79 I think.Thats nuts lol
I tell ya those 590’s gotta be one of the best bang for your buck saws out there. She pulled that 24” buried pretty good. Great saw for a guy that just wants to cut some firewood and get some work done. Was it muffler modded?UPS brought me like new 590 today, same bar and chain as the one above.
You're right, they are the best bang for your buck. That one hasn't had anything done to it.I tell ya those 590’s gotta be one of the best bang for your buck saws out there.

If you still have that saw in working condition, I'd like to see you drop bits of JB weld in the intake while it is running just to see what JB weld does to an engine.
That’s a great 346 there20” Bar, 3/8 full comp depth gauges at about .030” or so if I had to guess, cutting near bar length seasoned sugar maple.
Might only tach 14k, but it’s still got 11 of ‘em in the cut20” Bar, 3/8 full comp depth gauges at about .030” or so if I had to guess, cutting near bar length seasoned sugar maple.

I do like those 5 series. The feel like they are lectric or something.. can hardly tell they are running because of how smooth the anti vibe is!My first 572 port job. Man what a great saw! Now I want one for myself
Yes indeed man. I ran this saw today for a few hours and it was very comfortable. I had that huge 2 year old dry oak blowdown to clean up and I used the 572 for most of the trunk. Running 36” it pulled nice and I didn’t feel like I was holding a hornets nest lolI do like those 5 series.

Oh I feel you. Running that freaking 281 for 4-5 hours makes my hands feel like they want to fall off. Granted, the 281/88 anti vibe isnt THAT bad, im just a poosy lol.Yes indeed man.
