    Yes and depth gauge [raker] height setting also.

    New Top Handle Husky.

    I haven't seen the posted ratings but from my experience with different saw companies ratings, that 10,200 rpm would be while the saw is in the wood.

    Yes it can be done Magnus. Here is an opportunity for someone to make a good business venture. Think of the possibilities. Willard.:/:

    New Top Handle Husky.

    Burnham I've thrown a few chains on the top handles and the spur does major damage on the little chains drive links, especially the extra hard Stihl Picco. But my main reason for the rim setup is for the convenience of inter changeability between the 338XPT and my 346XP [both saws use the same...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    No rim setups that I could find for the MS200. I have spur drums with matching worm gears in 1/4", .325 and 3/8" Picco for my MS200. On my 019 I have a 1/4" spur drum on it and there is no oil pump worm gear because the 019 has a inboard clutch. Its funny the MS200 never got a inboard clutch...

    I hope I can convert this new 540 over to a rim sprocket like I have with my 338XPT. Hopefully they take the same drum and oil pump worm gear. No rim setup available for the Stihl Ms200:cry: Willard.

    Thanks Nick I might take you up on that. ND is only a few hrs drive from my inlaws who live in Winnipeg, Manitoba. We go to visit quite often even though we live 7 hrs drive north of them. For yrs many folks from ND did their shopping in Winnipeg when our Canadian $ was so low. Now its the other...

    My Husky dealer figures we won't see them here in Canada for at least another year. So I may have to come across the line and pick one up. Fargo, North Dakota here I come. Willard.:)

    New Top Handle Husky.

    I know Dave, but its that time of the year again where I shutdown down for the winter. I got a 5 gal pail of stump grinder teeth to sharpen, pile of chipper knives, sawchain and a trailer and powerbarrow that needs some modifications. -30 below windchill outside, the warm garage feels pretty...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    Still no T540XP available yet so I just have to do with my Stihl MS200 and Husky 338XPT. I had the 338 on the bench today and did some bar and rim sprocket changes. A while back I did the 9/16" outlet muffler mod to it and have about 40 tanks of fuel through it now, little guy really rips. 1st...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    Yes these new generation 540's look just like the new not out yet 560-562XP's. From what I hear Husqvarna really got their act together on these new saws. I hope they upgraded the primer bulbs from the trouble I've been having with my 346's. Willard.

    New Top Handle Husky.

    I don't think you'll have much luck getting reports on AutoTune problems. From what I hear from abroad the saws are very reliable. I got 3 of them and all 3 run the same with no problems. Willard.

    New Top Handle Husky.

    576.... more torque[cuts like a 80cc] , always in perfect tune- no more damn carb screws , alot easier on gas, stronger smoother anti-vibe, better balance, 4 clips hold whole top cover on, easy access decomp button. When I do the muffler mod I'll update later. I better go turn my dusty 372 over...

    :? I haven't found a bulb on the 576. Are you thinking of a 346XP?:lol: Willard.

    New Top Handle Husky.

    rb good point about the reach factor with the rear filter. The 540 or what model # Jonsered decides to go with should be an interesting saw to run especially with the auto tune setup. The saw being strato charged will run clean enough so it won't have a cat muffler. So a muffler mod should be no...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    Interesting.How old is your 338? I read somewhere about a year ago may have been on AS. Info said Husqvarna did an upgrade to the 338XPT'S air filter intake. Thats why I would like to compare my 2010 338 intake setup [pic below] to an older Husky/Jonsie model. When you look at the square hole...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    Little delay, I had to use my kids camera , my wife is off to Nashville,Tenn at her cousins wedding and she took my camera. Now you gotta believe me, both saws in the bottom pic have 6-8 hrs each doing aerial pruning and removal in poplar. I clean them once a day. Now compare the first pic rb to...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    I just got my new 338 last spring and I have the luxury of running it and my MS200 alongside each other every day. And the 200 airfilter gets dirtier way faster then the 338. I think the 4 pyramid design of the 338's filter may shed dust better then the flat 200 filter. I'm going out to the...

    New Top Handle Husky.

    :lol:I hear alot of whining about the 335, why not just buy a 338 and have less to bitch about. The airfilter on my 2010 338XPT stays cleaner longer then my MS200 hands down. I had the rewind housing off my 338 last evening and the air injection [what little air injection a saw of this size...
