Very good construction of the PC2525. More compact and lighter than the Nakayama PC3530.
It is powerful and has nerve. Its noise is a bit more intense than its predecessor, the PC3530.
It has a narrow carving blade with bearings and a chain thickness of 1.1mm.
The differences compared to the PC3530 are that to reduce the overall weight:
It has smaller fuel and chain oil tanks.
It has a thinner clutch.
None of the above is negative.
In terms of improvements:
It has better ergonomics in the angle of the handle and does not hurt the wrist and forearm after a long time of work, more stable grip.
It does not have a choke (which I removed from the PC3530) under the filter.
It only has the two screws for the blade and all other covers are snap-on, making access to the filter and spark plug easier.
Also, it does not come off with the side cover and the entire system with the brake handle.
It has a switch for the off function right on the handle (not double) for more immediate stopping in any situation, and additionally, it has a spring and is always in the on position, which means you will never pull the starter with closed currents and clog it.
It needs adjustment; at least my carburetor needed adjustment, it had a high idle, raised low, and lowered high, which made me think it had no power during the first cuts, even though it had nerve, the sound was like a rattle. After 4 tanks and adjusting the carburetor, the machine is dynamite. Smooth, without vibrations, instant, and torquey. With a very nice crisp sound. The carburetor has classic L and H screws for a screwdriver, unlike the PC3530 which requires special screwdrivers (for anyone who knows how to adjust them; those who don't know should not touch them and should consult someone with experience to avoid damaging the machine or later saying it won't start at all and stalls).
It has better filling caps on the tanks, unscrewing more easily by hand.
Simpler filter that snaps on rotationally.
The screw for the oil flow has been placed on top, double on the trigger, so you don't need to turn it upside down to adjust it.
For basic instructions for first start, break-in, etc., see my review on the Nakayama PC3530; it is the same.
It is VFM!!! Perfect for estate maintenance, firewood cutting, and tree pruning.
If someone wants it for logging, I would say the PC3530 is better due to its thicker 1.3mm chain and weight.
It is wonderful. Powerful and lightweight. Economical and in consumption. Its noise is a bit more pronounced than a similar model of 300+ euro that I have compared it to. I won't say it's better, but I am 100% sure that it is a value for money purchase. Especially at the 100 euro I found it for. I might even get a 2nd one as a backup
I will give it 5 stars, it cuts very well, we mainly use it on cherry trees but it also easily cuts the dry ones, I found it for 108 euros and got it "for free" because for such a tool from other companies you have to pay 200 euros and up, it also has a 2-year warranty plus a free chain... it is lightweight and comfortable, if you want you can put a better spark plug, that's all.
