As an installer I recommend the 560 XP® Mark II where you need the power of a large saw in a slim, easy-to-handle package. It’s a 60 cc professional petrol chainsaw with X‑Torq® power and AutoTune 3.0 (with Simple Start Technology) so it starts easily and runs consistently in varying conditions. Suitable for felling, limbing and bucking hardwoods and large conifers, and compatible with either .325″ or 3/8″ cutting equipment.

High cutting capacity and sustained power

The high-rev 60 cc X‑Torq® engine delivers strong torque across a wide rpm range, giving the grunt needed for long cuts and productive work even with longer guide bars.

Reliable starts and optimised running

AutoTune 3.0 with Simple Start Technology keeps the carburettor settings optimised automatically. That means easier starting and steady performance without routine manual carburettor adjustments.

Slim, well-protected design for better handling

A low, slender saw body, smooth underside and well-protected controls make the machine easier to manoeuvre in tight situations and reduce the risk of snagging on branches.
