DOLMAR/MAKITA The Official Sachs Dolmar Dolmar Makita Dolmar Chainsaws Thread

[Wilhelm]

Glad to see there is a cute Miss Dolmar for 2019. I am sad that she is holding two battery saws!

I was thinking the same thing.

So will they fit the hd air filter? Hard to tell from the pictures. Guess my next question is how much? Thanks Wilhelm.

Look at the German web shop under PS-6400 PS-7300 PS-7900.
HD AF cover is much bigger and always black.
I'll shoot You a PM after work.

I bought this 7900 about 4 years ago it was on a lewis winch.
Here it is wearin a 28 bar, in fir. Asplundh was clearing dead trees by the power line.
About a 5 minute drive and if ya done get em quick they are gone.
Saw may have 8 tanks thru it now. This is the middle of the tree, I got the butt previously.

You need a red cylinder cover for Your saw.

l have the red air cover,,,
That will be fine for me
I sure like the orange,
But if ya see very cheap or free red cover let me know.

Regarding the discussion concerning the right hood-color for a 7900:
I don't agree. IMHO the orange-red hoods look much inferior than the black ones, resembling the low end Sachs-Dolmar 112
which also was completely orange and inferior to its sibling 114 which had a little bit more power and, as an eye-candy a black
air-filter cover (later models had all black hoods).

These days I managed to close a wide yawning gap in my tiny collection:
Sachs-Dolmar 105 'Black & White' in remarkable good shape for a remarkable
good price:

In case you don't know - There were 4 models produced as 'Black & White' special edition saws late 1985 for about 4 months:
Sachs-Dolmar 105
Sachs-Dolmar 108
Sachs-Dolmar 110 - the only Sachs-Dolmar saw with white plastic parts
Sachs-Dolmar 112.

The latter three I already had on my shelves, the 105 missing until now.

about a month later, the 105 is ready and running:



This one is the best preserved of all my Black&White saws, just need a decent SACHS-DOLMAR chain-bar for it.

Color coding chainsaws failed with the Makita takeover!

Nowadays a red or black cover is no longer determining quality class.
Unless the PS-6400, PS-7300 & PS-7900 are considered "home owner" or "hobby".

Tru, as it turn out, its just a matter of taste if you prefer orange hoodies or black ones.
I for one like the black ones better.

Yes and this is her larger sister:

Sweet saws here! My uncle was stationed in West Germany in the mid-80's. Sure wish he was a saw fan, he could have brought back a real treasure trove. Ironically, when he got back home he discovered his saw was stolen!!

Those black and white saws really look sweet.

 

[ajschainsaws]

[old_sir_henry]

Gorgeous!

Thanx!

Here comes the third Black&White in my collection: Sachs-Dolmar 110 Black&White



This is the only Dolmar model with white dyed plastic parts. These usually turn yellowish over the decades, mine as well but fortunately not too bad. The saw looks better in the pictures than in reality, however IMHO it is a very pretty saw.

 

[old_sir_henry]

The next saw I'll present will be a 112B&W, from there on, we'll gonna explore the colorfulness of this specific model and in the course of it, we will be approaching page 166 of this thread, so all you folks prepare your cameras and then post pics of your 166 on page 166

 

[Fishnuts2]

Good idea! I’ll have to dig my 166 out and get a new picture to post.
