new (to me) 066

[dimanager]

CAD has reared it head again in the form of a Stihl 066, 25 and 36 in. bars, 3 chains for the 25 (one brand new) and 1 for the 36. All are in real good shape. Came with an 8 pin sprocket and pulls the 36 with RS REALLY well in a solid piece of big oak.

Good looking saw!

Hmmm... I think I'll go check if mine's in the truck...

 

[oldsaw]

You are going to like it, guaranteed. I've got the same bar arsenal for mine, and it just screams with the 25". Your wife will think you are up to something, your smile will be that big.

You're right Mark. I could not believe how well it pulled. I didn't notice the sprocket on it when I first put the bar on it, and was amazed at how well it pulled the 36. I thought it just came with a 7, and you can imagine my surprise when I saw it allready had an 8 pin on it. What a beast.

Oh, by the way, can anybody send an IPL and/or a service manual.

Nice saw! I have have the same bars too... except i only run a 7 pin. It's probably one saw I'd never part with. Cuts like hell with the 25" on it!!

066

Nice 066! My modded 066 is a very impressive saw. I run mine with a 7 pin only. My 066 pulls a 24" with authority through anything, it is my strongest running saw as of right now.:greenchainsaw:

Had to get surgery tonight...

Told doc I needed to get this s**t-eating grin off of my face after felling & cutting with my recently-aquired 066 all day!

He told me the swelling would go down..... eventually.

I can see the Stihl paint flaking off - why don't they use paint that sticks, like Husky...........:greenchainsaw:

I bought this saw used in December. I talked to the guy that owned it. He had it for five years and used it everyday logging. It prolly has a thousand hours or more on it and still has over 150psi of compression.lol:greenchainsaw:

So, the paint should last , if you don't run a Jred the paint lasts even longer.

It is the wear that everyday logging puts on them if you don't clean them regularly.:greenchainsaw:
