A 60cc saw is a good one saw plan for most users, a 50cc is not.Nov 17, 2013. #6. Handle angle is one difference. I happen to think they have a better looking saw with the color and plastic differences. In the 2166-365/2172-372xp class the Jonsereds have a lower profile air filter housing. I happen to like that more than the higher profile Husqvarna air filer housing.Addicted to ArboristSite. Joined Mar 1, 2013 Messages 3,389 Reaction score 7,237 Location Western WI. ...

So to put 2000 hours on a chainsaw it would have to run at its rated RPM for 2000 hours. I figure a chainsaws rated RPM is full throttle. Since chainsaws are not run wide open all the time it take more than 2000 hours to put 2000 hours of engine time on.Addicted to ArboristSite.

Took a hard look at husky 572 and echo 7310 and 462 500. Down to 462 and 500 all videos they seem pretty close cutting speed.
