Power heads = ratchets (1/4, 3/8, 1/2 drive) guide bars = extensions chains = sockets (deep, 6 point, metric, etc.) choose what you need for the task at hand. So thinking the bigger 455 saw with 20 bar, that i could have the flexibility to swap bars and or chains on between 20 and 18 and 3/8 and.325 chain Used it once and put it away

Today i see oil has run out of the bottom of the case it's in
Took it out of the case, cleaned the oil off the bottm, but can't tell where it's coming from
I assume it's chain oil I took the saw to the local stihl service shop this morning Their guy tried it, and said it's fine as is He showed me a new technique for starting, too
Instead of holding the saw stationary, and pulling the cord, he held the cord, and dropped the saw with his other hand It does make it easer to start. Hey guys, i have a bar here that's 3/8lp,.050, 56dl There's a decent sale price on some loops of 3/8lp,.050, 57dl
Wondering if the one extra drive link would be okay to run?
However, to reduce the severity of injury from accidental contact with the chain, stihl recommends that leg protection be worn when operating these types of chainsaws. philbert Why do these chains have double rakers side by side My brother and i both have the same stihl saw He was having trouble with his chain/bar overheating and he switched over to a standard single raker and it was night and day
It also makes it harder to file down, and the progressive style. More oiling for chain speed and generally faster cutting 8 pin only if using a saw with way too little bar length for its size, like a 70+cc saw with a 20” or less. Picked up this little echo the other day, filled it up with gas and oil, ran great
It was late in the day and getting dark, so just brought it in and parked it for the night
Next morning, found oil all over the place Just figured there was some pressure built up. (i saw the green meteor boxes, but missed where you stated it Heard it on second watch.) for reference, do you usually mix your own fuel
What has been your mix of choice and how do you feel these compare Few thoughts on pump gas.
