Two NEW 60cc contenders imminent...

[Adam]

Look on Radmore & Tucker website, much bigger £ diff between echo and husq i think

 

Mine was from the local dealer where the husqvarna was £595inc vat and the echo was £575 inc vat. With such a small price difference I personally am more inclined to buy the saw with the better known name. That is just me

Though. If anyone had the echo I would be very willing to try one out and see what they are like!

not getting into the debate re the two makes its been done. but going back many years. Dolmar was the main saw along with jonsered and poulon. did not see sthil or husky,

they where the dogs do da of saws and very well made. looking at buying one of the small ones. see they also do a nice topper. and prices look very good.

OREGON® Hand Held Chain Saw Replacement Parts

 

V hard trying to figure that over onto the oregon product selector guide; think my 5105 dolly is a normal husky mount... will go have a look...

 

Also, would be interested in one of those lighter sugi bars (with resin bits?) to fit as I want to go 3/8 on the 5105 from .325...

So two questions,

Are the dolmar and makita versions the same, apart from the colour of course? I can't understand why they wouldn't be..

 

Can I buy a dolmar in the uk? I'd prefer a red saw to a blue one.

No, there are differences between Dol and Mak, atleast in the 5105/5030 which would make me choose Dolly, principally a different carb which imo is pretty major! Think either in this thread or another dolmar one I've elaborated on the differences further...

 

I have heard that they are considering changing from Mak to Dol in the UK which wd be fantastic, but thd dealer network needs sorting out. I have been importing them from the US for a while now and no regrets or parts / warranty issues cos they don't break!

I think you are comparing the old model makita with the new dolmar, the makita site now lists both the old and the new ranges.

 

The makita spec:

And the dolmar: DOLMAR - PS-6100

 

Same saw I think? the old models are different and I suspect the dolmar range has moved on faster than the makita..

My Dol PS5105 and Mak 5030 are both 2012 models; I will pop down mst and look at the latest ea mak carb. Will add photo's...

This doesn't exactly answer your question, but it's something handy everyone should have, uh, handy;
