Chainsaw Overview and Oil Check

all right we're in the woods let's talk about this saw and then I've got to get busy man the Sun Goes Down so fast in the wintertime here in the woods so what we have again is a steel ms1 70 I've had the MS 170 and the MS 171 the 171 that I had you know was basically identical to the saw it's just kind of a newer looking model there may be some carburetor differences there I'm not totally sure reason I say that is I had a lot of trouble getting my 1 71 to start and run appropriately I took it back to my Steel dealer he said well some of them start and run good and some of them you know they're just a little harder to start not really something I wanted to hear from my steel dealer if you work for steel you probably don't want to hear that either so this is a 30 cc around a 30 CC saw weighs about eight point seven pounds with the bar probably weighs about nine point two pounds so it's a basically a 10 pound saw this is kind of Steel's entry-level gas-powered saw now I've yet to try the electric saw we're going to get one of those and we'll do a review on one of those very soon here on the farm vlog because I'm curious myself I like electric power tools whether it translates over into the chainsaw market I'm not sure I'm on the fence so hopefully steel will make me a believer and we'll probably try out some other brands like Dewalt steel and Milwaukee or Makita so this is two steel MS 170 it can come with a 16 inch bar or 12 inch bar I believe this is a 16 inch bar the chain needs to be tightened just a little bit I've used this saw man I've used this offer somewhere in the neighborhood of three to four years it's been a little workhorse for me it's been a great saw as you can tell this isn't the look of a brand-new shiny saw when I watch a review on youtube or anywhere I want to watch a review of a guy that's been using this saw so over the past three to four years this saw has been an absolute rock star I have not started it today what we're going to do is we're going to go ahead and we're going to they're chained up we're gonna get it all filled up with bar oil and lube we'll show you how all that works and we're gonna start it for the first time for you guys to show you just how easy and how good this sauce starts it's an easy tug in other words my wife who's 120 pounds can tug it and start it so
