Hi WC the bar used on that saw was a 16" bar cutting an 18" log. As you can see it did it quite well and only cutting from one side. Can you fit a longer bar? Yes. Is it advisable to fit a longer bar? No. This is a small 40cc chainsaw that has been built as a light weight all purpose saw with its optimum bar length at 16". If you go bigger than this you will take too much of the available power away from cutting and put it towards driving the extra length of chain around a much longer bar. By doing this performance and operator satisfaction are both affected negatively.

Hi madrx2. Great question. This saw is aimed at the semi professional user like farmers, fencing contractors, firewood collectors etc. It is not an "XP" saw. All the XP saws are designed and built the be used hard ALL day every day. The 562XP, for example is a great saw with excellent power to weight ratio. It has been built to more exacting specifications, finer tolerances, better balancing of all moving parts and more. It is like taking a super street car and turning it into a competitive race car, everything is tricked up and taken to the next level. You will be able to see that when we load the next video on the 572XP cutting the same log immediately afterwards. The 572XP looks the same, except for a bigger air filter, is seemingly the same engine and other components but performs at lot better, near 20% in our trial.

wood also looked pretty dry which slows things down. try a shorter bar/chain
@noelelliott6 жыл бұрын
Hi 0x00zero the longer bar was just for giggles but let me address your comment on the slow cutting speed. The video was done to show that having a big chainsaw is not the way to go in smaller sized timber. Let me explain. The slow cutting speed comes from the fact that the 3120XP has a rev limiter so it cannot over rev. What this means is that the max chain speed is limited ie it just wont scream out like other saws when the load is a lot lighter than it is designed to handle. Also the 3120XP runs a 0.404in saw chain which means it has approx 20% less cutting teeth per foot of chain than a 0.325 chain does. So therefore when you multiply the slower chain speed and less cutters per foot together and cut a small log which doesn't require just raw power to pull the chain through at max rpm you cannot help but to get a slower cutting speed. Check out the two videos at kzread.info/head/PL_VIr09L3-8TlPUxc0MeIkzeEfrvMYn8b and you will see that in a bigger log, 650mm, that the 3120XP is nearly 30% faster than the 395XP (the second biggest Husqvarna chainsaw). Also we did test cuts in the bigger log (video not uploaded) that you see in those videos and the 395XP was a good 45 secs slower in the 900mm log than the 3120XP for only just one cut. This is where the sheer power of the 3120XP come into its own. I hope this clarifies a few things for you.

@@AH-hi7jg Yes it will be as all the components are made in the same factories and I'm sure just the assembly process is conducted in Husqvarna's Brazilian factory.
@@noelelliott thank you for your reply 👍👍
What size bar is on this? Can it use a bigger bar?
Hi WC the bar used on that saw was a 16" bar cutting an 18" log. As you can see it did it quite well and only cutting from one side. Can you fit a longer bar? Yes. Is it advisable to fit a longer bar? No. This is a small 40cc chainsaw that has been built as a light weight all purpose saw with its optimum bar length at 16". If you go bigger than this you will take too much of the available power away from cutting and put it towards driving the extra length of chain around a much longer bar. By doing this performance and operator satisfaction are both affected negatively.
Looks like a great saw. I purchased the 562xp last year, I was wondering why this bigger saw was a little cheaper? Keep up the great content. Thanks :)
Hi madrx2. Great question. This saw is aimed at the semi professional user like farmers, fencing contractors, firewood collectors etc. It is not an "XP" saw. All the XP saws are designed and built the be used hard ALL day every day. The 562XP, for example is a great saw with excellent power to weight ratio. It has been built to more exacting specifications, finer tolerances, better balancing of all moving parts and more. It is like taking a super street car and turning it into a competitive race car, everything is tricked up and taken to the next level. You will be able to see that when we load the next video on the 572XP cutting the same log immediately afterwards. The 572XP looks the same, except for a bigger air filter, is seemingly the same engine and other components but performs at lot better, near 20% in our trial.
@@noelelliott Thankyou for your great in-depth reply. Really appreciate it. It must be fun getting to play around with all these great new tool. All the best.
@@noelelliott If the XPs are built to finer tolerances then why does the engine components on the 565 and 572xp share the same part numbers?
@@johnwalt3504 Aah yes great question. The piston (and many other parts) are the same but important bits like the cylinder, crankcase assy, carburetor, air filter, ignition module etc are different making the 572XP an "XP" model chainsaw.
@@noelelliott 372 xp czy 565 xp ?

