Chinese Chainsaws

[Bernhard]

Hi

for the guys which are intrested in. I have  chinese Chainsaws in use


I would like to post some pics of them, but no results by posting ...if anyone can help, how to do it: Thanks in advance!

Experience
Ok.
At the pics You see clones of a Komatsu Zenoah 5200 GVS, A Stihl MS 210/230 and a Poulan.

The Komatsu came for free and worked in polish forest for 2 days in an 8hr shift, after that driving wheel of the oilpump and the clutch had been detroyed. Parts came for free from China.

I have bought 2 oft the MS 210/230, one I have in my Van, if I need a saw at work for Jobs, when at giving the contract, no trimming or felling was needed (Landscaping biz) The other one I have given to a friend in Poland, who is a forestal contractor (Stihl, Husky, Dolmar) the saw was totally destroyed within 14 days.

At the Poulan clone the fronthandle broke after around 15 hrs work.

In Germany this Komatsu-Zenoah clones have been sold like crazy in 2006, but now there is no chance to get´em sold, that´s the reason, I have got it for free and only have to pay the tax for it.

BTW:For earning Money I own Stihl saws and BC´s
018, 024, 028, 044, 046, FS 200, FS 400, HS 45, HS 80, HL 75, BG 55.

at a 25 to 1 mix ratio the fumes will get you first

Thanks for the warning.  The big question now is how many parts of the saw we love and trust are made with parts coming from China?

We are seeing name brand parts stamped Made in China. Even Honda is doing it. As long as the OEM maintains quality control there should be no problem.

Ah So-o.  Chinee chainsaw. You likee.  Me no likee.  Have chinee knife. No work.  thankyou.  have day of good.

You are a bad man. 

[Bernhard]

Who is a bad man, me? Come on...don´t judge about mei!!!

Germany has been a good market for he chinese zenoah clones. Has been!

They had been sold on ebay...only there for 170 € each...nowadays for 90€

Dealers profit is 12 €. Price fob chinese port is around 30 €...so You got what You pay.

But look at the japper cars, when they appeared at the US market. hanne´t they been cheap, too?

Here in Germany they have been awfully cheap in early 70`and have been fully equipped,with goodies, german buyers have to pay a lot of money for, if they buy a german car.

But take a look at the drop of the price for a chicom saw...think it says a lot.

I never would change all my Stihl Equipment for chinese stuff...butit was worth a try, really. On that way, I had the possibilty to figure out, if they are as bad as I have been told.

I have a chinese BC in use, too. Beside the FS 400 and 220, it is much better then the saws.


Hey, Tom

me never has saying that me likes them, but as longa there is a fool in Germanland, which would buy it....why not?

Infact, Tom...there have been a lot of fools here, cause of the raising costs of heatingoil and gas, which have started to make firewood. And China sucks o a lot of wood from our local forest..

But be honest...how much of them stay with firewood? I do so more then 20 years.

German ebay is as dead as a dead dog...so no possibilty to sell the chicom saws for a good price.

BTW: The pics are too big, so how can I make them show up here?

[dancan]

Follow the "behind the Forum" guidlines, or the help tab above. Easy to get the pics to fit.

Don't worry Bernhard, I was definitely not referring to you.

[rebocardo]

See where they are recalling kids' beads, it seems when the kids put them in their mouths and swallow them, it chemically changes into the date rape drug.

Pics have to be comprimated...how can I do that.?..the Files are too big

[beenthere]

Reduce the size which is usually given in pixels. Less than 450 on the longest side works. Then save to the smallest compression to get under the 42 KB file size. That should work for you. Do the pixel thing first, for sure.

I don't love my chainsaw that much.  And the Mrs would prolly get jealous if I did!

[TexasTimbers]

They can't even make a safe toy or a non-poisonous toothpaste. I'll be horse-whipped before I'd buy a chainsaw from them.

Berhard I am a Husky guy mostly but own Stihl also and like them. You have one of the two finest engineered saw companies in the world headquarterd right there in germany. You buy a Stihl one time for life. Support your fellow countryman.
