No, not a song, but the 2008 edition magazine arrived. Them Solo's
look mighty close to another brand, and they are more expensive.Never
seen one, anywhere. And oh yea, whats the reason for a trimmer weighing
sixty pounds?LOL

What happened to the Husky's and Dolmars in the new catalog. Husky not allowing selling by mail anymore? I was kinda disappointed.

Yes, and I think the Dolmar deal went down the drains for some reason.....

But isn't the Solo there selling, the same as a Dolmar? or is that the reason?

The saws might be similar, or even nearly identical. But no one has told me yet what I get for the extra 100 dollars. Or where my local servicing dealer is. Hard enough to find a Dolmar dealer that actually stocks parts and works on the saws, my 2 closest Solo "dealers" have 1 or 2 saws on a shelf in a hardware store.

Although they look similar they are two different companies. Both German saws. They both have been around for a long time. I think Solo has been trying to break into the US market and copped the Dolmar restyle.:greenchainsaw:

No, not the same, but there sure has been some "reverse engeneering".......

 

[hoss]

+1 and you mean, there isn't a solo dealer/sevice shop next door to you guys?(huh, me neither)

Yeah they are a little different looking, I guess the chinese are invading Germany and their engineering dept.

I have a Solo dealer 5 miles from me. He has been in busy for many years and provides good service.

Somebody should have warned us about Husqvarna not sellin' saws through the internet...

Those weights on the trimmers are the shipping weights due to the dimensional size of the packaging. The specs. section has the actual weights.

Now do you honestly believe that?LOL My son first pointed it out to
me of course, seems he is always educating his ol' man. Just mailed out
order for a few roles of that 34LP chain for my little Stihls, man the dealers
around here charge $16.00 a roll, and it has to be safety chain, and that
is for 14inch stuff.Thanks.
