Real nice new to me 044

[joe25DA]

Found this beauty today. Guy and his dad bought it to cut a few trees in the mid 90s. Wasn't used much after that. It is in super shape. Sold my 440 to my cousin to pay for this one.

10mm?

 

[joe25DA]

10mm?

No idea. I know there are 10 and 12s. How do you find out? By ser no?

 

[kr5258]

According to the Tech Info Bulletin, the 12mm started at S/N: X 29 382 283

By looking at the crankcase, it looks like a 10mm to me. Pull the top cover and show us the cylinder.

 

[joe25DA]

Nice. Freakin. Saw.

You. Suck.

 

[LowVolt]

Oh. Yeah. I. Forgot.

They. Ran. It. With. Safety. Chain. Ha.ha.ha.

 

[cgraham1]

Yep. You got the KS jug. That should be a runner.

 

[kr5258]

If you ever want to send it down the road, keep me in mind.

Nice saw. Ron

 

[cgraham1]

So you're not going to tell us what you paid for it?

 

[joe25DA]

Yeah, 20" with safety chain. I'm gonna swap the 25" with rsc onto this one and my cousin can put this bar on the 440.
I'm not gonna lie and say I paid $50 for it. I paid $400, high for me but the saw is hardly broken in. Also I sold the 440 to my cousin for $400 so it's a wash. The case, manual, and tool kit are cool to have. Appears this saw is a '95

 

[cgraham1]

I think that is a great deal for that saw, especially in that condition.

 

[svk]

Nice saw, those 10mm saws are strong.

Is that the one that was on Craigslist in Chelmsford?