Which batteries were you using? How many watt hours per battery?
I was using the BLi200 batteries which are 5.2 Ahrs and 180 Whrs. Husqvarna now have a BLi300, just released, which is 9.4 Ahrs and 335 Whrs. If I had of used this model battery I could have done the whole job on a single battery.
A 335 Wh should cut an impressive amount. I use about 500 Wh to cut a pickup load. I use a little more that two sets of Makita's which are 216 hrs per set. Makita uses a set of 2 small tool batteries. Two 335 Wh batteries would cut a hell of load.HUSQVARNA is a good brand.
@@geraldmoore6257 Hi That is an excellent comparison and good feedback, thanks.
this has convinced me to look very seriously at a HUSKY battery saw. I have a NEW husky book with everything they make it in, picked it up at a dealer just a couple weeks ago. I'll tell them you sent me.
Hi Ben, yes the videos that we do are to show exactly how good the Husqvarna machinery is and what it is capable of. Just telling someone what a machine does is one thing but when they see it actually doing it it brings a whole new dimension to the product. Yes definitely mention us, we do know a lot of other Husqvarna dealers around Oz.
The wood must be hard because there is nothing extra
Yes our Australian hardwoods are amongst the hardest in the world
Considering how tough our Aussie hardwood is and especially when its seasoned a few years, that battery powered Husqvarna did well
G'day Peter yes it did and even I, being a petrol saw pro from way further back than I care remember, was more than impressed. So much so it is now my go to saw for those small and sometimes medium jobs that just need doing. No more fuel mixes, ever, no stale fuel dramas, no engine servicing with its associated costs, no prolonged start up procedures and yeah I could go on but you get the point. long term just a great investment.
Yup starting to feel good. I have a couple of Stihls which are bulletproof but I'm getting too old to crank the big one over even with compression pressure relief on... Hence the large battery Husqvarna maybe the goods for me.
what kind of tree hard or soft wood
Hi the wood is Australian Jarrah which is a native to the south west of Australia and it is a hardwood, a very hard wood
*Love this chainsaw!==>**ur2.pl/761** Just bought a new house and I didn’t want to get anything gas powered. It has quite a bit of power to it and is easy to use. I love that I don’t have to worry about gas. Just put oil in it and go! It’s lightweight too!*
*Friend loves it and it works great>>>**ur2.pl/725** It is def. a workhorse. Not for the ladies. It is heavy.*
*I love this saw!>>>**ur2.pl/722** Cuts like a champ and starts up every time. It's easy to maintain and is a workhorse on my property. Vibration is so low on this saw, it's comfortable to cut for long periods of time. It is well balanced and lightweight for a 60cc saw. Be sure you use ethanol free 50:1 fuel oil mixture only. I also use the Husqvarna bar & chain oil and I like it a lot. The only drawback is the included chain. Get yourself a full skip chain and lose the safety chain Husqvarna provides. You will be glad you did.*
i thought the 440 was a 40cc saw
*Great saw>>>**ur2.pl/725** I have cut 6 cords worth of wood with it so far without any major issue. I would recommend using Ethanol Fuel Treatment & Stabilizer with this chainsaw. Also avoid servicing with the brake on as it will be a pain to unlock the brake to get the cover back on.*
wood also looked pretty dry which slows things down. try a shorter bar/chain
Hi 0x00zero the longer bar was just for giggles but let me address your comment on the slow cutting speed. The video was done to show that having a big chainsaw is not the way to go in smaller sized timber. Let me explain. The slow cutting speed comes from the fact that the 3120XP has a rev limiter so it cannot over rev. What this means is that the max chain speed is limited ie it just wont scream out like other saws when the load is a lot lighter than it is designed to handle. Also the 3120XP runs a 0.404in saw chain which means it has approx 20% less cutting teeth per foot of chain than a 0.325 chain does. So therefore when you multiply the slower chain speed and less cutters per foot together and cut a small log which doesn't require just raw power to pull the chain through at max rpm you cannot help but to get a slower cutting speed. Check out the two videos at kzread.info/head/PL_VIr09L3-8TlPUxc0MeIkzeEfrvMYn8b and you will see that in a bigger log, 650mm, that the 3120XP is nearly 30% faster than the 395XP (the second biggest Husqvarna chainsaw). Also we did test cuts in the bigger log (video not uploaded) that you see in those videos and the 395XP was a good 45 secs slower in the 900mm log than the 3120XP for only just one cut. This is where the sheer power of the 3120XP come into its own. I hope this clarifies a few things for you.
The sped up video makes it impossible to compare to petrol. Shame!
Hi Thanks for the feedback. We are looking into reloading the video with a couple more normal speed sections.
