New Dolmar PS-6100!!

[nnero]

I will be getting a new Dolmar 6100 this week. I am selling my recently rebuilt 041 and my dads MS290 to fund the purchase (hopefully the 041 will be sold tomorrow). Masterminds thread was enough to sway me to this saw. I will update with pics and other info when I can. My dad and I are both excited.

Question: Can a second spike be added to the clutch cover?

Thanks

Excellent choice!

The clutch cover has no holes to fix an outer spike. And unfortunately, when i look at the 2 cover bolts, i don't think you can fix an outer spike with these bolts. The only way is probably to do something by yourself...

Thanks, its not a huge deal.

Not at the current time unless you want to fab up a set for it. That's what I do on the 421. I take 5105 spikes and modify the inner to fit and outer fits over the studs

Where can order 5105 spikes?

I'd guess any Dolmar dealer should be able to get them for you. There are a few here on AS that are site sponsors.

You get a stock demo in again. Let me, Jeff and Jim know and we will come up to test out the stock and ported ones out at a mini gtg if you got test wood. You have to be under a hour from us I figure.

Thats doable

Good idea Nate!... Would you happen to have a picture of that?

outer spike needs touched up with a roloc disc to fit the clutch cover. inner one is a pain to get lined up with the outer and tabs welded on

 

[nnero]

Thanks for all the info on the spikes. Sounds like a fun project do later on. On a side note, I went to start the 041 to make sure it was all good to go for the sale tomorrow and there's no spark. It hadn't given me a single problem until then. The guy wants me to give him a call back when I get it straightened out. But that's a problem for another thread. Lol. Can't wait to try out the 6100!!

Good to know, thanks Nate and Andy!

I will snap a couple pictures so you can see where the outer one needs tweaked and what the inner one looks like before and after. I'm not totally happy with the inner but it has been holding up for a few months now
