Here's a hint

It's made in Japan but not by a manufacturer that has been mentioned.

Shindaiwa?

It sort of has been mentioned, as it is part of Yamabiko - but that mention was about a different saw.

I was thinking of rubin or something similar.

Are you saying the 231t was made by Echo?

To me it looks like a variant of the PS-222?

Yes, well kinda I have both echo and shindaiwa products with Yamabiko Japan on their plates but it looks particulary close to the echo 260tes....it IS diifferent in displacement but many parts look near exact so my gues is they have had their hand in it somehow.

Maruyama

Maruyama

That was also my thought, but I always thought maruyama was a much younger brand.

I believe it is clear by now that it is a Dolmar.

There is/was a PS-220, PS-221, & PS-222. Looks like there were different carburetors on each. Also had different RPM ranges.

Ended up ordering a Makita ea4300f45c. Took abit too find one in Canada for a good price. Has great things said about them for the price as well.

Pumped for the smurf saw

Congratulation! Great saw. Although I will add that I find the bar length a little over ambitious. For me 40cm would have been more than enough. Waiting for some pics in the future!

I was thinking the same thing. I will probably put a 16" bar on. I have all kinds of chain for that length as well.

Having the 18 inch as back up is always a good idea.

Ya nothing wrong with having an extra bar. My 034 super is wearing a 20". Got a spare saw one way or another

Does the ea 4300 or ps421 use a k095 (small mount husqy) bar fitment???
