OK then it is a 60cc saw  :D :D :D

Both saws had 20" bars were oregon powermatch and same type chains.  357 had small mount and 562 large mount.  Got to be some weight gained on 562 there. How much I dont know.

Fuel and oil held would also increase the weights, but I never checked how much each holds.

All I know is THAT day lifting both the 357 felt lighter then the 562 in my hands lifting back and forth off the ground.

I think the reason the 562 demo was lacking it had to be a pretty new saw with not much run time on it. Seemed very easy to bog down in cut and peaky type powerband as it was.

Throttle position, carb temp and rpm are the inputs.

My 562 is neither peaky nor heavier than a 357......beings it is with out a top and rear handle at the moment :'(


I hear you on the feel of both.  Basically the same to me but also feels like the weight is pushed back for better balance. 

Also, one must take into account, the cost of this saw will fill my propane tank for several months of heat.  That is the way firewood cutters look at it.

<"Throttle position, carb temp and rpm are the inputs">

Ah, ok, minimum of sensors, running in open-loop and reading look-up tables. And maybe using a stepper motor actuator for the L and H adjust? Just guessing on that. And what to use as power source?
Keep in mind this is a digital controller working the standard (analog) carb. Meaning, there's no high-tech magic here.
But, even so, I think it's innovative, smart business and marketing, and (evidently) cost effective.
Probably works just fine, too.

The autotune has been out for quite a while already, not totally new technology.  ;D

Ok, I'm done.  Couldn't be happier for a work saw.

Looks great. So did MM cut you a pop up? 

Is that a 24 or 28 bar sunk in?  Looks good either way.


If you want someone to run it at the Ohio racing GTG June 2nd I will volunteer to put a 16" and chain it for some cant racing  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D  I'll even test 7 and 8 for quickest timed cuts in 8x8 or 10x10 depending what we race in for you.  ;D ;D ;D ;D

Looks good Mitch. I bet it will be close to a lot of 70cc saws.

Just a 20" in this vid and I was really leaning on it.  28" vid is loading.
Yes. Randy cut a .024 for me.  Pop up pistons are not my thing as I tend to part ways with most saws.  In this case though, just going without gasket allows .024-.025 with .021 squish.  If something was to happen, a guy could throw a stock piston in it with gasket no problem.  Besides this one isn't going anywhere.

I'm sure it could make an appearance in Ohio.  Have to promise to return it though ;)

Looks good Mitch. I bet it will be close to a lot of 70cc saws.

Just looking at the times, it would walk on a stock 372X-torq.  Pulling 10800-11500 with a 28" in the cut, with the right operator, I'm sure it would give many ported 72's a run.

These saws put out good HP for the size.....I sure hope it holds up lol

Here we go with a 28" guide full ch.  This is the same wood that the 372XT was cutting in....for reference.
