ye we started them both up together and the 400 rotated round in circles and wandered off :p

and i bet the 410 hardly moved 2 millimeters and the 400 had done 2 full circles
£450 is not bad, I paid £425+vat

the ts 410 was only introduced to address h&s vibration issues,but is in fact an inferior machine to the model it replaces. just ask the guys who service/repair stihl saws for their view on which model is best.

we're running both the 400 and the 410 and our 410 has been back to the shop that many times for bits and pieces, still prefer it to the 400 though

I had an issue with the 410 not being able to remove the screws what hold the air filter cover, the nut that the screw goes into is part of the fuel tank and I had one saw have a new tank fitted due to this problem, it was fitted free as its a manufacture problem what Stihl are aware of
I cant see how you can say its an inferior machine bobbi when its got a lot of additional features compared to the TS400, the guys who service my saws call them too but you try using a TS400 saw all day or a TS410 and tell me what gives less fatigue, the TS410 wins easily...in my opinion of course
