Hello fellow saw users.I have a question,in the late 80;s I bought a Stihl 034AV Super.I liked it really well,it cut great.My question does anyone know the specs on it?Also what model is equal to it today
There is a site that list the specs for most of the Stihl line up. Chain Saw Collectors Corner. You might have to do a search typing that in to get the web address.
Without going from 1 saw to the next it is hard for me to tell any difference using a 20" 3/8 pitch chain. I have put lots of hours on both. The super pulls a 24 " good in most hardwood. I never tried the standard 034 past 20". For its size at least the super is a workhorse. I've bucked 25"+ pin oak with a 25" hardnose bar with little lack of power. For a firewood cutter w/ 1 saw it will get it done. Just knock the excess sawdust out of the air filter more often then most saws and clean it at the end of the day . Its fast and easy and makes for a very reliable fast cutting saw for its size.
