The owners manual and the saw don't match.
That saw is one of the mini mac's.Not in the same league as a PM6.

Was wondering why the manual says power mac while the ad says mini mac. Anyone tell me if the saw is a mini or not by the pic?

That is not the correct manual for that saw, but they are very similar. I bet it is a Mini MAC 6 or 6A. That looks like a very clean saw. $75 is alot for a mini, as they were only about $100 new. If you want it, and it runs well, I say go for it. A former member here once said "mini's either run very well, or not at all." Unfortunately, if they do not run, it is usually the points. You have to disassemble the ENTIRE powerhead to adjust the points.
