DATELINE: The Duck Ranch, 1,500 m a.s.l., Latitude 36º 07’ 03” N Longitude 138º 12’ 43” E ...approximately 9,220 km from Reading, UK~ I have been {very happily } running a T540iXP with the screen cover on the side panel for a few years now. After watching this presentation I am inspired to take the side panel off and see just what is going on debris wise BEFORE there is any problem. Thank you from a Canadian living in Japan.

I’d be interested to see how a US Rigging 46mm stainless steel ring stacks up against these 3. It’s comparable to the CMI which is also stainless, but is rated at only 24 kN.

Yea I hate that chain my milawaukee came with, I just literally recently changed mine out with a new bar from Oregon 14” and I only had to make a tiny hole in the bar for the adjuster tab to go thru but now I can get chains all day for my milawaukee top handle, now I’m rocking 3/8 .050 chains which are super easy to come by and the things back rippin zero issues

I have the Stihl 161T for over 3 years, have used and abused it for sure beyond manufacturers recommendation and so far this little saw never failed. I am not sure if I with trade it for anyone of those 2 model's they seem more bulky and heavier.

Stihl -Way too much chain indeed! Shuts off too fast, and heavy. Husq- I put the speed cut nano bar/chain on it and I would run it full time if my subscribers didn't complain about elec saws the whole time. 🙃 DeWalt is sending me their new top handle to use. I have a feeling it'll be a lot like the Stihl and not out perform the Husqvarna.
@NuGreenStoreАй бұрын
Stihl will have an answer to the 542, I'm sure it's on the drawing board, yes people are resisting the battery saws but to me it's a no brainer, no vibration and zero fumes in your face, dewalt, makita and milwaukee should stay in their lanes 😉

about the balance: husky isnt balancend either, love my 540, but the weightdistribution is backward, and with the new battery 220x its gone be even worse, so yeah good product but not balanced( unless with smaller battery but then it s underpowered not useable to fell)
@NuGreenStoreАй бұрын
The bli200 and bli200x are identical in wieght, are you referring to using a bli100, if so yes it's lighter but has min run time for a saw like the 540, I would have to disagree about the weight distribution, it's well balanced hence the same chassis on the 542, as for the power, it's very powerful. If you are comparing it to a gas top handle for removals, that's a different animal altogether

Very nice! I can tell it's pretty bomb proof. The wedge pouch is genuiness. I'd probably use this as a rigging line bag. I'd store my rig line and sling inside the bag and a omni block and/or regular block in the big pocket. Nice having the bar tool with the bag too. I'm always telling my guys to get one out of the truck. This makes it convenient. My climbing bag and rigging bags take the most wear and tear as they are used the most and typically in the danger zone of tree work.
@NuGreenStoreАй бұрын
We thought having the wedges on the bag was a good idea
@VeteranTreeServiceАй бұрын
It would be convenient to have a gear bag with my climb line already in it. I could then simply clip on my harness/spurs and flip line, throw it on my back, and conveniently walk to distant locations with only a chain saw in my hand. 🤔
@sirvozelo12 ай бұрын
Isn't this saw to bulky and heavier to cut with one hand on top of a tree? In my case I am with Stihl, I have the 161T but I have the same feeling in regard to the 220C.

In a 20" diameter oak log I only can got about 12 cuts then my AP500S battery is out of power.

Received. Really good quality! I'm impressed. I added the gas/oil pouch, axe holder, and wedge pouch. I'm 5' 10" and 165lbs. I did have to adjust the belt and suspenders all the way down. Seems like it's made for big burley guys. 😂 Still fits me though. 👍 I think it'll last forever so that's good. Great investment. I'm really impressed with the products coming out of Canada. My critique would be to have the axe holder be a little wider. Maybe a couple inches or give an option for a size depending on what axe the user has. Maybe two sizes. Thanks guys. I'm open to reviewing products on my channel if that's something you're interested in. - Tim

Excellent bit of info thanks. Get part 2 going please. My 520iHE3 stopped today mid job with similar but maybe less dramatic sounding noises. The blades jump around 3 or 4 mm everytime I press the throttle but then get the flashing light and it's basically locked up. Had to finish off the hedge with a topping saw like a cowboy. I was hoping it might be a bearing or something "cheaper" to replace but I've yet to open her up to check... she's unfortunately well out of warranty. What are my chances it could be an issue like in your video or a similar/different issue? I called a local shop to describe and the guy said it'd probably need a motor kit. Appreciate your video here.
