My Wife is 5'8" 135ish, and she has no interest in running my saws. ;D But seriously, do you define bogging as stalling the saw? Or when it goes blah blah blah, untill you lift it out of the cut and get the chain going again? David, did you run that thing yet?

Yeah, I've run it a few cuts in some wood a little under 30". I'ts difficult to slow the chain down just by pushing down, esp in anything less that 30" or so. I can stop (bog) it if I dig the spikes in and lever it tho.

I've got quite a bit of wood to cut when I get time after the holidays but I need t put the new clutch in the Mac130 and make sure the jonsered and 395XP are tuned properly first. Which reminds me, I need to order a tach. Recommendations?

David,
Ain't heard from you on your 395XP. Are you dissapointed with it?

He's probably not stopped cutting except to fuel it every 20 minutes, ............probably no trees left standing on his property. Things can get you addicted.
