Default Villiers powered..."Killer"... chainsaw....

Hi...does anybody out there in engine land...possibly have any sort of manual or data like year manufactured..etc....for the two-man chainsaw in the picture?? It is powered by a Villiers 2 1/2 h.p. two stroke engine....it is a "Canadian Danarm Power Saw" made by the Hi-Baller Company Ltd. Vancouver Canada sold by a Dietrich-Collins Equipment Ltd. also of Vancouver Canada... Any info or tips that might be helpful would be appreciated...I am planning on starting and running it....and would very much like to survive the experience...Thanks in advance.

G'day,I remember seeing one of these machines at a rally last year (I think), does the bar swivell while the engine stays upright?.It was quite a good exhibit,when the owner and his son "demoed" it the crowd soon followed
