That there is a beauty! Was it ever used? Love that gas can too, with a Homelite label. Thanks, The story I was told when I bought it was it was used once to test it. Then the rental store closed and it was in storage at the owners garage. I got it from the owners son. It came with the storage case. Here is a picture of it.

I see this does not have high adjust on carburetor, grommet. Is that needed? Can this cut concrete okay? Very nice unit. I was looking at buying the one on ebay.

XL98A storage box by CLASEC, on Flickr Image isn't showing up for me. When I click on the link under it, it goes to Flickr but says it's private. So is that a Just-Rite gas can with a Homelite label? |

Still not showing up on the forum, for me, but I see it on Flickr when I use the link. Could just be my cache won't let go of the problem. Pristine box for a pristine saw! I don't know if I could bear using it and risk putting a scratch in it.
EAGLE MFG.CO was good stuff back then, not so much these days, JustRite or nothing for metal cans now.

I'm with you as far as using it. Probably never will. I have a used DM50 if I need to cut something. I've heard good things about JustRite cans. I have a few Delphos 5 gallon cans and they seem pretty good. |

Now i wonder, can one still get the blades for this? Are they all standard and used on new saws today? Especially the concrete blade.
