I have been looking to move from homeowner grade 40cc saw to a pro-grade 70cc. I like my smaller saw for removing the branches from a tree once it has been felled but am looking for a saw that is more robust for felling, bucking, and light milling (30” diameter) with an Alaska Mill. I recently talked to a dealer who unequivocally said a 70cc class saw was far to small to use for any milling and that I should be buying a 90cc class saw.
Where I am not looking to use the saw predominantly for milling do you have any experience using a 70cc successfully for occasional milling? If yes, are there any special considerations when using a saw of this size in this application to avoid overtaxing the machine?
I’m new to the forum and wanted to thank you all for feedback in advance.
