My search for a bigger saw is over - I got me a 66

[djbobbins]

Looks to be in good condition for its age, running an 18" bar and went through some knotty pieces of oak happily.  

 

I've ordered a 24" bar for occasional use on bigger sticks.  

 

Any heads-up on things to look out for / be aware of would be appreciated.

A Husqvarna 66 or a Stihl 066?

Must be a Stihl 066 or MS660.....a bullet proof saw if it is. Never found anything that is much wrong with them, a solid work tool with no real weak areas.

Pics?

Of Route 66!

I’m putting my lovely 660 on Arbtalk classifieds in a day or two, if I can work out how to do it .

Sorry, I should have been clearer - my acquisition is a Husqvarna 66 🙂

 

Apologies in advance to the Stihl fans!

About 4hp I think . Might not like the 24" bar me thinks .  18" - 20" max .

That's not THE 660 is it?
