They were the stock hire saw in the 70s and withstood lots of abuse. I don't remember anyone who actually owned one as they are an ergonomic nightmare

I don't think so but then neither did most saws of the period. The first forestry saws I used around 1975, Jonsered 621/80, did have AV but no chain brake, first saw I had with a chain brake was probably Husky 162.

I know I might seem a bit a bit thick ... but whats an AV ??

(I have an earlier hedge trimmer, very similar handle arrangement, 'AV' are 2 elastomer type blocks located where the handle is bolted on for example)
