Unfortunately it is not on the market anymore. I guess no spare parts as well.
Hand file - check out buckin billy ray. That dude has changed my life with having a sharp chain. Makes cutting wood enjoyable. The 3 pack harbor freight chain saw files is where it’s at, way more aggressive than stihl files. Gut that gullet!!!!!
You’ve said that before, I prefer to sharpen it with a bench saw grinder but of course that won’t work in the woods
Fragile little thing, this can't be tossed around without care. That bar sticking out of the box might get bent if no attention given. But might last longer than a year.
We shall see
Just get a stli 251. I have a 18 in bar. Made the in laws look dumb when you know how to work a smaller chainsaw with skill you dont have to brag about size.
😊😊😊🖐🖐🖐👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Flip a coin…. Those saws are a crap shoot same as the Poulan “wild thing” saws they sold…. Might not even start the first time you take it to the bush, might be the best saw you’ve ever owned.
Shoulda bought a couple Silky saws, they always start but are prone to operator error.
I feel the same way time will tell
Having extra spark plugs with you is a must!
That’s a good point
Does anyone know the type of replacement carburetor for this chainsaw
I haven’t taken it apart but most of these style of chainsaws all use generic parts
I've had one from Amazon I've had for 6 years only thing went wrong with it was pull starter
That’s good to know
The on/off switch on that saw seems to be in a terrible spot and way to easy to switch off while in use.
I’m not a fan of the chain tensioner system. Relies on plastic and that’s usually what wears out. Don’t get me wrong, I have a poulan since the early 2000s that I’ve muffler modded. Should be fine but be careful with that chain tensioner.
20plus years with a Poulan is pretty good
Not a fan of off-brand saws. Electric, in my opinion are for drills and other shop tools. Had 8 different Stihl products and would never buy the cheaper homeowner line again, work okay for a while though very gutless and light duty. The commercial and professional lines are the way to go, cost more, start easily and take alot of abuse and are meant for the long haul. Also very impressed with Echo products, have 1 and would'nt hesitate to buy another.
Totally understand, spend the money get commercial grade and not worry
Always a gamble buying off-branded tools. Your pretty handy so is say you’ll keep it running like a champ
Sure is a gamble time will tell
Jerry, that should be a great budget saw and last for years considering the seasonal use. The case to carry/protect the saw and carrying accessories needed just adds to the positives. Great idea. Besides, it’s just cooler to burn irreplaceable fossil fuels instead of self igniting lithium batteries 😉🇺🇸
Time will tell for sure
Ethanol free gas will keep it running good for years!
Isn’t that the truth
You ever gonna buy a matching top box for your snap on tool box?
No never
Maybe you won't loose this one lol jk beg my pard
Geez…… I sure hope not
Supposedly it is made in China to Stihl quality control standards. Seems better than a Poulin, but probably not as good as an Echo from big box stores. Sachs (formerly Sachs-Dolmar) makes a really nice homeowner line that are well priced, if you can find them. I believe Makita bought Dolmar so they may be branded under Makita now, I don't remember, but still a good saw. Both Sachs and Stihl are German engineered.
I have had several Stihl chainsaws and weed eaters over the years and never had an issue with any of them. I also own a 36" logger made by Dolmar and love it. I solely heated with wood in windy Indiana for 40 years, thus the need for reliable saws. Just me, but I would take it back and get a professional saw if you plan to use it much. Will only cost a little more, and well worth the headache of a saw that doesn't want to run when you need it. Happy New Year Jerry .....and Kitty Kat
I few people have said Echo I have no experience with them
@@BackCountryWrenching I have three of them from Home Depot. I had a demolition company so that is what I bought to clear the lots. They are actually pretty well made and were very reliable. Especially considering my employees didn't give a shit about them because they didn't buy them. I bought those three over the course of 6 years and they were pretty much used every day. Something usually happened to them. You know, everday type stuff .... house falling on them, an excavator running over one, lol. Frankly, if I just wanted a saw for cutting every now and then, they are exactly what I would buy.
You know how to treat your stuff properly so I'm sure you'll get good use out of that saw. I bought one of those crank sharpeners from Amazon. Returned it after 2 days. I could not get it to work. A file is way faster and easier.
Interesting on the file sharpener in the future I maybe looking for disappointment
@@BackCountryWrenching I wish you luck on it.
I think that the current test for this is going to be when you actually put it to some wood and how easily it binds. I have found with many chainsaws that they can run just fine without working them, but once you put them to the test, some of them will bind up very easy and that’s where it gets frustrating.
I did cut some firewood in the wilderness camping and it seemed to work quite well
The way I see it I’ve owned stihl products and craftsman S205 chain saws and McCullough chain saws but that one depends never heard of that one my guess test it till it fails
I’ve never heard of it either
Yeah that’s the funny thing I live in north Nashville TENNESSEE and first time I’ve seen one of these on your channel I’ve seen husky and stihl and echo craftsman it’s been in the shop and seen some old stuff too the old school husky and craftsman and stihl had one customer send me a all electric weeder or up north would say weed whacker but yeah I turned that down I deal with 2 stroke and 4 stroke weeders but yeah gas is all I deal with
Both items are shit!
You don’t like the chain sharpener ?
@@BackCountryWrenching no. Its to slow.
On sale now for $225. Seems like it would make a good backup saw to have or even just to keep in the SxS
For a trail saw in the winter I think it will be fine
I'll guess that if its used for seasonal type use, that it will last at least 10 years if well maintained and serviced. It'll be interesting to see how it works in the wild! Good Luck!
Yes indeed
Happy new year to you , I think the plastic stuff can brake easy if it gets frozen and hit accidentally .
I noticed that too especially the cover
hopefully it will be a useful mashine for You
Happy New Year 🍺
Happy new year to you as well
That thing will probably last for years if you're just using it for campfires and you take decent care of it. The Chinese stuff seems to be getting slightly better over the years and the OG stuff seems to be getting worse, maybe they'll meet in the middle somewhere, someday. You can borrow my old collection if you want to do a comparison.
That’s pretty much all it will be used for
Great price 👍 I bet it's much better than a poulan 😉
If it last more than 20 hours then we will see
Based on the “video includes paid promotion” at the beginning, did you get the Saw for free? I don't care either way, but so many RUclipsrs get free stuff and don't mention it anywhere. Happy New Year by the way 🍻
Cut that wood...you should cut in that time thenother saw didn't run...lol...epic...happy new year to ya...
Happy new year to you as well
I think it will run just fine Jerry, it's all the plastic that might become brittle in the cold......
Yes I agree time will tell
If abused it should last a good while. I’d prob spent 2x the $$ and got a husky or echo. Stihl has gone to Chinese crap for their homeowner saws. Husky has some good budget models.
Looking forward to a follow up on how it works out after a few days of cutting.
Next one will be a husky for sure
If I had a spare parts saw would send you a 50cc class ported saw to play with. Smiles per cut is key and ear muffs😂
Smiles per cut is a good one 🍻🍻🍻
Trudeaus not giving this video a like, that’s for sure.
He’s sad cause I didn’t keep the electric full time
How dare you!
