Wanted to test out my ms650 on this white oak. Testing my new 32" bar as well. Several saws made the trip, my husky 372&445 the MS650 and my earthquake 4518.

Here is a video of me bucking everything but the top. It got hung so I cut about 5 rounds off bottom to make it fall free.

If you get a longer bar it would be even easier to stick it in the dirt!
 
I used the earthquake on the too 7"a and down and to cut some pieces that were to long as well as finishing some cuts.

 
No dirt was hit in the making of this video. Got close where u see it pinch, after the undercut, but just leaves. :)

Just like I don't normally use a Chinese saw to top I don't normally use an 84cc saw with a 32" bar on a 14" tree. You test run with what ya got!
 
Sounds better in person. Has a dual port cover. Factory side port hogged out to about a dime and the end of the baffle tunnel cut out so that its a straight shot out the cylinder to the muffler.
