[SEL] Titan chainsaw

[John Hall]

I've got a small Titan like yours but haven't got it running yet. Our big 
one uses a mix of 1pt of 50wt oil to the gallon, smokes heavy until it gets 
warmed up. I personallly don't use oil mix diffrent from what the 
manufacturer says in any of our old saws. Most of the old saws ran a 1/2 pt 
of 30wt to the gallon. Mall's used 3//4 a pt I believe. Most of the time 
there is a tag somewhere on the saw that gives the oil/gas mix.

Titans were made in Washington state. The story related to me by someone 
from the west coast was that the factory went out of business many years ago 
and saw production/support was not sold off. Don't know how accurate the 
account is but the fellow knew more about the saws than anyone in my neck of 
the woods.
