Anyone ran one yet? I looked at one at Lowe's 50cc and I think |
|
it had full 3/8 chain with 20" for $199. Clamshell design. |

I've not had the chance to try one out yet but am sure looking |
|
forward to it. |
|
It's been a long time since a saw with the Poulan name on it has |
|
garnered as many positive reviews as what I've seen on this one. |
|
Maybe this could be the start of something good for Poulan |
|
again. |

My boss bought one after I told him about them. He ask me if he |
|
was going to buy a new saw that had a 20" bar on it for $200 |
|
what would I get. He bought the black and grey craftsman |
|
version. He has used it twice and loves it for around his place. |
|
Came with 3/8 oregon vanguard chain. |
|
I checked the IPL on 5020 and it is a clamshell design like the |
|
husky 450 455 and stihl 250 290 and poulan site dont have it for |
|
some reason listed, but I found some specs that showed close to |
|
what it felt like in my hands with bar and 20" chain on it. |
|
15.15lbs as used it says. |
|
Shame part was I had a 330 or 3450 for him (boss) but he couldnt |
|
get it from me because some state BS between management and |
|
union employees. He is just that straight of a shooter and is |
|
close to retirement like me. So I dont blame him. |

Not bad for stock 50cc homeowners saw. |
|
Fairly sturdy as well, and I will try to get some more time on |
|
it in real firewood cutting soon. |

Looks like the guy at work is wanting it, so off it will go. |
|
Might pickup another sometime. I found that Menards has them at |
|
$199 for there regular price. You cant go wrong with this saw |
|
for that kind of money.. |

My boss at work bought the black and grey version and loves it. |
|
He is just a occasional I need to cut a tree up that fell on my |
|
property type. |
|
I had talked with him about saws and even had one for him but he |
|
wasnt allowed to get anything from me do to state rules ??? (it |
|
is true I checked into it). |
|
Now get this this guy makes just shy of 6 figures on straight |
|
pay and he about chit when I told him the cost of husqvarna, |
|
stihl, dolmars in the pro grade and cc size. So then I mentioned |
|
the 5020 and that is what he bought new. |
|
I just wonder why they didnt go with .325 chain though. I love |
|
3/8 but ::). |

I really have no idea why the 3/8's either. Its not a bad thing |
|
though as even though its a saftey chain the 72V chain isnt that |
|
bad. Much better IMHO then the 33 series that would have |
|
probably come with it if it was .325. |
|
Enlarging the hole under the deflector and running it with a 16" |
|
bar with 72LPX made a pretty decent runner out of it but stock |
|
with the 20" will get the job done without any trouble. |
|
The thing that amazed me was the carb was set pretty much spot |
|
on, right out of the box. |
