X2^^ or a husky

I gotta blue and red super xl. Needs a new carb though

Got it fired up. lol Thing sounds like a Funny Car compared to my Stihl.

Doesn’t like to stay running when she idles down though.

I cut about 15 cords a year. Had a husky that was a workhorse for about 15 yrs before getting a nee Stihl last year. 14 years to go before the verdict is out on which is better.

No chain brake and it doesn't look like it has much in the way of anti-vibration built into it.

No sissies back in the day.

That's right. Carpal tunnel on the other hand....

on BOTH hands

Much easier on the arms when it’s chewing on a log.

Looks like a Remington, my grandfather bought one years ago and they gave him a Remington nylon 66 , 22 rifle along with the saw.
He said after running the saw he understood why they gave him the rifle, and that was to shoot yourself after running the saw.

lol

Make sure you know and use the correct oil ratio. Might be a 24 to 1 engine or earlier. Surely not 50 to 1.

16:1 Charles.

Sounds like a funny car, lol

That's the thing I remember most about the one my friend had.

after runnin a lot of new saws i get safety scared just pickin up one of my ancestors saws around.aint no wonder they were as dangerous as they were.

The thing is a beast! I found the sweet spot with the choke and used it this morning to cut up the trees I cut down yesterday. The manual oiler is easier to operate than I first thought.

Manual oiler saw is the way to go if you use the same saw to cut ice and wood.

rem branded Homelite

I have a homelite , I leave it on the shelf in the garage and run the J-Reds

great if your into antiques , shelf if your into having wood get cut on a schedule

Thank you for that nugget of wisdom.
