Well if I had had more time I probably would have, just never occurred to me that it would come across that way.

I don't know, I bet its not Germany anymore.

Simply copied from a trade publication, I have no vested interest. Just thought Dolmar fans would be interested. Ok?

DOLMAR CHAINSAWS AVAILABLE For the British market Dolmar chainsaws built a fine reputation for rugged reliability and performance in the British market in the 70s and 80s. Founded in Hamburg, Germany in 1927, Dolmar became part of Makita in 1991 and has received substantial investment to become the geographical hub of Makita's chainsaw development and production. In certain countries, the Dolmar brand has continued to lead the market, whilst in the UK for instance, the blue Makita branding has been adopted to benefit from the Company's power tool market leadership. The technical specifications and performance are identical and now the orange Dolmar saws will be available through certain dedicated Makita garden machinery distributors. Seven Dolmar saws are available including the 31cc top-handle PS310TH with 30cm bar; the PS32CTLC 35cm bar lightweight, entry level saw; the PS350SC and the 34.7cc and PS420SC, 42.4cc semi-professional specification saws with 35cm and 45cm bar lengths respectively. The 50cc PS500C model is known as the "farmers" saw, an economic model with full professional specification. The Dolmar inventory for the UK market is completed with the PS6100 saw which does the job of a felling saw and debranching saw in just one machine. This rugged 61cc saw weighs just 6kg, delivers 4.5hp and runs up to 13,800rpm. The full specification includes a 45cm bar, the easy-change, long life air-filter system for extended working time between services with low fuel consumption and ultra-low emissions. The top of the Dolmar range is the 78.5cc PS7910 saw with 5.7hp, SLR exhaust system for fuel efficiency and low emissions. All Dolmar chainsaws feature effortless starting either with spring assisted pull cord or decompression valve, vibration damping system of sprung fulcrums which effectively separate the machine motor and drive from the operator grip handles, catalytic or other exhaust systems for low emissions and fuel efficiency, simple lateral or tool-less chain tension adjustment, automatic oil pumps and quick acting inertia and manual chain brake for safe operation.

Most open minded and rational comment i've heard on this thread! The saw must be standard though.

In our industry really I suppose. I've not been on arbtalk for a good while so I can't comment on that.

Oh, you know just the usual, pens, keyrings, hats, teeshirts.................and so on.

I should add both held in high regard:thumbup1:

Well I've worked out who 2 of them are today!

Yes I heard it wasn't encouraged and not official. Some are for it some aren't.

Do Husky have representatives on Arbtalk now?

Look its only what I was told by someone who works for Husqvarna at the time. I was offered a job at Newton Aycliffe but didn't want to move up north as it would appear no one from Stonehouse did either.

Where is Andy White based now then?

I agree! If it did force air in the winter running flap that you open to draw warm air over the exhaust and cylinder simply wouldn't work, air would go the other way.

The main reason for air injection if thats what you mean was to remove the heavier particles before they got to the filter.
