    Echo CS-590 Timber Wolf vs Husqvarna 460 Rancher

    I have been promised good support by my distributor for the Efco line. I also have no complaints with Makita's support for my products except that they stopped making gas products. My company did not have enough gross sales for either Husqvarna or Stihl. But there seems to that there are too...

    California bans small gas-powered engines ... including chainsaws wtf

    Musk and Besos get their money off the backs of ten year old African boys that dropped out of school to work in unregulated mines. They work all day and turn in their rare earth minerals for five to ten cents on the dollar. All the money for these rare earth elements goes to the billionaires...

    ? On a Makita 7900

    Happy customers mean repeat business. I am a new Makita dealer but have had an stereo and tube radio repair shop since 2015. The only way to stay in business is to have fair prices, good work and be straight with customers on whether I can fix something. Sometimes I have sent Stihl and...

    ? On a Makita 7900

    I think that you are correct. I sent it to Portland because I did not want to remove the adjustment limiters.

    ? On a Makita 7900

    I converted a HD filter model to an EA7900 and sent it to Portland for carburetor calibration. That way the warranty was not effected. As for the sock. If it is one that I stock I will pull the sock off and leave it in the box. If it is one that I am direct shipping I recommend taking the sock...

    The New Blue (soon in orange) G395

    I have to agree but the NewTop and Holzforma brands only carry up to the 066 Stihl equivalent and a clone of the old Stihl 070. They are good machines but I wanted to try out the G888. I have yet to turn it on. I look for quality ratings, patents, use of the products and so on. I have a...

    The New Blue (soon in orange) G395

    That could be true of any company. My point here is that some Chinese companies have learned that to survive one must have quality products. The Japanese learned this after fielding their soldiers with shoddy equipment during WWII. They vowed never to do that again. Other Chinese companies...

    The New Blue (soon in orange) G395

    I sell the Holzfforma G888. However, I had to install the dogs and a spacer. One of the lock bolts was the wrong type, which I was shocked by this, I will have to go to a screw store to get the correct one. They also have a three month warranty. The Chinese brands that I import have a one...

    Echo CS-590 Timber Wolf vs Husqvarna 460 Rancher

    I agree with you but I need to let Mr. Verzanni investigate the problem. He is someone who my importer network would contact so for now I must wait. Thanks, Steven

    Looking for input about milling

    My Chinese 070 saws at 105cc are in the class of what you are talking about. I screen all Chinese companies for quality and parts. I also have started selling the Holzfforma 880 which has a 122cc motor and will sell for $798.75 and the 42" bar and chain sells for $221.81. I would support this...

    We need to let the Efco manager have time to get things going. I was quite surprised when I saw his email. But that is a good thing. Thanks, Steven

    Echo CS-590 Timber Wolf vs Husqvarna 460 Rancher

    I would not be so sure. A bad dealer is bad for the brand as a whole. I try to be up front and straight with my customers. Maybe that is why they keep coming back. Steve

    It means to us that Andrea Vezzani has the power to get things done at the corporate level.

    Looking for input about milling

    Hello, I am a chainsaw dealer in Washington State https://schneiderschainsaw.com/. I will give you my educated opinion and hopefully this will help. The 661 that you want to use is basically a high speed high power cross cut saw. It is very powerful for what it does but there is another class...

    I would like to forward your problem to the importer that I am beginning to work with. I promise that nothing will happen from me that happened to you from the other dealer. Please give my an email that they can contact you and I will copy it with your problem. Thanks, Steven
