Years ago I was on a crew as a carpenter and we did alot of alterations and remodeling in a major research university in Detroit. We had like ten of these saws, a laborer had the job of keeping them full of fuel, changing filters, cleaning them etc.. the same for mixers, demolition hammers etc. It was damn near a full time job. He brought them in for repairs when needed also. Can’t remember a time when one didn’t start 👍
Crazy that this video popped up for me. I just finished a job with a Stihl TS700 (very similar machines) that also needed a carb rebuild. Husky's are alien to me as a Stihl tech but it's interesting to see how two different manufacturers do things. Big fan of the Greasy Shop Rag here! Thank you for all you do. You and many others have taught me how to be a small engine mechanic , and I really appreciate it.
When i went down to my Husky dealer the other day there was one just like that sitting there in line for him to work on! I said looks like fun he said not really!!
I'm glad I don't have to work on these that often. They're a huge mess. You, the bench, your tools and the floor need a good cleaning before you move on to the next project.
What a monstrosity that thing is😆 Question…what brand T handle torx do you use? I’ve got two of those snappy 1/4” cordless drivers, one for work and home. Incredible little tools. Thanks…
I also have two but they are both at work. I like it so much I don't know if I could wait until the next week for the truck to show up. The T-handles are also SnapOn.

If you keep up with maintenance they are very robust. Sadly, most are run until they won't.
Great job on narrating,getting cold up there. Thanks for the videos. Central Florida
Thanks for watching!

He knows. Later.
What tough life those saws lead,
Yes and its even worse when they don't take care of them.
Wwoooowww! That was way beyond Schmutz degree 🤣
Surprised that inner working tunnel is tight and doesn't leak any dust 🤷
Ya they work in a pretty rough environment. Its surprising they hold up as well as they do.

You're right because the few times I didn't clean up afterwards the next project got messed up.
Scott, that thing is filthy, lol….. you’re a better man than I am! I would have left it, 😂
Ya they always come in filthy.
Oooooh Your in My Favorite Territory The Concrete/Rail Saws 😀😇😀😊 Scott 👍🏼
I'll happily ship them to you for repair. I'm not a fan.
@ Anytime Scott I’ll Be Happy Too 😀

@OK I figured as much for the use they get ,thanks!
On a side note the greenish hose on your mityvac is that fuel line or something else? Looks really flexible compared to the stock one I have.
Ya I wore the stock one out. This is just Oregon brand fuel hose.
@ do you remember the size of it?
@@air2bmc I think the barb on the tool is 5/16 so I probably forced 1/4" hose on it.
@ Thanks!
Where do you get your funnels from Scott???
Search for a radiator fill funnel.
The life of a concrete saw is only slightly more miserable than that of the operator. Laaaaater
Thats a good point. Never looked at it that way.
Ben there done that
The concrete saws lead a horrible life. Dust everywhere. Poor maintenance, abusive usage.
Agreed.
