WELL SAID MY FRIEND VERY TRUE the dolmar 115i was a good saw true the rubbers wouldnt last long you can still buy the 115 have a look on dolmar.com and see what you think

i would buy one too that would be awesome idea i grew up with a man who is in his late 70's now i can only ever remember him owning three saws 1. mcCulloch 10-10 automatic 2 jonsereds 49 sp 3 sachs dolmar 117 the first two saws he still has wrapped up in a paper bag and then a hessian sacks , both of them are immaculate and they still run well the sachs dolmar he gave to me when i left school so he is responsible for me liking all the lesser saws, and catching the D bug:thumbup:

good evening just a small question to you i was in a large garden sales shop in a city northwest of you and i was enquiring about aspen as i had some other stuff to pick up, and i explained that i was concerned about the quality of the pump petrol, and would it be sensible to use aspen in my old vintage saws and villiers engines and they advised me not too use it as it will burn to hot and it could do more damage than normal top grade pump petrol with fuel fit added and husqvarna 2 stroke oil i was hoping you could tell me if this is true or not thanks shavey
-
even dolmar/makita arent making a saw over 80cc now
-
i think jonsered have a version of the husky 445e its the cs 2245s
-
yes thats very true eddy it just seems a good honest little saw that likes making a noise everybody who has used it likes the "yellow peril" cheers
-
its going brilliant i love it , i cant fault it for the size i was even thinking of getting some black scratch cover to keep it shiny :laugh1:
-
hello marc as T.D.C said i can vouch for the mcCulloch cs450 elite 100% its a good little saw it starts well and cuts well very economical a good buy its basicly a husky 445e the solo chainsaw i have had 651 proffi and it was a very good strong saw only reason i sold it was the dolmar PS 5105 came along a smaller dolmar is another choice made in germany cheers shavey
-
good evening it is a bit difficult to get spares but there are some around there were a few versions of the cc chainsaw the earlier versions from early to mid sixties had one nut holding the chain gaurd in place and had one handle on the back rather than the traditional loop handle if you go onto ebay.de ther are some for sale but if you could send me a photo and serial nos of the saw i can help determine what year and model i have just sent you a pm with photo thanks shavey
