after watching that video... wonder how many kick-backs they experience in a day?

If he's keeping pressure down with his left hand, and the chain's not too aggressive, it probably wouldn't be too bad.
I'd like to know as well

How much do they run?

My dealer sells at MYR 3,500 w/36" (USD 1,100~1,200 i guess). I find that Stihl MS660 and most models are cheaper over here after conversion(USD).

Folks over here dont know what is a kick-back, they just don't use the upper tip of the bar.
BTW Stihl 070 NEVER kicks back

Finally got through the thread after 2 days of putzing. Interesting to see some big ole beat ta hell saws getting put to use for a living. Goes ta show you don't need big shiny new saws to cut stuff. Good to know for the poor bastards like me

The worst-looking Contra I've seen so far, but it runs... came like this 3 or 4 years ago.

Forget the gym when you have an 090, just slinging that stihlbis enough. They also aren't eating our diet.

Comparing those saw operators to pics of guys at US GTGs, we are some fat SOBs, aren't we?

Now that is hard work dragging those saws around up and over the logs on that terrain.
