Even though I feel Stihl is the best chain, I don't buy it because I don't want to pay that much. I buy woodland pro or Carlton most of the time.Bailey's - 16" WoodlandPro Chainsaw Chain Loop The top bar and chain combo plus this for extra chains would be a good match.. maybe or play it safe and get the 20NK66 woodland pro Bailey's - 16" WoodlandPro Chainsaw Chain Loop or just stick with the H30. some say they wouldn't budge from a narrow kerf, it cuts too easy.

If it is a new to limbing person, they'll get an idea of how limbs under tension work and how to stumble around in the brush. A sharp axe will take off a toe as fast as a power saw. Busheler gives good advice.

I never had a 450 but I did have a 520sp and the 450 appears to be a even smaller version of it. That said, no way would I want one. The thing is a joke the way its put together. The intake boot is held on with a piece of wire for gods sake and the carb has rubber doughnuts on it to keep it from flopping around.

Flippy caps. One idea is to switch the caps. Take the flippy caps off, Clean the flippy caps, Put them back on,and go cut trees. If gas leaks out 3/10 times then, ask the dealer for "A new flippy cap." If oil still leaks and gas is ok,maybe it's. the threads inside the tank.Reaction score. 4,091. Location. East Lansing, MI.

A pro saw would be best, but a homeowner saw from Stihl or Husky in the 50cc range would probably be fine. Then keep the 445 as a backup, and the craftsman as a loner.Replacing the ignition and flywheel did not produce a spark, it didn't make sense, hence the post looking for suggestions.

The chains were new (only 1-2 sharpenings) and were improperly spun at a dealer.

N California. Apr 10, 2007. #17. We offered a narrow kerf .325 bar (ArborPro) for the Stihl 024/026 saws for about 2 years, but because the bar is thinner than a standard bar, and the stud shoulder thicknesses are not that consistant on those models, we had some bars that never clamped down tight enough.

Okay, in the market for a chainsaw and want a Stihl due to closeness of dealer and past good luck with brand (trimmer / blower). Have it narrowed down to: Ms270 MS280 MS290 MS310 260 I realize this is a wide range, but only reason I lean away from the 290 and 310 is the weight.

Put a tag on the saw, "drained, purged, and preped for shipping" with a signature, "saw tech".The main differences are the "dished" piston and the much more restricted muffler of the 261. The clutch is also different - weaker on the 261. That saw family consisted of the 154se, 254, 262xp, 254xp, 257 and 261, in order of introduction. By far the longest lasting model was the 262xp, made from 1989 to the late 2000s.There are also some other minor differences in the saw, from what I can see, such as the design of the vents on the side of the housing.

As much as it will rub folks the wrong way here at ArboristSite, I'd probably go with an MS290 if I was in your shoes.
