? Power chain saw users in this area will be interested •in an ALL-NEW, cutting chain now being introduced by RUCH LAWN MOWER SERVICE, Local Dealer for I McCulloch chain sawsand power tools. According to Clarence E. Ruch, owner of the local dealership. this new chain .is the McCulloch “Super-Mac” and is precision designed for today’s high speed, riiore powerful chain saws. “Today’s power chain saws really put <Abeir chains to the test,” Ruch said. “In cutting logs, firewood, and even lumber more than 70,000 shock impacts hit the chain every minute — over 4 million an hour!” These tremendous forces can result iri excessive chain wear and. inefficient cutting, costing the user time and money, Ruch pointed out. He says that the new McCulloch chain has been designed and manufactured to resist this high-speed, highpowered shock and to perform at peak cutting efficiency over its .entire life. It is reported that “SuperMac” chain components are made from costly hig-h-carbon steel and are -specially heattreated for maximum abrasion

Another, new feature is factory pre-lubing of rivets, to assure each chain buyer of a chain in top condition, ready-to-go. “McCulloch put this new ■ chain through some rugged tests before they ever released it” 1 Ruch said. “They gave samples Ito loggers, pulpwood cutters and farmers all over the country jto use in all kinds of weather land on all kinds of wood, even i frozen logs. These users were i enthusiastic about both endurI ance and cutting ability.” Addition'll benefits claimed I for McCulloch “Super-Mac” j chain, are less stretch, smootliler travel with less saw power ■ required. ,and less .sprocket and cutter bar wear. New “Super-Mac” is available in 7 distinct types for all sizes and'makes of power chain saws; both direct-drive and geardrive. The. new chain is now in stock at the local dealership. AU chain saw users are invited to stop by for a personal demonstration.
