    Dolmar

    hello its a PS-7910 there are few differences from the PS-7900 yes its a little heavier and a fraction less power but not that you can notice with a 24'' bar its feels well balanced and powerful , this model defiantely is a step forward others may disagree :thumbup:

    dcs 5000

    thats a good price there are coils on ebay that are double and triple that price just put dolmar part number 181 143 204 in google search this coil was used in lots of makitas and some dolmars around 46cc to 50cc its a red coil around mar 2010 some models where upgraded to a black coil part number 181 143 205 from an orignal makita parts lists :thumbup:
  5. as wyk says good metal chassis alot of saw for the money ideal for the home owner and the profi silver tops are fantastic but was quite expensive solo has just merged with alko and there are alot of discounted saws for sale cant complain about solo :thumbup:
  6. THATS OK FOR BIGGER STUFF but 1st & 2nd thinnings it would be a madness to accept that price you would have to cut and sned 130 -160 tree's a day to warrant a decent wage
  7. yes i signed the petition last month must be done is there any garagea left with ethenol free petrol maybe murco or total
  8. the artic cat diesel quad is strong and economical weve had ours for two years and with the low range and winch as standard very good machine

    there are three saws in that professional range the 115 the PS-5105 the PS-6100 the PS-6410 has been discontinued now as the 6100 seems to be taking its place and doing well in the states and mainland europe the PS-4605 is another model that i havent tried yet but its in the proffesional range and similar specs to the husqvarna 346xp :thumbup:

    Eddy which model would you condider trying if you had a choice
  12. shavey

    Dolmar

    very good classic saw runs nice one of the easiest starting saws you will get in that size but parts are getting scarce now they do suffer with the age old sachs dolmar problems weak or broken chain brake and ignition coil failure it uses a ducati coil and when they start going wrong the spark seems to weaken when hot it shares every part with the 116SI only difference is cylinder and piston :thumbup:

    thats true paper is only a guide very often machines dont live up to these expectations specs for most saws are'nt excactly 100%

    No sorry i wont be doing echo at the moment ive invested heavily into the dolmar brand when that is producing a good enough turnover i can look elsewhere and i think the next brand would be SOLO as there pro saws are well made again i would'nt be selling anything i would'nt be happy using myself but lot's of members on here are more than happy about there echo's

    you may know this but was this saw the same as the dolmar PS-510 or the PS-5100s as some of these did have heat distribution problems in the early days :thumbup:

    Dolmar

    hello jesse which models have you got how are you finding your saws :thumbup:
  24. shavey

    dcs 5000

    hello bill why dont you put the 15''bar on then get the saw tuned by somebody you know and trust can tune a saw properly and you will see when the saw is up to the optimum revs if there are any running problems, the coil could be breaking down
