Anti-Vibration Element for Husqvarna 572XP

This Husqvarna 572XP anti vibration element replaces a worn, cracked, or stretched AV mount on the saw. Fresh mounts cut the buzz reaching your hands and keep the handle and engine aligned.

Why AV mounts wear out

Husqvarna pro saws separate the handles from the engine with anti-vibration elements. Every hour of cutting flexes those mounts, and over time they sag, crack, or break. Signs include more buzz in the handles, a handle that moves or clunks against the body, or a chain brake handle that rubs. Running on failed mounts means more vibration in your hands and more strain on the saw.

The 572XP is a powerful mid-to-large saw used for felling and bucking, and it spends a lot of time at full throttle in big wood. Worn mounts let more of that vibration into your hands, so check them when the saw starts to feel rough.

Hand-arm vibration adds up over years of cutting. Numb fingers, tingling, and poor grip at the end of the day are warning signs, and a saw with tired mounts makes them worse. Keeping the AV system in good shape is part of looking after your hands, along with warm, dry gloves, regular breaks, and a sharp chain that lets the saw cut without being forced.

Replacing the element

Note where each mount sits before you remove anything, because positions can differ. Many crews replace all the mounts at once so the saw feels even. Check that the handle sits square and moves only as much as designed after the job.

Shut the saw off, let it cool, and follow Husqvarna's workshop manual. Find more in chainsaw parts.
