Makita Questions !

Nice looking saw Cory!

 

Which is which?

 

Ill definetly consider it !! I have my heart set on the HD....I just cant tell why

 

I just wanna buy every Makita I see...they are just cool looking !!!

 

Updated black tops with painted black DP muffler.

 

Love the "snowmobile" starter handle !! Great idea

 

I think the handle is actually off a 'rescue saw' big like that so a fireman can start the saw with gloves on. Lots of saw racers use them to make sure they don't blow the race. You can buy them from almost any on the manufacturers, in the 'service 'variations' part of the IPL.

 

They're pretty cheap way to keep from getting bit by a big saw with lots of compression.

 

The ones I like are stihl 460 rescue saw handles.

Put one on my dad's 3300 as he has gotten older and the oem handle was hurting his hand on starts. I used them everywhere for racing or higher psi saws. Jacked some of them way up for cold start racing.

 

I really like them . Might get a few myself !

 

The 3300 my dad bought new, that I put a rescue handle on. This made my dads saw still startable for him. 21 years of use and still going.

 

Just make sure those high cube saws don't rip your shoulder out instead of rip the small starter handle out of your hand when they "snap back".
