Dolmar 64xx/73xx/79xx series, smurfs and solo 665/675/681 thread

[Wilhelm]

Dolmar PS-7310 with 24" B&C, Carlton full chisel skip chain, round filed bucked up this turkey oak log not finishing the cuts as each cut was pinching the B&C.
I hit something embedded in the bark and rocked the chain.
Smacked in some wedges every two-three rounds and made "finishing cuts" with my Dolmar PS-6400 with 20" B&C, TriLink semi chisel full comp round filed.





Including the 79xx THE best saws ever!!!

Anyone got a project or a parts pile of a 6400-7900 red or blue or mixed no preference kicking around that they are looking to get rid of? Just picked up a ebay find 52mm aftermarket top end would like to compare it with oe 52mm and 54mm so guess it's time to build another

Is this it...double check? Dolmar 038-130-071

Ordering has become more of a pain as they want a makita part number now I was told.

Turns out that's top decomp, but change the 1 to a 0 at the end and it's the left side decomp.

One IPL featuring both Dolmar and Makita model!
Interchangeable parts have the same part numbers.
Parts like decals and differently colored case parts have individual part numbers.

Have these two coming in

Dustin, this is the part number for the older top ends: 038-130-070

That’s the starter side decomp, but with the piston from the 7910, so the updated replacement top end for the older saws. Think DCS7901.

You can find those for about $150 if you look in the right places.

Thanks for the help! Looking forward to an all red one.

My new to me PS-7900 in action, first cuts since I purchased her.
Yes, immediately 36" B&C 3/8" full comp in turkey oak.

Touched up the chain, switched from Archer FastFiler roller guide to Husqvarna roller guide.
The Husqvarna roller guide places the file much higher into the tooth, curious to see how the chain will perform as it was a little agressive filed with the Archer FastFiler.

Sadly I've sold all my 7900/7910 family of saws except one and a couple parts saws.
In the past...

One tank of fuel, 11 rounds/bucking cuts.
Chain felt much smoother, had less bite though - still nice.



I love these saws, may have to get a couple more!

I have quite a few saws, I'll probably be okay lol.
It was my plan for many yrs, when the time came to build my barn, sell some saws, one step back, to take two forward.
Rocking the plan .

Little something to get the thread moving, no reason to let it sit this long.

 

[RI Chevy]

Ummm. I think you need a longer bar to cut those. Lol
Put that saw into some real wood...lol
