  • Today I add to the chain saw fleet 2 new saws! A new 3120xp and the all new 562xp mark ll chain saws! The 3120xp was at a price I could not pass up and the new 562xp fills a void in the saws that we have and should be a great mid-size saw for us to have for tree jobs and for my aging old carcass!

    Funny how people think what is a fast saw. Dad had a tree fall across his lane and needed help cutting it up. I took one of my 562xp saws to his house. He told me it was a fast cutting saw. So I guess my 562 is dad approved. Enjoy The Journey - Cheers

    Neat video. The D-shaped starter handles usually are provided on the fire department roof saws so you don‘t have to take gloves off to start them. In my research if you run a decent oil minimum 40:1 on the 5 series and then gut the muffler after warranty you‘ll get good life out of them. Just listening to that 562 you can hear how restricted the exhaust is.

      @@InTheWoodyard The manufacturers know. It's the EPA that has their hands tied. Ask Scott about the bearing failures on the 5 series. He knows. Any good saw builder knows. Just tryin' to help ya out. Anyone that's been running saws for awhile has noticed that the motors are using less fuel and as a result oil now than they did back in the 90's. Strato charging makes it even worse as those motors likely are less lubricated at 32:1 than an older saw was running 50:1. Less fuel used = less oil for the same amount of work being done. From the builder who ported my saws. "I have several ported 5 series saws on a tree crew in Montana that have over 1000 hours on them running a heavier oil ratio and they’re fine. In fact, out of several hundred 5 series that I have ported, I have never had one come back for bearing issues. And that is because you guys are all running more oil". 50:1 is for emissions, not for saw longevity, period.

    i have like a 2 year old but made in 2020 or 21 . i think its a hybrid to the 562 mark2. its a great saw, but doesnt really like frozen logs. i suspect that the chain speed is so high , it doesnt drop into the kerf fast enough. making it feels like its not cutting right. thats when you switch over to a stihl or a bigger saw with lower chain rpm. i really want to try the 572 .i'm about sold on switching brands completely. on a tornado clean up, we were running the 562 against a 362 stihl and the husky was out running the stihl, in warm wood.

    Todays pointless info.
    Outside north America they sell a 560xp
    Same saw as a 562 but a small bar mount pattern.
    .
    But they did sell a very small number of Johnson-reds in north America that are the equivalent of a 560
    .
    I think you'd get more use out of the old 3120 with a 32" bar.
    Probably get it just about under 30lbs with a light bar.
    But the reality is, its a darn big saw. And a 90cc saw works just as good on a 32" and far far lighter.
