How long have you run one ? Is it a auto tune carb ?Thanks
-
As above are they any good , been to look at some saws today was also talking to the guy there about autotune and he said they are not having as many problems now !
-
Never used one but looks a nice saw
-
Obviously not a long term test but really rating it .It was in a farm machinery mag. Quote its the ideal saw to have around on the farm,especially as it didn't once grunt at being asked to cut through a 24 " wide tree truck . Its light enough to use all day, while offering the versatility to be the only saw in the farmers shed .Its a good ,straightforward chainsaw . Strong and robust. unquote . They are the closing remarks.

I ve seen a write up about these saws are they any good ? My logging partner runs a 290 and is interested in updating his saw . I know they are not the same grade of saw that you professional guys use so what are peoples views ? Thanks

case mx270 replied to TimberCutterDartmoor's topic in Chainsaws
TCD I find this really interesting and yes I do mean it ,thanks Ian -
I know its been done on here before but I m interested in the above saw ,I don't make a living using saws but I cut a lot of firewood so is this saw worth a look ,its within my budget and I m not really looking else where.Just interested in peoples thoughts on it really . Thanks Ian
-
Cheers Andrew
-
I know there are good reasons for using aspen but how does it compare on price ? Do you still mix 2 stroke with it ? Thanks Ian
-
Right I ve got Oregon bars and chains ( I m a very part-time operator of a saw)are these a good choice or am I missing something bearing in mind I don't make a living cutting up wood .
-
Right educate me please, I ve heard you guys taking about porting an engine .What does this mean how's it done what's the cost ( estimated) ? Also I heard you guys talking about other engine mods about mufflers and spark arresters ? What's that all about ? I have a Makita 9010 is this prime for modding ? Thanks Ian
-
Matty thanks for your kind offer its a 3/8 0.058 which should be 96 drive links but they made a mistake and made it 95 !!!!!! Oh yes its an Oregon chain .
-
I ve had a chain made up but its one drive link to short and its been a while since it was made and company don't want to know .Can it be extended by one link and is this OK to do because I asked where I got it from and they didn't want to know. Or am I better putting it on eBay its a brand new chain never been used ! Thanks Ian
-
So when and where can we get them in the UK because there is not a lot on web about them
-
Thanks for replies , what in StihL camp around 50 cc would be a good used saw then ?
-
So what models of stihl and husky in the 50 Cc bracket would be worth a look ? Thanks Ian
-
Today we were talking at work about the problems people are having with new saws such as auto tune , with this in mind is finding and running a older saw such as a StihL 029 or a husky 350 a good option ? Also for a older saw how long would parts be available to keep the saw running ? The guy I was with has just had his saws nicked and he was looking to restore his husky 55 to use instead of buy a new saw.
-
Andrew still very interested in the 5105 but could you give me a price on the other 50 cc models that dolmar do so I can compare with the makita models .Thanks Andrew here's to a good 2016. Ian
-
Happy new year guys and girls
-
OK thanks Andrew
-
Which out of these is the pro model ,semi pro model and which is the farmers saw ? Thanks
-
What's the difference between Makita 5121 , 5030 and 5000 I understand there are differences in HP I was looking for operator opinions ? And as a part time user would I notice the difference ? Also I found a used 5000 that's not had a lot of work for half the price of a new one are they a good reliable saw ? And yes I m interested in a Dolmar as well .Thanks I know there are lots of variables but I would like to glean as much information as possible before jumping in .Cheers.
