I bought one today (500i is out of stock in Australia and doesn't look like any coming through until next year due to covid), one thing I noticed on mine is they now come out with the big dogs which is a plus.
Looks like a awesome saw. I just have a couple of husky 455 ranchers. They are over 15 years start easy. But I'd like this with 25 inch bar. Use the smaller saws just for limbing
I have no problem out of the 3 husqvarnas I have all start on sec to third pull have a redmax branded husqvarna 455 and 372xt and the new 545 mark 2 have had the 372 the longest since end of 2018 starts like it was brand new even if sits for 8 months or more don't use it much because of the weight have a bad shoulder and back use 93 Octane fuel with redmax 2cycle oil
U can get more oil outta ur Oiler by taking a punch and punching the Oiler screw down all the way and u can adjust it more. Just a little FYI for ya bud.
Hey man, how good is the filtration system on this saw? Is there any fine dust getting through that can be seen inside the carby? Reason I ask is, I have two Husqvarna 562’s the filtration system is so ridiculous, I can scoop fine dust out with my finger beyond the filter (down the throat of the carby). I’m getting this same machine you have, once I can get out more than 5kms from my home..... lockdown Melbourne Australia 🤬
