572XP vs 462 - 36" bar comparison

[@Cholton327]

Love your vids man.

[@Redbull661]

thank you sir.

[@troyledbetter6597]

I really enjoy your videos and comparisons of chain saws. I’m not familiar with the bar your using. What would the weight savings/balance be on a Stihl MS440 with a standard 30” bar vs the bar like you are using? Thanks in advance!

[@zekekoonce9351]

Both saws run that bar just fine! Nice video!

[@ivanradas6044]

Most people are biased towards one brand or another, but I think they’re both great saws and you really can’t go wrong with either. It’s all about what you’re used to operating and where you can get it serviced at.

[@ShiftyTipsChannel]

Great job!

[@Redbull661]

thank you sir

[@stephengeorgopoulos6820]

What type of bar and chain is this? I was thinking of putting a 36 on my 572xp

[@rottiejakeluke]

Please send me a link for purchasing of the bar and chain you used in this video. Thanks

[@SCouch-cw6je]

I had to file the rakers on my archer chain give a good hand filing before it would cut the way I like it. With any new chain I file the rakers out of the box. I like a chain to cut and the weight of the saw will pull it through the wood. Both nice saws but I run a 462 and it’s a beast

[@poparamiro]

Great comparison, i gain only some torque with muffler mod, and after M-Tronic reset the mix get richer.

[@Redbull661]

yes sir. I'd agree with that.

[@smithtradfallning]

My 462 does get quite a bit more in the air box than you would expect with a sharp chain and the air injection. I don't know if something is off or not. I run my 2071 with a winter filter because there is basically nothing in the air box after 4-5 tanks versus the 462 that has fines all over the carb and built up in the pleats of the filter.

Kinda late on the video but how do like those archer chains. I run a 36” on my 661 3/8 063. How do they compare to Oregon or stihl. I know they are a lot cheaper which means softer metal.

[@robertclifford1099]

Not quite as good as Stihl but miles ahead of Oregon in terms of tooth hardness.

[@jmwilson614]

The Husky was cutting into the log behind it on the first cut which slowed it down. These saws are so close in comparison, the average person probably could tell them apart when it comes to power only ergonomics. Stihl has went more in the direction of Husqvarna than Husqvarna to Stihl in the last 10 years. With the 500i hitting the market, Stihl is braving the path forward at the moment with its technology. Great to have competition, we all benefit. Thanks Redbull661 for your time and video.

[@Redbull661]

thank you sir. note: 462 also cut into the log behind it same as husky (on first log)

[@samhaveaguess4284]

Great video and demonstration !! But not a real fare comparison in the true sense!! The stihl has very close to 2cc more displacement! So if it does not cut faster then its time for the bin !! Both saw companies are the top of the tree !! As long as you buy no less than there middle of the rang stuff !! Dont buy there cheap stuff or you may as well just go to wallmart and buy a throwaway !! But i just prefer husky over stihl because bang for buck !!$$$ husky always just seem to cut that bit faster !! I also got burnt a couple of times with stihl with a poor saw and broken promises from the dealer !! So just put me off them maybe for life !! That is just my thoughts anyhow !! Buy honestly you cant go wrong either way !! Unfortunately Dolma are not available where i am or else i would throw them in the mix as well !!!

[@owtlawglock]

Time to tighten up that chain.

[@treemerc101]

I run both and you can not go wrong with either saw. In my professional opinion a 32 inch bar or smaller is best for this size chainsaw.. if you want to run a 36 then buy a ms500i, ms661, 390xp or 395xp. Opening up the exhaust really wakes both up but they are 2 of the best chainsaws made by the top 2 companies. I put dual ports on the 572 and it runs and sounds mean! With that said both of these saws are for professionals and too much saw for the average home owner.

[@lucas2424mc]

Just picked up a new 572xp. Journeyman tree trimmer. Used stihl all my life. Really excited about this saw. How'd the dual porting work out

[@treemerc101]

@@lucas2424mc it frees up a ton of power and sounds mean. Any chainsaw I buy I open up the exhaust because their airflow is overly restricted from the factory and run better more exhaust flow.

[@Orefamilylawncare]

Looks like across the board the 462 is a tad faster both in your demonstration as well as a few others. That said i myself an a husky fan. The Air filtration is great on Husqvarna although heavier than the stihl. So whats the takeaway here? 1: both fantastic saws 2: dealer support 3: whats more comfortable to operate for different users 4: price (contractors can get fleet pricing on Husqvarna) 5: inboard vs outboard clutch Really could go on and on i believe however its really user preference i guess.

[@antoniofeio5304]

Não amigo o 572xp é mais rápido todo mundo sabe disso mais esse canal é tendencioso sou operador de motosserra vi claramente que esse cara optou em colocar o sthil na frente

These are both 70cc size saws arnt they? I know the 572 is like right at 70cc an the 462 is 72cc I believe? I can’t quite remember

[@bobsbeard3977]

462 is 72.2cc 5.9 bhp stock.

[@ryanscutt2454]

Not a fair review at all. Muffler mods make a huge difference, weather you notice it or not. That husky would run circles around the stihl if not had a muffler mod. Also, you were cutting the log behind with the tip completely robbing the husky’s time making it look worse. Lucky you didn’t get a kick back.

[@jjgiasson]

First thing I thought.

[@right8630]

Also he cut big piece making the stihls time look better.

572 and 462???

[@stevewarner8880]

I’ll say up front I have a 462 (25”) bar. I’ve used it on one tree job since new, bone stock and it’s a saw that you love to run. Light and balanced with good speed in the cut. I can’t badmouth Husqvarna as I’ve never owned one. I have a great Stihl dealer locally so that’s the main reason I run them. The dealership support for Husqvarna is very poor in my area, actually nonexistent for the XP pro series saws. A few “dealerships” have come and gone in past years but were sketchy to say the least. So I guess I’m stuck with Stihl. I’m glad to see the 462 doing a decent job with a 36” bar. I think that’s to big for it, I have a 660 for that work.

Huskys the better saw overall. In 5 years when the stihls on the bench torn apart because she popped all while the huskys out in the mountains still running strong let me know how happy you are then lol. Im not biased, just these two saws are not the same idea the only thing close is their displacement. Husky is way over built yet has awesome power to weight, stihl is built decent and has best power to weight. Except does the bigger heavier duty bearings weight more than "good enough for now" bearings? If time prooves me wrong fck it then lol but no one wants a saw thatll blow up in only a couple years like some of the early 562s, for stihl to built 462 as duty shell then out weight the husky
