    I have a soft spot in my heart for a good 044 but the 400 should eat it’s lunch!

    I had a question for you guys with the 400's. How well does the stock oiler work? Will this saw keep a 25" bar lubed, or is a 20 bar about it?

    25 is the upper limit. But the 461R oiler will swap in. Or you can buy a couple parts from the 461R oiler and swap them in yourself

    Yep, I did that to my 362 and it made all of the difference. Just wondering if it would be needed, with the 25" as it's pretty much my favorite bar length. I don't know if I will ever get a 400, but just in case.
