562xp mk2 gets a mk1 piston

[@dubbssawshop]

She's smoking, that jewel sounds very healthy 👍🏻 should be fine with .015" squish all day long. Im about to crack into a Mk1 562xp here shortly and try my luck at it.

I feel so lucky and blessed. I have not had the problem of out running my chain😅 My2cents😊

[@dubbssawshop]

😂 that's a problem worth having 😂

[@aaronpowell4885]

The overrunning your chain theory makes sense to me. Maby a slightly more aggressive hook?

[@Houseworksaws]

My 2015 562xpg is an old WWS build. It has a pop up with .014-.015” squish. Been that way since 2015 and it’s alive and well

[@Ketis1985]

Wicked work saw?

[@Houseworksaws]

@@Ketis1985 yes 👍

[@Houseworksaws]

No I think you’re right I’ve always heard the factory grind is rated for 10krpm chain speed

[@coreycorp7048]

Try another chain , maybe a new out of the box chain and see if the rpm in the cut changes.

[@jonathanhensley8685]

There’s a reason high rpm saws run modified chains flat front Rikers better chip ejection and the list goes on and on.

[@stanleymason8155]

I have been using my chainsaw mill and can file quite well now. However it wouldn't cut slabs well. Then I went from my Oregon raker Guage and tried the Husqvarna raker gauge. While it should be the same depth it is ramped to the point less aggressively then stock! I can say it cut horrendously faster and used noticeably less fuel!! So long story short slope the raker.

[@matthewknight5641]

I have a new 550 mark 2 with only 2 tanks of fuel thru it. I'd like to put a pop up piston in it. Do you think the little red barn piston on Amazon would be ok or maybe something else. Any advice is appreciated.

[@wayneanderson991]

Chain sharpness and cutter geometry is critical when rpm's go over 11,500 rpm in the cut if your looking for speed. You are out running the chain as suggested by Matte.

[@kennytheguitarfanatic054]

Looks like a that is a great work saw and a good runner.

[@dmc2537]

It's very easy to know why autotune generated a richer tuning, so it makes less r.p.m. off the wood, but maintains more r.p.m. on the wood simple

[@yenerm114]

Maybe just try a 24” bar 🤷🏼‍♂️ instead of using a 20 and 28 , that saws running good either way 👌🏻🤘🏼

[@matthewbutcher203]

I had a clone 660 hit at 0.017 had to cut more squish band to get clearance that being said it had Chineseium bering tolerance but eventually your OE berings are gonna wear as well

[@shakdidagalimal]

10:15 Hey I wonder what would happen if those two f'ers went at it, the guy on the right definitely looks meaner.

[@redtiller1975]

Cool saw. I don't have many "modern" saws, but I might have to get one.

[@scottwilson4396]

Buy 3 chains . Use one for 10 timed cuts and record the loss . Factor a handicap for wear

[@thomaslindroos1667]

I'd love to know how it compares to your ported 359

[@mrfirewood6215]

I would like to see how that compares to an ms462. They are about the same weight

[@tatepazaski5488]

Regardless if that's a chain issue or not, that freaking saw screams.

[@Houseworksaws]

That’s a nice saw man

[@crazyfeller5704]

👍👍 just a thought - use a 24 for everything. One pass for speed in smaller wood, speed pass in larger wood and dog for torque. You seem to have a feel for the right pressure to keep it even. That trims the chain qty to 10 chains. If you can establish a link count I may be able to assist.

[@novicelumberjack]

Great idea! And maybe we can get the Duke to step in and sponsor the event, have the chains sent to someone who can put identical and somewhat hungry grinds on them all, and each saw does their own cuts with the same chain. 10 Duke chains all with an identical grind... sounds like a plan!

[@crazyfeller5704]

If the duke can do it - great! If not, let me know, I can pick up a roll of “ whatever” brand and make them up.

That's a bad ass for sure.

[@jamiedalluge9472]

We saw some of the Mark 2 pistins in the late original 562

[@evanclark7473]

Yup I bought a 562 in July of 23 and it had the dished piston

Fantastic video. Really like the .015 squish! Breaking the rules, breaking the rules dadada.

[@MrHangerone]

G'day mate if you want load up your ported chainsaws 20" bar 404 chain they are heavy and cut wider and last an good time cheers Kevin

[@crperformancetucker5065]

If you got more power to run higher rpm then you should be able to run the chain a little more agressive just my thoughts. I also had a pretty hot 036 with an 8pin that i swear would dual the chain fast because it was spinning so fast 🤷‍♂️

[@easymoneyism]

Lower the rakers a little more

[@easymoneyism]

If ya got the power to pull the wood then lower them

[@cajun3197]

Angling the transfers up kills power in my experience

[@Doc-Cole_Trickle-of-Chainsaws]

👊🐊

[@novicelumberjack]

I literally have no idea why I said that. If I've ever made flat ports, it's on this saw. I removed the transfer caps and came in from the outside. Those ports are flatt and perfect as I can get them. I also said that the mark 2 comes with a flat top piston. It's hard, speaking on the fly like that. Gives me a better understanding of George W. Bush. Not that I ever disliked him, but he was pretty well known to say some stupid shit!.

Those piston grooves look like old school iel hc pistons 😂. Those use a crosshatch pattern tho
