Choosing your First Chainsaw...it's this easy!

What happens here

After cutting, the presenter performs a quick inspection of the chainsaw. He points out the significant accumulation of sawdust and debris around the bar, chain, and sprocket, emphasizing how quickly a chainsaw can get dirty during use. He reiterates the importance of regular cleaning and maintenance for optimal performance and to prolong the life of the tool. He holds up the chainsaw to clearly show the condition of the chain and the amount of debris collected in the mechanism.

Goal: Understand the need for regular chainsaw cleaning

Tools and materials

  • STIHL MS 170 Chainsaw STIHL — Demonstrating post-operation condition

man we got a mess let's talk about all this I don't know if you can tell but we cut a whole lot of trees out there and what we're doing here it's just taking out the trees that are all twisty and why me so that the big pretty trees can grow bigger and prettier so that's what we're doing by thinning all this out I have got some work ahead of me so don't need the gym today I need the woods it's good stuff let's go over here and we'll talk about the MS 170 and give you some feedback tell you what I think might be the only real downfalls of this saw and what might be the best part of this saw 45 minutes into using this saw I'm breaking a sweat and it's 35 degrees outside man it is a workhorse this saw has put me to work so the number one thing that I like about this saw the very best thing is that it's so lightweight now you shouldn't be using a chainsaw with one hand but it's really really lightweight so it doesn't fatigue your arms now the one thing that I don't like about this saw is that the dogs on it right here where you grab onto the tree are not really very well they're they're tough but they're not metal I would like to see metal dogs on there but at this price point of a saw I think you're gonna find yourself looking elsewhere and finding an inferior saw with little doodads on it that might make it look better so all in all I've used the pollen Pro saw that's fairly similar to this I've used a whole lot of chainsaws here on the farm and I go right back to the MS 170 it's lightweight you don't have to do a lot of maintenance to it so the average homeowner can use it you just blow it off when you get done with the air hose and call it good or you can just tuck it away run it out of gas and tuck it away for the winter or for the summer however you like to do your chainsaw work so I recommend it it's an absolutely awesome saw it last it's proving itself on the farm and don't trust a guy that does a chainsaw review on a saw that's not dirty trust a guy that's using the saw this is a good machine thank you guys so much I hope you enjoyed this video if you have any questions or comments post them down there in the video description I'll post them linked to that cool gas can it's made by Husqvarna I haven't seen anything like it I love it it's my go to it goes with me everywhere that my chainsaw goes and you can see up here we have our Husqvarna 460 Rancher great saw also already done a review on it this is the lightweight go to best homeowner saw that I…
