Stihl MS 462 (ported) vs. Husqvarna 572xp (ported) bucking beech

MS462 and 572xp (both woodsported) bucking some beech. Of course, the chain was a little bit to agressive and only for testing. I wanted to put as much stress as possible on the saws in that kind of wood with the agressive chain and the 8pin sprocket, just for testing purposes.

[@ChiefManny1]

The Stihl sounds like an angry Bee! The Husky sounds like an angry Wasp!

[@robpotter1355]

Beautiful! I love to have the chain so aggressively sharp she can’t quite make top revs, pro saws like to be worked hard, not sure the chain appreciates the beech, but the wood stove will. Thanks for giving me my 2 stroke fix, whilst I’m relaxing by the pool on my holiday, thinking about my Husky! ( Don’t tell the Wife)

Huskys better saw all the way around. In 3 yrs when the stihl pops, the husky will still be earning firewood or money. And im a stihl fan lol

[@victor-emmanuel7485]

I’m confused too on the two brands 😂 I really want a 461, yet I yesterday aquired a 262xp to go along with my 272xp

[@johnserrano9689]

The world is a crazy place. But then again the 2 companies know exactly what their product lines need, they filled their need, and i just bought the 572xp and honest its thw best saw i have ever run. It really is a 461 more torque, crossed with a high horse saw its very different than i expected, yet better in everway

Great sounding saws, do you port chainsaws for yourself as a hobby or is it a business for external customers? I'd love to get one of these.

[@karlfromtas]

An unfair assesment , Here in Tasmania you would have to sharpen the chain if cutting after that many cuts in hardwood as the wood is so dense. to be fair the chain should of been sharpened as well when the bar was swapped

[@workandplay-pk8ek]

Agreed good bit of stringey bark would be a good test thats if we could even get these saws yet

[@col470]

572 is here in Aus. Check the latest catalogue n call the dealer! XCUT chain comes standard as well.

[@garryaylward8050]

I,ve used both in Aussie string bark the 572 with xcut chain 462 super chisel after 2hrs cutting went for the 462 not much in it but the lighter weight and better grunt of the stihl when the going got tough made my decision an easy one

I was running this saw for about 2 hours at about a 30-50% duty cycle kzbin.infoUgkxfQm1wmg0ItKDLavxj1nXtQY9HP7EF504 and it did a great job. I used the lever for the built in sharpener to clear chip buildup out more than to actually sharpen the chain. It managed to cut some hardwood stumps much larger than it's size without bothering the neighbors with hours of 2 stroke noise.

[@catena744]

@@Dechsi87 ok ma se riesci affilare bene non serve abbassare troppo il delimitatore lavora più sul rinterzo facendo meno punta entrando meno in profondità e stando più in alto nel dente, cosi la catena entra con un taglio più largo e non sforza nei tronchi grossi.

[@Dechsi87]

Come ho detto, dovrebbe essere il più faticoso possibile per le seghe. Era solo per il carico massimo di limitatori di profondità aggressivi. Questa non è una normale catena di lavoro.

[@catena744]

@JS look up Charles Briscoe lol. He is hitting 8,8.3, and 8.4hp for 7310 work saws. 9hp wasn’t hard for him, yet he thinks it’s durability may be compromised. 7310’s are like 372’s. Just meh stock but become monsters once ported.
