Lol, just pictured you with the rag tied on the front of your head

Speaking of oilers, mine oils well. Even when it’s sitting lol. Mine is a early saw, which I’ve heard they came out with a improved oil hose or something on later ones. That said... the saw works fine. It’s only a slow weep when sitting for extended periods. If it gets worse no biggie... I’ll buy the new hose. Just another bit of info I’d like to contribute to the thread.

That’s great to know, I’m guessing mine doesn’t have the green one, it’s a first or second year production saw. I’ll have to pm you.

I'm not sure if green is the old one or new either. Found a bunch on eBay at a good price and bought them. 5, 6, 8...I'm not sure how many there are. All new

Wait, what did I miss? What’s a 630?

I’m curious about this one as well. All I can find puts them right next to the 6400.

I was thinking more like this kind of 630.

The Dolmar PS-630 is a PS-6400 marketed as a cheaper alternative to the Pro line hence the "100" designation.
It was an attempt to gain more sales traffic for the 64cc model.
The PS-630 was supposedly sold at a more affordable price tag than the PS-6400.

That's what I heard.

All parts should interchange among the PS-630/64xx/73xx/79xx.

Aha! Thanks Wilhelm! That makes sense. All the pics I’ve seen of the 630, looks to have the decomp plugged. Other than that they look exactly the same as a 6400. All the specs and documentation look the same as well.

Solo 665/675/681 are welcome in this thread too!

The Dolmar PS-630 is a Dolmar PS-6400 with a different sticker.

My Dolmar PS-6400 doesn't have the DeCo hole on her cylinder and the cylinder cover has a non drilled DeCo recess on the left side.
On later production the DeCo moved to the right handed side of the saws.

I guess they (Dolmar/Makita) couldn't make up their minds.

Cool. Interesting how they’ve made the changes like that. I have one left side decomp saw now, used to have another one, and a few with right hand decomp.

My stock 7900 lives with a 28" bar. That and some skip it semi skip makes a real nice felling saw with a full wrap. If I needed a 28" bar for cutting firewood all day in big material, yeah I'd go 395 but for something I'm gonna carry around, the 7900 works really nicely.

I've got the 2007 year model of both. My 6400 came as a red top with deco. The ps-630 is a black top with no deco.

They are old enough to have the higher rev coils and new enough to have the AV limiters in stock form.

Really nice 7900P Makita for sale on Another Site....been ran like once and never seen wood.

Comes with HD filter kit already installed.
