This video actually saved me from injury and the last ice storm we had in southern Mo I had about 20 of these trees on my road into my farm. Thank you.

Excellent info. Kept me working in the 🪵

Top first typically for me, if cutting a Humboldt its gun first, but im usually in a bucket ir climbing then so its much different.

Great video!

Isnt rapid charging not good for longevity of the battery?

Im running pump gas 90 octane in my 550 with no issues 3 years. But ill select the non ethanol at the pump and pump a gallon or two in my truck before filling my gas can for the saw

You have reminded me of some bad practices that I have. I won't embarrass myself with the details. I'm reassessing. Thanks for the advice. A lot of people need to see and learn from this video. Big thumbs up.

Got the opportunity to work with him in early 2000s good dude!!!

I was checking my files with a craftsman chain I wanted to see what was being removed so I marked the cut part blade on the where the file scrapes away with a red magic marker and to my surprise one file took metal from the side of the plate but did not from the top beak part at least it showed me how it was filing so I could use the correct file size....Great video thanks.

I found now is the time to be buying mtronic i know theyve done a lot of tweaking

I would love to have a bow guide. I remember seeing a bunch of them being used by my neighbors cutting trees from the roads after Hurricane Hugo in Charleston, SC back in September 89. I have 4 chainsaws. Would like one on my Stihl MS 250 or Husqvarna 445.

its insane that NONE of this information is in the owners manual.

Wooooooooooow nice

In papua new guinea 🇵🇬 I joseph yaneke a chainsaw supervisor is listening and enjoying everything here...

That's great information thanks I'm going to try tomorrow I was wondering why the thing was idling terribly I just got it put fuel in it oil and it wouldn't idle

Good conversation! So many great new saws in recent years. But like you covered tonight, chain sharpening is key.

If the branches easily crack like Alnus amd Acer and several others, you get a hint.

Hello Tim , I’m new follower ,I want to ask you where can I get one of those chain tooth for training purposes I’ll appreciate your answer

Excellent video. Thank you.

Great video bud. I work for a well known tool rental company and had a 555 come off rent with a ten psi loss of compression. It ran okay wide open but it would not idle. I installed a new cylinder head and piston after seeing scoring on piston and cylinder wall. Ran even better after that but still no idle. Finally saw this video and tried the auto tune reset and by golly it worked

I just picked up a new 592 XP from a local feed store today. When I first ran it the saw kept dying at idle, like about a dozen times, im up here in the mountains at about 9,000 feet. I walked around the property with the saw idling and cutting small standing dead trees every now and then. After about an hour it idled perfect. I do notice that the high speed is rough still, I'll have to try that 90 second cut thing. Also, I dumped the dealers gas and put in canned gas and immeditely I noticed a big difference in performance. That canned gas is like magic.

I like what was said by the man in AL and by Keeth. Slow down, look at the situation and make a plan.

Such an appropriate take on the giving and receiving of safety training information. Thank you Tim.

Starts them and then touches the throttle and it dies. When you start them leave them alone do not touch throttle! When it says start them and let them idle it doesn't mean start them and then blip the throttle!

Struggled with chain sharpening until I purchased Stihl 2 in 1. Makes me enjoy cutting a lot more!!

favor - is your wife Laura Tanner Ard - with Plexus

Tim, this is one of the best sharpening theory videos I've found. You have obviously coalesced an entire career into these insights. Thank you so much!

Nice tribute! God bless

I never thought a high stump shot on a heavy tree could lead to a crushed hinge and potentially a misdirected fall. Thanks!

Great information, thank you.

Great video, loved the music, great tribute! When I go that far on a clean up I'll go ahead and pop the e clip on the clutch and wash the the needle bearing with brake clean spray and reassemble with a dab of grease, the cleaning can leave water and grit in there. I follow that with a start and good warm up to help it dry. Thanks for posting the vid!

Love this. Stihl Varioclean is also an excellent product, but I will caution - it’s of the “high-test” variety. It melts hardened pine pitch. Use sparingly, and enjoy!

A clean saw is a happy saw. Thanks Tim.

Even saws need a little tender lovin care. My wife went to the saw shop to get my saw and out of the 10 or 15 saws on the floor she automatically knew which one was mine. She told the front desk lady in her strong Cajun accent …. ”Cher, I know which ones my husband’s saw. He would never bring in a saw lookin like those over there”.

My cleaners: S100 Total Cycle Cleaner, Super Clean (small metal parts, and chains only), air compressor, STIHL's hedge trimmer blade cleaner and resin remover, brushes, and some rags.

No demonstration of how to use the file or the file size for a particular chaim.

Good informative explanation, Have used Xp and Professional Autotunes . Great saws.

Congratulations, Warren

Excellent reminders! Thanks for setting and holding us to keep the standard!

Good stuff Tim

Who makes the better saw husky or stihl

To thick hinge, and probably been cutting it from straight backwards. Best solution here is to stick the saw in behind the hinge, and finish the hinge with correct thickness before you start the main cut. When correct thickness on the edge is achieved, then you finish the main cut cutting from hinge and bakwards. In scandinavia its called the storm-cut. Safe with no barberchair. Some species have stiffer fibers than other, and the thickness of the hinge is more important. Greetings from Norway :D

One of the little saws I have; has an .043 3/8lp. The one I'm comparing it to has an .050 3/8lp. My question is; are the cutters the same size, and do they take the same size file? I just got back into chainsaws. In my younger years; I ran Stihl 051, 075, and 090; with 30", and 42", and 60" respectively. But now; at 70; 0:02 I'm getting back into chainsaws; but battery operated. I have a few mini saws, a 10", 12", and 14" Greenworks, and two EGO 18", and one EGO 24"! I have loads of fun with them. I can eyeball the size of a file that LOOKS to be correct; but I was just wondering about the cutter size between the two gauge sizes. Thanks for getting back to me so quickly.

I'm not really understanding file size. I'm pretty sure that the cutters aren't the same size for a 3/8 .043, and a 3/8 .050. Am I wrong? Would you use the same size file for both chains? And yes; I do know what the various numbers mean. It just seems like the cutters are bigger on my .050 chains; compared to the .043.

B is the main reason but C and d contribute

Definitely hinge too thick. I can't say that I've never done that before, a couple of times, even with a bore cut and proper length hinge, which surprised me at the time, but I learned my lesson.

B. Hinge too thick due to D. Lack of experience. The face looks like it might be only 10% of the diameter?

all the above plus several more.

Bravo, Men!
