Help to identify saw age 395xp

[3GGG]

There is a guy selling this saw locally, can anyone help with the age of it, or if there is a way I can date it. Looks well used but could do me nicely for milling

says he bought it a few years ago on gumtree, whether he bought it new you'll have to ask. Will need a picture of the Id plate under the oil cap to determine year of manufacture.

Thanks, I asked him but he isn't sure of the date he bought new. I emailed asking for a pic to help.

First 2 numbers are 02 so looks like a few years old is 10.

If that's the first two digits of the serial number, it was made 2002. The next two digits is the week number that year.

Age means little if it's been taken care of or used very little.
