Well, you still have plenty of time to start one...plenty of nice saws in Norway.....Partners, jonny's, huskies, jo-bu...

It should have the same weight as a 1100/2100/2101 I guess, not too bad actually. Too bad it has no decomp, which is tough on the operator and the starter mechanism. I put a 25"bar on it and it should be a great falling saw, whish I had some nice wood to test it

send it here, I will give it a test on some big oak!

What the heck sort of attachment is on that one? It looks like a robot arm from a Scifi movie...a winch?

Its a belt driven bowl carver. It has 4 circular cutting knifes and is really effective, its cutting very large chips.

This is a link to the manufactor (sorry its in German):

you better hide that sucker good!

Its a Swede-O-Matic.

Look at the blue circle - On the handle is a screw. When the saw moves enough in the vibration mounts the screw contacts the "trigger" and stops the chain. The metal handle is a hand-guard and a re-set for the brake. You cannot apply the brake using the handle like on a new saw. I posted a scan of the page from the instruction manual in another thread in the last week or so.

Here's the thread --

As far as model years go, I think they made different versions for different markets. I don't know that for sure, but I think its correct and explains the different equipment on these saws.

Here is as close as I can come...

EDER Troghöhler ETH1 is Ausfräsen wells in wood. It can be used for the manufacture of Trögen, of bildhauerische work for tree surgical measures and Ausfräsen trunks. Arrangement circular blade designed both longitudinal and lateral processing. The peak is in the wood and absorbs most of the cutting forces. Thus, a large removal volume per unit of time is possible. There are four round knife which create a smooth surface without vibrations on the head

What do you use it for?

Looks like NEK is a carver. Than such tool seems handy to remove a lot of wood.

 

[NEP]

Yes I'm a carver.
I use the attachment for deep hollow spots where a chainsaw would give me a lot of kickbacks. I also use it for carving seats.

That Eder company is pretty impressive. They have a lot of products that are brilliant, but what else would you expect from the Germans. I found an English translation manual for this unit, but their other stuff is equally impressive. I would think an American distributor would do well with their products.

I think you can get the EDER products from both Bob King WA and Jamie Doeren WI.

Gypo may have the fastest, I have the husky that vibrates the most....

this is a F70 Husky, 70cc, and a runner of course. No AV at all on this one...and it really shows...

I have the same in army green version, but it's unfortunately not complete.

 

[SawTroll]

No surprice, as it is a Cresent design - basically an outboard engine with a bar and handles on!
