Red Max chainsaws

I almost think the bar oil thing is a manufacturer decision because my Echo 2511 saws over oil. Irritatingly so.

50:1 must not be an EPA mandate either as I've recently purchased an MTD 2 stroke product and it has 40:1 listed in the manual and molded into the tank above the cap.

 

well that tells you where that one was made right there

 

My 041 FB manual from the early to mid 70’s says 40:1, and many Stihl saws from year 2000 forward (and likely some before) use 50:1.

I could be wrong, but seems like my 041FB has an oiler adjustment on it. Pretty sure it does.

 

That would be Japan like most other Echo saws

 

Thats the one you got from me I believe. Been doing ok for ya?

 

Tis a shame about Dolmar. I remember when the 7900 was the talk of the town in 08' or so over on AS. Led me to getting one in 09', even though I already had (and still have) my 460 mag.

The electric thing by Makita is just to appease the woke crowd. Wish they'd of never bought Dolmar. I used to love my Makita products... (air compressor, circular saw, impact, cordless drill, recip saw, jigsaw, etc)

but I haven't been overly impressed with my last few purchases.

 

It’s been good Steve… I can see it continuing to be good as long as I don’t smoosh it like the one Joe ported for me. That little Matermind stickers still hanging on for dear life

 

That was the telltale sign. Sticker flapping in da breeze.
