Trying to decide on my next saw I’m not a professional logger I’m just feeding my outside furnace but I’ve run into a supply of standing dead ash trees most very large. I have a STIHL MS 390 and an old 045 AVE.
The 045 runs great but I also realize that it’s old and the electronic ignition may go at anytime the 390 is okay for the smaller stuff but I believe that the constant bucking of large trees will be too much for it.
So I decided to get a newer pro saw. Now for the question do I get a brand new 461 or look for an 460?
I want the 75 cc saw because of how the 045 performs the weight is not problem.
