Lawrence this is my Canadien, its a model 175 and its a good working saw at 89 cc `s, a bit on the noisy side though.
Some of the PM saws were different and I have seen a few of the 270`s around this neck of the woods and they looked like the ones I described. The 175 pictured above is different from other 175`s I have seen so you never know what you will find with them. There should be a quite a number of old IEL saws out your way as they were made close by. If you ever come across a IEL model J let me know as it is one saw that I would really like to have for my collection. How are you doing with the picture posting thing? My daughter, the BSC. of Computer Science graduate took time to set me up to be able to post but it took me a long time to get it down pat. LOL. Once everything is set up and you learn to navigate from one setup to another without losing your way it gets quite easy.Jerry the PM Canadien 270 that is on the way here does not look anything like you have described it has a black top and yellow body.Your red PM looks real nice.Sorry I just can not get the picture thing on the go right now to much on the go.Had to get brake work on my daughter's car today,up the street from the brake place there is a saw shop that I have never been in before.Start asking about Pioneer saws and the guy say's, "like that one" pointing to the rafters.Real nice IEL sitting on top of a beam.Awesome shape it was

Jerry I just went to Mike Acres site and looked up the PM 270.The one pictured is cream and has a red top.Yet when you look at the saw stat sheet it say's, color scheme cream base with blue top-early models.So maybe the one I will be getting is a later version.I have purchase a nice parcel of smaller Pseries parts from a person you highly recommended when I first started with the chainsaw addiction,I think you know who I am talking about.It was a very good transaction and nice fellow to boot.Thanks for the connection to him! When I picked up the parcel it semed like I was back in time unwrapping a christmas gift,good memories
Hello Again Jerry
That's really good news about the manual helping you out,I came upon that stuff on a real fluke out of Ontario.He is going to send me some pic's of the rest of the stuff he has left to sell.He is not on this website,not really into saws, stuff was left behind by the previous owner of his house.I will keep a look out for that IEL saw you would like to get.As you know this province is a big timber producer,major downturn now though.We had some gigantic old growth here,and still some more also,so those Pioneers must be hiding somewhere.Like you mentioned,in shed's, garages,barn's,back of some shop's.If I could I would hit all those forestry towns possible.Who knows what you could gather up.As far as those Pseries saws that I have I would certainly welcome more contact's. Thank's Jerry

This is my other Titan chainsaw ,its the Sportsman model and its hard to get an idea of its size but it is about 5 ' long and weighs 41 lbs. Gear drive at around 3 to 1 ratio and 69 cc engine built around 1952. The chain is 9/16" pitch and the bar is 30".

Wow! When I first saw this Chain Saw, as it popped up on the screen, Almost Scared The Crap Out Of Me. I was not expecting to see a Picture.
I saw that you where the last to post here on this thread, from the list of options, so I thought I'd see what you had to saw. Different looking Saw as well. Does the Bar rotate on this saw? Bruce.
Not a saw but a nice item.
A friend is doing an estate and came across 5 of these, gave one to me.

Hi Pioneer Fans
Well today I went across the Fraser river to Surrey and picked up a new in the bag Pioneer flywheel puller.Got home and the first thing I did was try it out.Threaded the the screws in to the flywheel,tightened the screw that sits in the little hollow in the crankshaft end and it popped right off.Man that is quite the little tool.It cost me $20.00.I also picked up a NOS plastic air filter cover for a Pioneer 2071 $9.50.The two older fellas I was talking to were great guy's, really like the old Pioneers, they sold them new many years ago.Jerry I will be making a trip to see Mike Acres soon.I guess my next tool will be a, what do you think for taking apart old Pioneers? Do I need a bearing puller or seal puller?I am not even sure what they look like.Wait a minute didn't you post a pic of a puller with your impact wrench?Do I need one to pull apart machines.Anyway Thanks to you guy's I have pulled my first ever flywheel.The support you have given me so far has sent me going in the right direction.Thanks again esp.Jerry and Brendon.Hope your support will be there for me later.
