Customer service X 1000. Doesn’t matter what you sell. Video’s and no instruction manual on assembly? Yeah, that’s part of customer service. Hopefully Rugged sees this video and comments.

I've got the same splitter but, with the trojan engine. I really like mine but, it came with the rpm set at 3500(I turned it up to 3650) the hyd. pressure was way to low (I maxed it out) now its stronger and faster. another appalachian here. Thanks for sharing. Brent

I have 2 dozen saws and love the 170, it absolutely rips especially with a few mods. I’ll grab the little 170 for most jobs because it’s such a light fun saw to run.

You’re totally right. The 170 has been around quite awhile and there’s a reason. As far as ability goes it is ASTONISHING what this saw can accomplish. It would be REALLY hard to get a better buy, it is a delight to use! If you’re cutting 5” and less stuff…and the chain is on the right way….😂😂😂😂….it’s as good as it gets IMO. Do I have a bigger saw like you? Yes. For limbing and trimming…this is where it’s at. Nice sounding little guy there!

Good video. I tried a brand like the Granberg, think it was Oregon, and had the same results. Now I alternate between the Stihl 2in1 and a plain file. Maybe sharpen once with the Stihl and 2 or 3 with the plain file. I do this because the chain seems to get grabby if I use just the 2in1 so I think it may be filing down the rakers/depth gauges a bit more than it should. I looking at Stihl grinders now but boy they are pricey!

Ha! You have a good point. Hardwoods are all I am working with. The Peavey does pretty well on straight-grained wood like oak, but when the grain starts getting twisty, it's like shooting a BB gun at a battleship.

The old 390 do you have problems finding aftermarket parts I’m trying to get a bark box or a straight shot for it. I believe I seen one for it 391 I’m not sure if that’s the same saw or not.

One thing I managed to overlook was this business about the 500i being a fuel hog; two things. A) Okay, whatever... But whining about fuel use here is like buying a Ferrari and then complaining about the gas mileage. This is a performance machine. If you want power, you have to burn fuel. B) I haven't noticed that the fuel consumption is really that bad. I wonder if it doesn't get a little better as the computer figures things out. This saw really does seem to run better the more it is run over time.

Love mine. Box stock with 25 light bar. I compare it to my older 461 and you are right, the 500i is a Ferrari and the 461 is more of an american muscle car.

Yep those old 390s are rugged saws… yours sounds like it’s running real rich on the top end. I’ve got one , piped exhaust, tuned just right and she goes through anything like butter

So, I was out finally finishing up this year's wood pile today and trying to buck up the last of some wood that had dirt and rocks embedded in the bark from where they had been skidded out of the woods. After wrecking the 500i chain on all that multiple times, I decided to break out the 390 with its 20" bar because it was less to sharpen. Was cutting on a gnarly oak piece and had the bar buried. The powerhead was barely pulling the chain. I remembered your comment and stopped and went and got a screwdriver. About 3/4 of a turn later, the powerhead was running much stronger and pulled the chain with no problem. You've got a good ear! Thanks!

It did, several days back. It does not get a lot of sun. It will start to freeze over after a couple consecutive days with highs in the mid-30's.
