Where's the 153 fit in?
In what years was the 153 made or imported to the US market?
Had to go dig out the manuals & brochure.
This brochure only shows models- 105, 108, 112, 114, 117, 119, 123, 133, 153.
What's impressive is the 'Spare Parts List' eight pages of exploded views & eight pages of part numbers. Right at the same size as the 'Instruction Manual'
This saw on 11/9/82 was $607.00 [ I usually write this in the manual] W/full wrap handle bar, chain protection cover, special spike bars? and a 29" roller tip bar. $42.00 of this was for the manual override oiler. In today's money/prices this make the current Pro saws seem like a darn good value. Even though one still has to take it out and count it.
