Nice video man, glad your starting issue was solved, i run the 562, 572 and last fall i got a 592, definitely love my huskys, to me they are well balanced machines, it is lighter than the 395. The 28" bar is what i run. Happy cutting brother keep up the good vids
I just got a 562 about 6 weeks ago and was amazed at the power of this little saw. I guess I was to used to my 455 and 460 thats all I have run in my firewood business for 15 years wish I knew how much faster the bigger saws are I may be going back to the saw shop and picking up a 592xp and retire my 455 and 460. thanks for the video
Thanks for the update and review. I'm glad someone who is a professional and qualified is reviewing, rather than a hobby guy who cuts 20 cords of wood a year. Not even a ported 500i would match a 592. I know apples and oranges. And thats coming from a stihl fan. I would like to see some long videos. Like a tank of gas from the fellers perspective.
Ok I can do something like that. Thank you for the feed back. I had a young feller working for me a couple years back and he was bragging up the 500i. The next time I saw him he was running a 395.
@@elijahmcgregor9193I wouldn't say Stihl has 80cc because Husqvarna has the 585xp and Husky got the top handle market now to with the new T540 Mk3 it's puts my 200t to shame and it's not even broken in yet
I love your channel! You are a real pro man. I am so impressed looking at your skills, not only cutting timber but your way of making videos as well, greetings from a retired swedish logger 👍😀
This will be my next saw. Have a 365 that's been my workhorse for years but need a little more power for the walnuts and hickory. Looking for lighter as I'm getting weaker in my old age . Also have my Rancher 460 but other than bucking rounds its not for felling. Big fan of the channel, actually picked up quite a few tips.
Really good tuned engines iv never had to use a primer..fatten your low speed up a little bit it will start even better. It did bog a few times when you hit the throttle . It may even need the high fattened up a bit but im guessing just the low screw if you do the high just a smidge. I tune all by sound so it is hard for me to explain so im just giving increments to adjust.
It is a great saw!!! these are the issues i have had, primer bowl was unplugged after a few hours of running the kill switch would not stop saw and i would have to choke it off, switch was recalled and the dogs that engage to start the saw are made of plastic so the dealer recommends always using the decompressor as well as pulling the cord a few inches before shutting off so the cord does not pull against the case when the saw shuts down. Otherwise its been without issue
I like your channel’s content and concept. I also enjoy your interaction with some of the trolls that find their way here. The Stihl discourse with Lee as an example lol. Keep up the good work👍🏻
The trolls are hard for me to understand, I won’t participate in to much trash talking as it’s a waste of time. I’m knowledgeable about logging and certain chainsaw topics but I stay in my own lane. It’s always good to hear from you!
Another excellent video. Pretty happy with any video that has to do with the ins and outs of logging. Alot goes on and much is never known about. These videos give people insight into the world we work in. I would like to make more videos myself. Most the time(99%) i forget to take anything to record it. Always thinking about the next tree to fell or job. Keep the content rolling in. I will keep watching! Keep it safe out there man! Have a excellent rest of the week.
New subr here. Love the great video content and friendly presentation. Great job man. I too have been a huge 395 fan, but have been watching a few 592 comparison videos lately. Really enjoyed yours. And the fuel bulb fix was a bonus for sure. Thank you very much my friend! Happy cutting
The content is appreciated. An unbiased well informed perspective is hard to find these days so thank you. I especially like the techniques used to drop trees in different conditions. Have you tried the husqvarna 585? I have heard excellent reports about them as well but information is scarce regarding real world use in a commercial environment.
I like most of the 3 series saws but they all should have come with a tube of locktite! I have just had to Helicoil my 353. I cut firewood and tinker with saws. So I would like to see a bit of saw maintenance and firewood production along with all your normal content.
Excellent review! Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I currently run a ported Husky 390xp (great saw) but have been contemplating buying a 592xp if the wife OKs it 😅.
@@MountainMetal When she threw me her pants & said " can you fit in those", I replied "no". She said thats why I wear the pants in this relationship. 🤣🤣🤣 Better to share everything than wind up with half or less in divorce court.
Fatten the low speed up . Turn the low screw counter clockwise a 1/8 th of a turn. Basically half of a quarter turn. Just a smidge . If you can afford it get a rip saw 592xp 😊 cool video i love splitting wood to because i love burning in winter. Man the feal of a hot radiant heat is awesome on coold days.
592 runs awesome, first ones to come out had a issue with a fuel line. That was the problem, as far as ripsaw I have nothing against them but a ported 592 is a waste of money if your cutting hardwood. It’s already bouncing off the limiter with a seven pin sprocket.
@Good.Fellers I agree with you there. I don't see the point of porting the 592 as your gains in cutting speed won't be much. It makes me since to port a smaller saw like the 550 XP MK II to really see a gain in performance.
I have a fairly new 372 and 395 so it will be a bit before I would require a replacement . Out here In the east I usually use a 550xp and 261stihl for most of my cutting, the saws are just a lot lighter .
