Ah, the Rancher was the first saw that I bought new, many years ago......1981 I think it was. Worked it for 3 years, changed the carb on it from a grey top one and it worked well for another 12 years, then i sold it to my younger brother who still uses it to cut slabs for the kiln at his pottery.

Only other saw I had that was as reliable (actually more reliable in hot weather) was my old 166.

What a complete waste of money the mitox saw is/was I've done lass than 3 hrs with it and the chance stops at the slightest thing even trying to cut 4-5" limbs

Good job it came with a 2 year warranty then a brand new saw shouldn't be bogging down in the cut.

I am assuming you have checked it is oiling ok (bar doesn't need the groove cleaning) & the chain is tensioned properly (not too tight) to rule out user error before taking it back.

Yep done all that my next thing to try is putting the bar & chain from my old saw on as I know they both work fine. Now I just need it to stop raining lol
