I have 2, awesome saws.
Send to be a under rated saw given it's awesome power to weight ratio! Not too popular for some reason.

I had some 24” thick 42” diameter white oak rounds this year. When they were unloaded and ready to be noodled I grabbed the 7900 with full comp 28” b&c. A picture is worth 1000 words. View attachment 763404 View attachment 763405
Makita. Other than color it’s the same thing.Interesting color on that Dolmar.. I dig it!!!!

I know makitas are the same and thats what I thought it was originally, but it seems to be darker than makita blue. Sadly Dolmar is gone and only Makita remains, but in Dolmar colors.Makita. Other than color it’s the same thing.
It does look almost green, it may be the lighting.I know makitas are the same and thats what I thought it was originally, but it seems to be darker than makita blue. Sadly Dolmar is gone and only Makita remains, but in Dolmar colors.

I believe it was a coil replacement/upgrade, or an emissions passable one for import ie a cat in the muffler and or limited coil, I could be wrong. Making an educated guess off what they did with the 5100/5101/5105 series.What's the difference between the 7900 and 7901?

Now that... is a set of dawgs!!!!View attachment 763288 View attachment 763289 View attachment 763290 View attachment 763291 View attachment 763292 View attachment 763293 View attachment 763294 Hey guys, Just picked up a almost perfect condition Makita DCS 7901 with 24" bar for 325 bucks! I dont know much about these saws but she runs and starts like a dream. my questions are will this saw last a while if treated well and are parts easily found for this model? this looks,if not exactly like a Dolmar... Im guessing Makita owns them? seems like a very well built saw! hope the price was good!!![]()
Is the 7901 strato scavenging like the 7910?

Well, you know more than me. I thought the 7910 was strato. The only Dolmar I have any experience with is the 6100, it is strato.non of the series is a strato saw. The muffler on the 7910 has some funky snorkel thing in it. The 7910 has a slab sided piston and slightly different port timing. The decomp location moved as well. I’m not the most knowledgeable on the subject...
