I put my first full wrap on a saw this year. A little off for me at first but I'm learning to maximize my sawing production from angles that were difficult or impossible without one.

I thought the 362 was shit. Do love a 361 though.

They're all good tools. As far as Im concerned, Im more worried about how sharp the chain is and true the bar is then anything else. Im a die hard Ford guy but at this point in life, I'll take whatever starts when i turn the key. I dont even give a shit anymore.

RE the blue choke lever, how much abuse do they take? I dont rig off of them or use them to attach my saw lanyard. Pull on, push off. No more abuse then that. They'll take it just fine.

Never had a problem starting a husky starting. Never broke a choke pull lever either. Stihls always started great too provided I cleaned the air filters 9 times that day.

Ive never touched my primer once.

Its a solid investment. My stable includes 288, 372, 361, 441, 460, 562, and a 350 somewhere. Id throw all the rest in the river before I'd part with my 562. Dead on reliable, easy on gas, and built well.

How do full wraps ride in front of the seat in a skidder? It would seem the saw wouldn't sit flush to the seat mount. I never used one while logging.

The 562 has a low center of gravity too and rotates side to side nicely without a ton of wrist fatigue. Really nice for aggressive limbing.

Oh that's 562 material all day long. Maybe ask about the HD dawg if it exists. In that kind of wood, you have all the power you need, all the rev you need for limbing, and the ergonomics and weight and balance make it an all day saw in the woods.

Average diameter at the stump?

You making logs or pulp this winter?

562 heated. 550 is a hair light unless you are cutting light pulp. 562 will spank the hell out of a 362 and has nice ergonomics as well.
