Saw investments.

This arrived for me today Mark.

Thought long and hard about a replacement for my tired old 440, which was a great saw.

 

I know from experience that Huskys probably require a bit more love on the maintenance front, but I think it will be worth it.

 

My 200T is at the menders, and when that needs replacing I'll also go with the 540.

 

I have heard from a few folks, including a Stihl dealer who is always dead straight with me that the 201's are improving though.[ATTACH]135162[/ATTACH]

 

Flippy caps eh? Get an 8t rim on that, and see what it can really do!

So at the moment it's looking like huskies are coming out on top. I can put forward the information to the men with the check books and see what they say i would imagine that they will just buy the cheapest but then when they turn out to be crap the "i told you so" quote might make an appearance, thanks for your thoughts.

Ran up the 560 today, screaming it setting the auto tune in some big rounds.

It felt very fast and agile, and started from warm on the first pull every time.

I hope I'm still impressed in a few years time!

How about Echo 5 years warranty. Run a old cs3400 top handle with 12 inch bar great saw ran it last week reducing large Beech. Think a couple of lads run newer models on here.

SORRY 2 Years professional warranty
