Redmax Thread

Surely I'm not the only one.

Love my G5300, strong runner, starts reliably with no fumbling or fussing. My only complaint is that it puts out bar oil whether it's running or not.

Well, looks like Redmax is about to come back. Is your saw a twin to another or a Redmax original?

From what I understand, Zenoah is the actual name of the Japanese firm that produces Redmax machinery. It was originally owned by Komatsu, who sold it to Husky in 2007. I think Zenoah is a better and more serious sounding name than Redmax but that's just me. Yeah, I'm weird and think about these things!

GS 5300 is a husky 353.

Most of the parts (that I've seen) are marked "Made in Sweden"

Ok, I'm going to bring this thread out of a coma for a bit. Anybody like the Redmax GZ3100T? I saw one on Fleabay and thought it looked like a nice little saw.

 

[Graf]

are you sure about z of GZ? ok for g3100t, an outdated model with reed valve admission

 

[FergusonTO35]

Yeah, you're right. There is one on Fleabay right now. Looks really similar to my Echo CS-3000, which is a really good saw. I'm tempted to give the guy a lowball offer on it.

Anybody run the GZ3500T much? There is a place on Fleabay that has 'em for $269.00 shipped right now. I use my 30-40cc saws the most and this looks like a nice one.
