While cutting on a red oak tree, the chain came off the blade. The chainsaw in the video is about 15 years old and still running strong.

yyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeehhhhaaaaaaaa
stop chopping down trees
Firstly, Echo and Stihl are not the same companies. Secondly, there are only two brands of chainsaws I would consider buying: Husqevarna and Stihl. Both are good saws, you’ll pay more for a Husky but the things just don’t break.
stihls are the best, eager beavers and pretty decent too
some times the ratio is printed on the gas cap. just dont use a universal oil mix.
echo and stihl are the same company and same equipment. echo just costs less
did hi say chainsaw oli and regular gas? WTF???
nice job man i didnt catch if you were a logger or what but i own a tree service in IL and all i use is stihl i have all the sizes and they work great
are you crazy? echo is shit
You can get a new scrench (the tool that’s the 3/4 socket + flathead screwdriver) from Bailey’s for under 5 bucks. Just google them and look for the chainsaw supplies link. Some wine place link comes up first.
You need to hold the tip of the bar up when you’re tightening the chain and nuts.
Firewood cutting is tuff work, I did it for years- I’m from Montana, so cutting firewood means spending a lot of time in the mountains, therefor we get alot of the people from town that come out and cut firewood for a living. I havn’t cut firewood for people for some time, but it’s good work.
In Montana you can buy firewood permits from the U.S. FOREST SERVICE, or cut from private ranches, the permits are cheap, but it’s the gas that’s hurting the cutters wallets out here.
Anyway, GOD BLESS.
Thank you for the information. I was wondering when a logger was gonna post a comment on this video. I may not use a chainsaw full time like you, but I can cut a truckload of wood without hurting myself.
I’ve been a logger for some years- I’ve found
that a the HUSQVARNAS have more torque than the Stihl, but for a long lasting saw the stihl has it- I use stihl saws in the log home building process, it’s a lot of long high-rev v-notch and saddle cutting that the stihl is great for.
Who in there right mind would diss a stihl?
The reason that you had to tighten and then retighten is because you turned the tension screw to far.
Always put the chain back on then tighten the tension just a bit, then when you tighten the bar onto the saw, make sure you have the case of the saw down, then when you tighten the bar onto the saw, put pressure on the nose of the bar by pressing it down on the ground or bench, this tilts the bar up as you tighten it and takes care of the rest of the slack.
echo has better quality than stihl
if your oil resivour is not low when your fuel is gone you should adjust you chian lubercater screw or you will wear out your chain and bar. your oil to fuel ratio should be 50:1 alway use hightest fuel and sthil oil.sthil ms270 chainsaws kick ass.
ok i’ll check again
Well your local dealer will sell Stihls: 2 stroke engine oil, that should be mixed with your gasoline, for the proper mixture, I cant remeber at the moment, Check your owners Manual. It may also depend which country you are from, Stihl sells diffrent products in diffrent places due to emission standards. For example the FS 38s manufacterd in Viginia Beach USA needed a CAT to be shipped to Canada
yeah i got it from my dad a while back
Proper protection, cutting chaps, hearing protection and cutting helmet is somthing i strongly recomend, Iv seen a pair of cutters chaps that the chain hit, they saved the ocupants leg. They ‘expolde’ and the strands wrap around the chain stopping it almost emediatly. Stihl makes some of the best cutters chaps I have ever seen.
Iv worked on some Stihl Products from the 70s. Like last year i did, I had to condem one only because it was one of the originals STIHL made and the parts werent worth the cost of the machine because it was an carborator problem
check your owners manual that came with your saw or weed trimmer. Are you using a Stihl?
thanks a lot for all your videos. i’ve enjoyed them all and appreciate the extra time spent.
what ratio for oil to gasoline should you use?
