They are good and easy to deal with!

It's been shared how nice the auto tune is. I agree totally. I have been cutting when a front comes through and you can hear it changing. Or if it's sittin̈g on truck when you start it you can hear it change right away. I know that at least for me I wouldn't have taken time to adjust one...

I have several and log walnut with them. All ported. If you keep em serviced well they are the perfect saws imo. Wish they had em years ago. The 500 is ,so floppy and alot more vibrating than a 572. In my area the dealer has em in buckets where the owner finds they are too expensive to fix if...

All of the 800 series i ran i didn't have a problem with any mufflers. Only thing I thought was bad was the placement. Logging walnut half your cutting is flat on the ground and if it was dry it would give you a dust shower constantly. Or snow in your face if snow on the ground. But that was...

They always said the 81 was like a ported saw anyway. Cut lots of walnut with them and the 850's. They run well the way they are. And remember if you are doing any flush cutting the exhaust is bouncing right back at ya.

If I remember right I thought the side plates of the handles got heated up

Sure hope it dries up to log some more

Good morning! Sure is nice for February

All I can tell is that i don't think elm at all. Do you guys have any thornless locust down there?

Welcome to the forum where everybody is an expert!

I have split wood and put where it's always in the sun in winter and it sure works on drying it out.

Mike Gott also a member on here has some semi-skip Oregon. Runs smooth and he can spin one up for ya.

That's a good buy. I gotta couple of em.

I have a saw blade with a handle at each end. Does not need a roller nose that you can use till ya get the ionsereds going!
