Dolmar

any quick and easy moods that can be done to either 5100 or 7900?

I ran them both ill take the 7900 over the 681 ANY DAY. the 681 vibrates more, has LESS POWER in the wood, and is louder.

Hi,

"louder" - OK, you`re right - but I think, solousa sells other saws there than SOLO Germany here.

I've found Dolmar's to be easier on the hands than Stihls: smoother running, faster rev, less vibration. Dolmars seem to have a better torque to power balance and are less prone to getting jumpy in bore cuts than Stihl at least for me. Stihl's new mtronics seem to closing the gap in that area though. However in terms of raw power I've always felt Stihl edged out Dolmar for the same cc's. Control, comfort, manageability goes to Dolmar, pure power goes to Stihl imo.

You must not of run a 7900 yet.

That is true I have yet to run a 7900. I should have qualified my statements as pertaining to ~50 cc saws like the 5100. Again this is simply based on my experience.

Wow this one was dug up from 2007 huh?
And yea, the 7900 is still am awesome saw.
