I guess if you must only have 1 big saw you mise well get you one. :lol: and the 2 3120 wasnt even in this pic 084 was my favorite big saw

oh if it doesnt have an elastostart handle on it, the ms460R started handle as pictured on the 2nd 084 in on the above picture has makes it a lot nice to start

 

its a big D handle and means the cord doesnt snatch the handle back out your hand as much when it fires

Got my 084 end of last year thinking I'd only use it 3-4 times a year, so far its been on most jobs, loads of torgue, reliable if looked after and cool as hell, but very heavy after a while. Go for it

[spudulike]

I am not your wife, we do not need an explanation, Everyman should have a huge saw, go forth and swappy logs for the 084

 

Sorry....a huge saw....a huge SAW .......no no no - this should be SAWS:thumbup:

 

Haven't you heard of CAD - Chainsaw Acquisition Dissorder - I satrted with a Stihl 009 and won't mention how many I think I may have now:laugh1:

just got an 084 this morning,36 bar,wot an animal!!!v happy

[swinny]

Go for it, especially when the the 500 euro's will be retail and they haven't cost you that much!!

 

Look at how much it cost you to produce that volume and it will look a different proposition! it'll look a bargain

Old thread this,

 

Did you ever get the 84?

[s o c]

yes.only felled one tree with it though,large ash, hit nail in it and wrecked chain.

quite happy with it. think i will get a shorter bar for it.

going to try it on the mini mill from the christmas raffle

Get a 25 inch bar on it, we had one on ours before it broke last year, was a animal of a saw 😄😄

yes,thats what i plan to get, for cutting up those hard knotty lumps. should extend the life of my 80cc saws.

i was wondering, how frequently do you need to use the oiler button and do i need to use it at all with the shorter bar?
