About Holzfforma G660 from FarmerTec – Honest Review

If you’re looking for an affordable saw that can handle a 36-inch bar and don’t want to pay a high price for the Stihl MS M661 or another pricier option, this saw might be the perfect option for you.

This saw starts easily in two pulls. To ensure an optimal user experience with your new tool, simply mix 25:1 fuel with SA10W-30 bar oil before getting started.

The recommended bar length is 36 inches, but it can handle up to 42 inches. This saw also has online reviews from industry experts and customers.

You may need to set up the carburetor needle valves, as Holzfforma is not set up properly from the factory.

Holzfforna Chainsaw Specifications

Engine Speed

It has a powerful 92-cc gas-powered engine and an interchangeable parts design, so you can easily use Stihl or other chainsaw parts.

It comes with a 92-cc, 5.2-KW engine that provides enough power to tackle any job and provides maximum power and torque, allowing you to get the job done quickly and efficiently. 

The engine of this saw isn’t as loud as the engines of other chainsaws. This makes your work environment less noisy.

Chainsaw Guide Bar and Chain

The Holzfforma chainsaw comes without a guide bar and chain.

I used this saw with a 36-inch bar and chain from Oregon, and it worked perfectly. Some users have used this saw 42-inch bar and cut oak with no problem. So, no matter how thick the log is, this chainsaw should be able to handle it.

It has a sharpened teeth chain that is excellent for cutting hardwood easily. You can easily cut around 18-inch diameter logs with this Holzfforma G660 chainsaw.

Fuel System

The Holzfforma G660 runs on unleaded 90+RON fuel, and Holzfforma recommends a 2-stroke 25:1 fuel mix. Holzfforma also recommends using SAE 10W-30 for bar oil.

I recommend Stihl 070 which is 25:1

Safety Features

For safety purposes, this saw comes with safety features such as a brake system to stop the chain immediately if anything goes wrong, such as kickback or chain slip. Also

The chain brake system is a great safety feature. It will stop the chain immediately if anything goes wrong, such as a kickback or a jam.

In addition, the chainsaw is designed with a low kickback bar and chain to reduce the risk of injury.

Weight

Without the chain and bar, it weighs 8 kg. Compared to other chainsaws, Holzfforma G660 is overweight.

You may feel a bit of extra weight when using Holzfforma G660 for extended periods.

Automatic Oiler

It comes with an automatic oiler that lubricates the bar when in use.

It helps to keep the performance high and also increases the life of the saw.

Pricing

Holzforma has priced the saw at an affordable point, taking into consideration its features, engine size, and durability.

Considering you get all the features of a top-quality chainsaw without paying a hefty price tag as compared to Stihl or Husqvarna having 3 times the price of this saw.

Holzforma’s chainsaw is certainly worth considering for those on a budget.
