    572xp or MS500i

    Just to add some back story to this. I mainly cut hardwoods for myself for my outdoor boiler. I'm looking to up my production to see if I can sell some of the excess wood for a side business. Looking just for a good saw for felling and bucking up the wood. I do love my 660 but find that I just...

    572xp or MS500i

    Looking to pick up a new saw, want to have an in-between saw. Currently have a 272xp and a MS660. Been looking at the 500i but am nervous to drop 1300 dollars on a brand new technology saw. I've read some reviews on both the 572 and the 500i. I know there is more power in the 500i and it is...

    Serial number check on MS201T

    I believe the 192t has the bar oil reservoir above the gas tank. The 201tcm or at least mine has bar oil towards the bar and gas at the rear of the saw. Also I believe could be totally wrong though that the 192 has adjustable carbs where the newer 201 are mtronic. That might be a good starting...

    Bought a 201 TC-M

    Thanks. I try my best to take care of my equipment then it’ll hopefully last me my lifetime. I understand what you mean about kids. I have one now and another on the way. The rest of the shop isn’t nearly as organized as the saw shelf is. Just the frame of the photo. Hopefully going out today...

    Bought a 201 TC-M

    Well today I decided to feed my saw addiction. Had the opportunity to pick up a brand new 201-tcm. Couldn’t pass it up. I’m a little nervous about it because it’s my first saw with the new m-tronic technology. I’ve been watching some reviews and I was between the husky T540 and the 201. Well...

I don't want to skimp on the safety equipment not when my life counts on it I just know that Ill be using a handsaw for a...

    Ah I believe that it will still cut through. So basically it just makes it a little easier to move while going up the tree?

    Why the steel core if I may ask what is the benefit to it?
