Hi there. Just wondering if the 201t vibes are noticibly better than the 200t?

 

Was chogging down today with an older 200 and noticed/ could feel all the vibes into my hand more than usual. Maybe av rubbers are shot! But wondered if the 201 is much better?

 

Btw i dont use gloves.

 

Cheers chris

Yes they are alot better, it's a much more comfortable/ergonomic saw to use compared to the 200t, hopefully the gutless engine will be sorted soon, then it will be a great saw.

Just last week had to retire one of my 200t's with a 201t very reluctant to do so after reading a lot of threads on here, but i find it much nicer to use in the tree as mentioned before with it being ergonomically better, slightly lighter and much less vibes up the arm, due to the new spring type av mount i think.

 

Even with a 14" bar seems to have enough guts when chogging down till its time to send up a bigger saw.

the 201t is rubbish sold mine after 3 months and got a new 200t always gasping when started and not ready to work till really warm , show it a big cut and it would bog down . shop richened it up but still no good everyone who tried it agreed . rubbish

only time i had problems with vibration is when the av rubbers were on there way out.

the other thing i did was gripping the saw too tight and that was causing my hand and arm to ache :)
