Yeah theyre a good saw, 70cc, robust and good power.

 

Wish i didn't sell mine :(

 

They are an older saw now. They did bring a 440 out after though, though they don't do this now either. Parts should be a plenty.

 

If its at the right money it'll do you good service. ohhh and 18-20" bar

Solid and reliable. I have used mine quite hard for milling (Ripsaw band mill) with no problems, and did once stick a 36" bar on it to split a couple of butts down on the Alaskan - I wouldn't say this was a happy experience though, for me or it.

 

Try to get the later one if you can, with the 12mm wrist pin (gudgeon pin) as opposed to the earlier 10mm version. It makes it easier to get a replacement pot and piston should you need one at some point.
