NeoTec NS8105 with 48" bar First Run

Got the saw for doing a friend a favor removing some trees, wanted it mostly to have a saw of this size (6.5 hp) to adequately run a 48" bar for removing really big trees and for the big stuff that others don't want for firewood but I can never refuse! It's basically a Chinese clone of the Stihl 070 made in the 60's and 70's. Quality is definitely NOT Stihl quality, but at less than 1/4 the price, it may be a viable option depending on your purpose.

I have 14 of them, make sure you get a good seal along the bottom edge where the air filter seats, you can use a heavy grease or a thin bead of silicone dust and de bris can get under neath
And into
Your carburetor, but they are great saws take the time to get good at adjusting the carb. Low high and idle lots of times it’s just a hair turn
One way or the other to get them running sweat as pie when broken in they will start be than a lawn mower . I know that’s hard to
Believe, but they will. !!!
