False alarm, I was in a hurry and didn't read the whole invoice. Credit memo for the ones I sent back. Still gonna be a wait here. Oh well don't really care at this point in the season.

I limb with a 143 sometimes.

Of course we seldom do Conifers around here.

Neither do I, but most birches have a lot of limbs! :smile2:

Had to order some parts today, pick them up tomorrow so I asked if they had the 562xp in yet, no love! Been nice to have seen one in the flesh.

Finally there are a worthy replacement for the 262xp! :msp_wink:

Oil tank capacity is slightly higher in the 562 over the 560/555, almost insignificant to say the least. 7% increase in size.
On the other hand, the oil pump IS of a higher capacity - 20% higher.

They list both XP/XPG at 12.6lbs. We know one weighs more than the other. List it high or list it low?

Looks like the xpg number is low, but I have seen the xp listed at 12.5 and 12.57 on the public US site.

Don't jump to any conclusions just yet
So far it's only worthy on paper.

My dealer said they had 562s' ordered and were expecting them any day now.

LOL. Sawtroll: the ultimate 562xp cheerleader.:wave:

What do you think of the sideways balance of the 562 -vs- the 346 xp? From specs, of course. :hmm3grin2orange:

Well guys I ran the 562 some more over the last few days and started to notice a hesitation after the saw warmed up good. If you went to wide open throttle the saw would bog for just a second and go. In the wood it had plenty of power but just had an annoying little hesitation when you revved the engine. It bothered me enough that I pulled the carb and dissassembled. The electronic metering block just bolts on to the side of the carb were the mixture screws normally are. The rest of the barb is the same as every other carb I've taken apart. The saw felt like it was running a little lean on acceleration to me so I tryed what Terry Syd suggested. I took out the spring that pushs the needle into the seat and replaced it with a shorter weaker spring from another carb. Reassembled the saw and took it out for a test run. So far so good. It removed all the hesitation after it warmed up. I did notice that the spring I took out was a lot longer than than the spring that I took out of the 357xp donor carb.[ didn't want to cut the factory spring in case this didn't work].
Anyway, just letting you guys know. Merry christmas!

i had a 262XP for 9 years best thing i ever did was sell it and buy a MS460 must admit it did keep me fit about 10 to 15 pulls to start the bloody thing no matter how you tuned it but it did cut about 50 to 60 cubic meters of hard wood a year:eek2:

 

[Terry Syd]

Good stuff. When you drop the POP you usually need to reset the H & L speed needles, with the AutoTune you will just have to run it hard in some wood for the computer to reset.

EDIT: You didn't happen to notice or measure the size of the venturi while you had it apart did you? The reason I ask is that the carb is a C1M and is the same carb on the 445/450 and the 570/576. The only differences are the venturi size.

The 445/450 has the 11mm venturi and the 570/576 has the 13.5mm venturi. I expect that the 562 is running something like a 12-12.5mm venturi.

I'm running the bigger 570 carb on my 450. The 555/560/562 may be suitable for a carb upgrade to the larger 13.5mm carb.

You said the tuning block bolted on the side of the carb. Is the carb the same as a conventional carb or are there some extra holes for mounting bolts. If it is a standard carb, you can pick up the 570 carb for about $60.

My 560xpg is the first 60cc saw I have held that is really good in that department, and much better than some 50cc saws from other brands! :big_smile:

Fits really well along with the 346xp!

The 562xp isn't here, and I would have taken the 560 anyway!

Surely! :smile2:

Question is - is the 2260 equal to the 560 or 562? The 560 is rumored to never have lost the revboost. I don't believe the 562 has, but it has been said that it doesn't have it.

The 2260 looks like it has the low filter of the 560xp, but I don't have a clue about the bar mount pattern so far.......:smile2:

The carb tuning block has three mounting screws. There are three passages between the carb body and the tuning block. The air passages for the x-torq run under the carb instead of over the carb. I'm sorry but I didn't measure the venturi. If I take it off again I'll measure it.

The user manual tells us to do that to set the AutoTune, so no mystery! :smile2:

I put the timing wheel on the 555 today. I didn't get the intake as I didn't have time to get it all apart with company coming over earlier.
