Used to use them on the job site. As long as you keep er clean it will perform flawlessly. Let the gas system get grungy and you'll want to hurl it as far as you can.

I have 2 of them, quit using then about 6 yrs ago. Got tired of cleaning them
and they are pricey to operate. Work good when they are new and clean.

Default Chainsaws

I could never stop using a saw, need it every day when out on the trapline, from cutting firewood to clearing trail, fallen trees. The old timer that trapped this line before just used an axe, still see the marks.

what do most of you guys use for a saw on the line?

picked this up a few mounths ago, and it's already paid for it's self. sharp chain means less fuel, faster cutting. i've been just taking 3 chains out, razor sharp. as soon as i "rock" a chain i just switch to a fresh chain.

got it off kiiji
