Probably the best ‘how to’ video on YT regarding using this bad boy. Very straightforward walk through of all the functions and procedures, good work sir. Greeting from England.

Great help! Just bought a Stihl m170, can’t believe this video isn’t included on a CD when you buy one.

You've got a serious talent for teaching. Just bought my first saw, a stihl 170. This video was fantastic. I just subscribed and I hope you keep at it.

Thanks - very helpful video. One obervation - other vids I have watched saw one should apply a little upwards pressure to the tip of the bar BEFORE tightening the chain and keep the upwards pressure as the two lock nuts are tightened. Regards - Simon Adelaide / Oz
@Carlsmower3 жыл бұрын
Agree! I always hold up on the chain as a table in the bar nuts I’m sorry if it was not clear in this video. But thanks for the great feedback. Always trying to get better.

I’ve watched a lot of these and counted the strokes necessary initially. That number is usually around 7 pulls. Just saying in case yours doesn’t burb at 1 to 2 pulls. Thanks for posting, quality camera work, well done and thorough.

also make sure to hold the tip of the bar up when tightening the chain.

Did your MS170 have soft (or easy) start or a compression release?

I know the recommended range is 12-16" but would I be able to run an 18" Stihl Rollomatic-E Bar on this chainsaw?

So, if and when you have finished with the chain saw do you loosen the chain or leave it how it is

almost cut myself because i didn't watch this video earlier. i read the manual and all but didn't know i had to engage the break... a lot of fear starting with the "down on the ground with a feet on the handle" method.

Hi Carl - I assume that one can purchase online from your store. If so, how do you have equipment serviced ehen you have an issue when located out of State (Chicago)? Preferably, I'm interested in the purchase of the Honda mower HRX217HYA model. Since this mower is a little pricey, do you have special price discount promotions, run coupons or bundle purchase of two or more pieces from time-to-time? Thanks!

ALWAYS…..”drop start” your ms170 (‘cause it makes you feel like a MAN, baby!) AND….ALWAYS upgrade to an.050 bar and chain, put on some good dogs and change to a side bar adjuster. None of this other stuff makes you feel like a man as much as it just makes life a bit easier.
@Carlsmower2 жыл бұрын
Or just buy an MS462 wrap with the westcoast dogs.

My 170 must be weird. It came with a side adjuster.
