LOVELY little Dolmar

Does this saw use a throttle cable?

 

I've been playing around with a DCS5000 which I guess must be very similar, and so far it's absolutely aces! I'm not absolutely convinced that using a throttle cable isn't unnecessary over-engineering though...

 

Build is bonkers good.

 

Yeah the 5000s seem very sweet; supposedly the newer 5031 has more under the bonnet but my trial of one didn't prove that; my 5105 definately ate it good.

TCD - i know you imported your Dolly, before that where did you buy your Echo 510 from?

 

Too many options - when's the video coming about of that Dolly?

 

Cheers!

510 came from J&M garden machinery, saltash. Ideal saw for port work, but dol outguns it in stock.

And the Dol if/when ported? Is there much room for port work?

no still on .325 RSC. Bar is dolmars own (which well outlasts the husq ones ) which is odd between 15 and 16"!

hello have you had any dealings with the ps7900 /ps7901 just wondered if it was worth importing on or get a makita dcs7901 both saw saws look a good power to weight ratio

lots of 7901 lovers on here; personally I don't like it; two warranty claims was enough. I'll bet the PS7900 runs better too.
