Joined …Chainsaw torque is 68 inlbs, your hyd motor you claim 166inlbs. So first glance would suggest you have about 2.4 times more power to pull the .404 chain than the 3120 chainsaw. Next you will need to look at the hp your hyd motor produces, 166inlb=9.6ft lbs. 9.6ftlbs x 4700rpms =8.7hp.If your really interested in just the 311 or the 391 and can afford either one get the 391. They are basicly the exact same saws with the 391 having more power. The power is why it cost more, other than they are the same. Power wise the 391 is nipping right the the heals of the 362.Sep 8, 2008. #1. The guy at the Stihl Dealership asked why I would want to convert over to the 3/8" pitch chain from .325" pitch on my 260, I told him I wanted to be able to swap out with my .031av which also has a 16" bar (which is the truth). He said he hardly ever sells a 3/8' chain and bar for smaller saws like the 260, I believe him as he ...Tsumura bars are high quality and moderately priced. Baileys has some good German made carlton bars for $30 that are pretty good IME. Personally I'd rather get deals on bars that are of decent quality. If you break it, bend it, etc, it's not a big deal. If you drop $100+ on a bar, it is a big deal.May 20, 2021 · Jun 22, 2021. #1.

A workmate has offered me a TOPSO chainsaw, his "italian stallion" as he calls it.Sep 29, 2023 · Husky 550XP is a good saw but Husqvarna is having issues with supplying parts. Echo makes a good saw as well, believe the 4910 is still available but that saw really needs muffler work to realize it’s full potential. The echos are hard to beat for the price. Not the fastest but dead reliable and easy starting. Partner started making saws in about 1955, and as far as I know they were independent until 1979. They made mostly Pro saws in that period, but some Semi-Pro versions were made. About the same was the case with Jonsereds, from 1954 until 1979, and Husqvarna from 1959, until 1978 (or a bit earlier).I drained the tank completely, washed it out 3 times, first with turps, then degreaser, then preparation solvent. I dried it with compressed air, then preheated it. Prep is critical to success if you are going to glue. I keyed the surface lightly with some 80 grit sandpaper then glued.For the past 7 days I've been searching the internet for an owners manual for my "new" Homelite 240 chainsaw. I know that it's 39.3cc, that the fuel/oil ratio is 32:1, that it can run either a 16" or 18 guide bar. The spec sheet has been found thanks to a link posted to ArboristSite. I will continue my search, but if anyone can help me find one ...It seems most 16 inch chains are 56 links. I'm guessing maybe the bar is a tad wider (taller) than normal? Anyhow - on Bailey's it shows both 56 and 57 link chains for that model. While I can buy the 57 I have another chainsaw, Echo CS-400 with a 16 inch bar, which uses 16 inch chain with 56 links.Feb 1, 2017. #1. finally got around to spending a day and a tank of fuel with my "new" 2015 makita 6100P chainsaw. my first impressions are very favorable , the saw is very well made and logically laid out-- starts in one or two pulls , it even started on two pulls after i flooded it. three non "pro" things about this saw as it comes new--.Chainsaw .

Under reduced compression on a good tight saw the comp is still over 120 lbs, with the comp release closed it should be 140 or over. If a saw has less than 100 from the outset then it likely will be very hard to start and flood out easily.Chainsaw .
