I like how the oil tank is isolated away from the heat of the crankcase.
Major problem with today's saws with the chain oil heated up and so thin to the point the chain is getting poorly lubricated when the tank gets below half full.
Also the 8800 and Deere went closed port as the older 540 was open.
Making a living with a saw since age 16.
