Title: Stihl 026 Super Magnum

Stihl 026 Super Magnum  saving info.

Have seen these posted before on other sites but never any real info.  Well a guy on my other CR group has one his dad bought new.

We all just figured it was a dealer sticker over the metal tag or embossed on metal tag like this. http://chainsawrepair.createaforum.com/stihl/metal-tag-reconditioning/

Well it sort of is just that.

Owner My father bought it new in the mid to late 80's from a shop in Spokane WA.
So I just spoke with a fellow at country homes equip. He said it was a package they used to sell. amounts to a teflon coating of some of the internals.

 Several threads on a couple different forums from 2010 and 2014. Nobody ever came up with any info on the model. One person said it his Grandfather got it in the late 1980's.

Found one that had been for sale by owner 7 years ago in Wash near Spokane. = Stihl 026 super magnum chainsaw
This is a pro saw and Extremely rare!!! This saw was made in the 1980s and is out of production
Very low miles, ran very little doing light yard work just to keep it from sitting and in perfect working condition... Very well maintained! 1 owner, close as you can get to mint condition! Original stickers and markings in tact.
There is a 20" bar on it
Comes with 2 new extra chains, case, and a couple files and bar tools thrown in! This is a killer find! Will not find another one out there in this condition.
Straight cash or will consider trade on a vehicle. This is a serious saw, serious offers only.

Nice looking one too with case.

What was told beside telfon coating.  The “super magnum” emblem was used by country homes and garden in Spokane to designate they ported it.