Nice video, interesting on thw comments aboit weight vs 395. Ive just picked up a 394 for my channel and it doesnt seem heavy for what it is. You have a good mix of content, i always like falling tips, and im always interested in chain sharpening too. My current favourite topic of conversation is why dont husky make an 80cc saw.. would you be interested if they made a kind of big bore 572 with power in between the 592 and 572? So yeah, a 500i rival.. Living the channel dude, and how fast your growing shows others do too! 👍
Thank you for the kind words. I’m glad your enjoying the channel. 394 is awesome saw I’ve owned several over the years. I would be interested in a rival to the 500i based solely off of weight. I wouldn’t trade the power of 592/395 for a lighter less powerful saw. I’ve been around the 500i but never owned one. It seams to me to be closer to a 572 then a 592. So honestly unless some awesome saw builder soups up a 80cc to run like a 90cc it’s basically not something I’m interested in.
@@Good.Fellers yeah it seems the 500i needs a pipe to wake it up.. what's your views on the 572? Light but not enough power? Did you ever run 288xp's or 390's?
@walkerscountrylife No opinion on 572 I own one it mostly sits. Guy I cut with many years ago had a 390 said it wasn’t as good as 395 and I trusted his opinion. I’ve never run anything smaller. I own a 3120 but it’s two heavy to use. When your cutting veneer you need to be able to chase a tree down so having a small saw is asking for busted logs.
@@Good.Fellers thanks for the replies. Really value your opinion. Sorry, i've not done a whole lot of falling.. what do you mean by chase it? Is it to do with how you back cut into the hinge to steer the tree as it's starting to go?
Great review my man im hot on this model right now gonna try and find a decent deal on one coming in the near future. Love my 372xp but dam this 592 is like a Corvette eith a chain😎😎👍
Much appreciate the review on the saw and as usual, the learning points you have contained in all your videos. I would try one but at my age, I find I have reached my largest saw…….unless I try a hand at an Alaskan Mill. Look forward to what you bring next……..Thanks !! 👍🪵⛓🪚👏🇺🇸 Rick
@@Good.Fellers Ha! That is what the Boss say’s……”She has one, me, but I just collect Dust, most of the time” To that point in life where Slow & Steady when the race……..👍🥸
Do you find the 90cc saws to wear you out more quickly than the lighter 70cc class saws? More videos with explanations of how to best buck the logs once on the ground and other things that new guys could really learn a lot from what be great! Thanks
Only time I’ve run a smaller saw is when I had a injury. As soon as I was heeled up I was back to the 395. I could see my self going down to a smaller saw as I age but probly not until my 60s. I will make some bucking videos in the future. Thank you for the feed back.
How many hours or how much fuel did you you run through it before you noticed that it really "woke up"? I'm currently on my 8th tank of fuel, saw still seems like its running just a tad rich. Saw is a monster! Thanks, Dan
@@Good.Fellers So 33 hours of work time, plus idling and whatever so it might be 50+. A plug-in test will tell it more precisely. Anyway, this is just breaking in for these saws. When I saw (hehe) those numbers and board feet, my mind went to chainsaw milling. My 881 is closing in to 1000 work hours and there's no wear on the piston skirts yet, and the cylinder looks as new with no scoring. Running 25:1 motul 800 offroad for milling and 33:1 for the rest of my saws, thats my secret after some costly issues at 50/40:1 with all kinds of oils.
@em4703 yeah if you can cut a million ft of timber with a saw. I call that great. There’s wear and tear besides the motor, that can be a big concern. Av mounts etc.
Awesome videos you throw out love them... Question though I live up in the Pacific Northwest and we do a lot of fir and pine trees. I run a Stihl 311 and love it but really love the look of the Husqvarna 592 xp. So what I'm trying to get at should I go with it or go to a Stihl 462. I want to be able to throw bigger bars and on the 311 I can't..as a pro I value your opinion..thank you and be safe out there
The 462 isn’t even close to a 592. I personally won’t run anything but 395s or 592s. That’s just me though. I would recommend the 592 all the way. I own 3 of them .
@@Good.Fellers my dad moved us to Florida in 1972 from our grandparents farm in New Palestine,In. If you could get a couple more pictures of that would be great.
I have run Stihl professional model my whole life. I'm 62 and aways appreciate the advancements in forestry equipment. I ran a 592 xp last weekend. and im here to tell you that 592 xp is SWEET!!!. My 661 is almost a year old and pretty tired. Im replacing it soon. It won't be from Germany!
If continuously cutting big timber 592 beats the 500i. I'll probably go 500i though due to the fact that I dont have much for large timber and its 3lb lighter
I was a Husky dealer. Bought a 592XP. Haven't run it yet. Husqvarna makes the best chainsaws on the planet. Shalom/gw
Yeah, I’m a husky fan.
Glad you were able to fix the starting problem! Your detailed explanations and reviews are much appreciated!
Thank you! Slayer!
