t540 xp

[mccauleytree]

I got to demo one the other day, it was nice. I still like my 200t more. Maybe it's because I'm so use to it.

I haven't scaled it but it doesn't feel heavier than a 200 to me?

Anyone know the actual weight difference?

To me the balance is nice. So far it's a pretty ripping saw.

Lost the 338 and 200 PHO weight pics.

Wouldnt mind getting the PHO dry 338-2139, 200 and echo 355.

PHO dry weights.

The 540 felt heavy to me.......

 

[Tucker943]

Yes.

 

[Cut4fun]

I loved the feel of the 2 338 I had compared to my 200 and that was just for my trimming uses. Not pro commercial use. Wishing now I would have kept the last 338.
My 200 was a hell of a runner though.

Still needing a 338 or 2139 PHO dry weight and echo 355 PHO dry weight.

200T PHO dry weight.

Prob the crap safety chain or whatever semi they come with.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I kinda want one!

 

[CurSedVoyce]

I like the torque I saw

 

[Tucker943]

But it's a husqvarna.

My 200 pissed me off again today.. So I had to TD with my Echo 360T...
Now mind you, it's not horrible as I have opened it up and sped it up a tad.

My 540 crapped out in the cold here and it sat a couple of days. Wouldn't run worth a crap or rev up and wouldn't idle long enough to warm up. Fired up the 200 zero issues having sat in the same saw box and run in the exact same temps. Am I missing something with the 540 I wonder? For its sake I hope so.

 

[Cut4fun]

Mitch said the stock husky 37 chain is in videos.

His warming it up alittle. stock to warm over

Mitch builds a damn good saw. The guy is a genius on autotunes.

 

[Cut4fun]

Mitch is done testing with that new 540 and is selling it now. He does this with all the new saws that comes out.

[PCTREE]

[Husabud]

Wow! Nice score!

 

[PCTREE]

When you get back to climbing Bud let me know and you can give her a whirl for a couple weeks

Ill keep her as my "crane saw" for a while till I wear out some of my 200s

 

[Husabud]

Hey thanks Paul! It might be in your crane a bit though.

 

[Cut4fun]

Ill take it.

I see it is marked SOLD. Did ya get info in time?

 

[PCTREE]

Yup, thanks!!

 

[squisher]

Has anyone else had cold running issues with this saw?
