That's a beautiful saw. I've never seen a "Treemaster" branded Poulan before, and it has a chain brake as well. What's the backstory of how you acquired it? It should travel to Virginia, just saying! Enjoy, Max!

I'm pretty sure they were carried by The Arborist Store which is a Canadian company established in 1966. The Poulan saws they sold were the 3400, 2700 / 2800 and the Micro line. The Micro saws are fairly common. The 3400 is likely the least common saw. Today they carry Husky saws.

Benchmark products are sold by Home Hardware which is a large chain in Canada.
It looks in fabulous shape. It just popped up for sale and working on buying it. So we’ll see what happens. Let you gents know what comes of it. Thanks for a little history.
Started to put the 4900 back together and when I put the cylinder on it started to bind up. Pulled it back apart and did some checking found it has a bent connecting rod. Had to dig into the parts box and get a new crankshaft. All back together and it spins around like it should. Didn't want to use the new stuff but glad i had it. Might get to run it tomorrow if all goes well.
Found some spark plugs for 11.95 for 25 ,bought 2 boxes of them

I'm updating a thread to save Tim's info too on 3 of their relabeled brands.
The old thread with a benchmark 46 BM46 pics is hostage by tinypics like pb did lot of us too. The guy that had done the original thread was from Canada.
So probably someone in in Canada has pics of one to share?

I ended up grabbing that treemaster/poulan. I’m told it’s in the mail. You guys will get some detailed shots next week
Yes you could do that. JB has a clear ep[oxy I like as well.
Hey Mark, would this be useful? I saw it in a local's shed today and figured you might have a need for it. Just by pulling it feels pretty stout and I'd bet it'd run with gas down the carb.
I like that Oregon Homelite Bar.
Yes indeed. If you can acquire it for a reasonable price I could make the Target 14/66 fully functional.
I'd recommend that you do not attempt to get that saw running...if you do you will not let it get away. The 5200/5400/8500 models are really something special.

Beautiful.
It's on the lawn now, hopefully it'll be on it's way to you next week.
I have one of these this one is in far better condition. Mine is 49cc chrome cylinder and is a good runner but cosmetically lacking. Good find
Not mine. Just pics of one I have saved for thread.I have one of these this one is in far better condition. Mine is 49cc chrome cylinder and is a good runner but cosmetically lacking. Good find
Sorry Mark, but I had to drip some gas down it's throat. She took off and ran beautifully for 10-15 seconds, so I think your chopsaw will be in good shape with those parts.
Got both of these running today, my 6900 and the 4900, both are doing good.
I found out an old friend of mine right up the road had a old Poulan. Today I stopped by to see what he had and he had just got it home from his mechanic. He has the bow that came on it originally also . He said he would call me when it gets too heavy for him to use. He’s 70 and in good shape so I’m worried it might be too heavy for me when he decides to let it go.

It was all craftoulan today. 
Look what showed up in the mail today. Wow is it ever clean. Signs of a little use. But can’t be more than a cut or two. What you guys think.
I think it was my birthday a couple days ago and it's not too late for a belated gift!!!
lol I have a skil , a poulan and a gray craftsman but not a tree master.Similar threads
