So You Own A…FS 561 Clearing Saw

[@waults]

I just ordered mine, probably why YT put this video in my feed. Can't wait to see how it works!

[@Slickheadhunter]

I have the FS 461 and it’s awesome!

[@davidforman2937]

Really good explanation of the use and maintenance of the clearing saw.

[@waltflansburg5608]

Just picked mine up this week. Very hard to get one of these since very few dealers stock them and have an undetermined time of back orders for delivery. I had to drive several states away to pick mine up.

[@Carlsmower]

Good choice, Walt. Glad you got one!

[@mrfine00]

where you get this one can you share? I live in south Florida and the most the dealers carry is the FS 131

[@peacemakeful]

Have one and I love it !

How often do I need to Apple the grease

[@mnbucks2929]

Ordered mine and it just came in. Took a few months to get, but buy once cry once is my theory. Should last me for many years to come. Use it for clearing trails on hunting property and maintenence of the trails. Underbrush clearing for the benefits of the trees on my land and what not. This thing is an absolute beast. Was curious of the blade is able to be filed like a chain on a saw?

Hey man that’s neat how’s she treating ya!? I want one so bad, I have been kicking around the same theory.

[@mnbucks2929]

@@StihlRunnin It works great. Haven't found anything that stopped it yet. Walks through 3-4 inch trees like a breeze. Have cut up to an 8 inch tree with it even. Just be mindful of kickback when doing this

[@johncasey4077]

It looks like a great machine

I'm looking to clear a lot of brush, saplings, and deadfall from a ~12 acre wooded area. It's pretty dense with brush and fallen trees around 4-8 inches thick. Wondering if something like this would be ideal to clear everything out in sections or if its overkill? Was looking at the Echo 410U as an alternative - seems like that would be cheaper and better for just maintaining some trails but I don't know if it would handle larger areas and trees...

[@charlyapkarian1511]

Oh shit 5Ha ! ! ! With this sort of work this tool is not overkill at all but you're back will suffer if you must clearing often this surface !

[@kevinblitzcki2709]

Hello, Can you mount a trimmer head on this cutter and will it support a .170" gauge? Thanks

[@kevinbushell2746]

Hi Motomix Josh great video as always might be worth you pointing out that the larger brushcutters & clearing saws have to have the correct guard for the same head metal blade wont fit with a nylon head fitted and vice versa etc keep up the good work

[@Carlsmower]

Is this my new nickname? "Motomix Josh" I can dig it!

[@kevinbushell2746]

I hope other subscribers like and use it's not offensive just you giving good advice

[@willhunter2387]

I have an issue with my grease plug being a different size than the combination tool provided. Did anyone else have this issue and know what size security torx bit it takes?

[@SasquatchBunyan]

I need to save up for one of these too. Yup.

[@mrfine00]

can anyone tell me where can I get this from Florida?

[@KennyRedSocks]

What's the diametre of the aluminium shaft, between the handles and the gearbox?

[@gyulaiarpad]

38 mm

[@charlyapkarian1511]

A good advice man's ! never use motor tool in closed location (garage etc) because exhaust gas affected you badly !

[@roberthoovan4130]

Chap might be a good idea to

[@Carlsmower]

You were right because we’re not thing throw some stuff you can throw some stuff hard

[@falfield]

Not momentary kill button.....instant or immediate kill button.

[@roberthoovan4130]

Can u do huqva one next

[@Carlsmower]

I will see what I can do man

[@erikthoren4152]

Etahnol free fuel is a must but you can buy 4 cycle fuel and mix yourself to be 200% sure its got 50:1 mix. i never trust caned fuel the span is 1.7% to 2% you never know. i work on a place that sells canned fuel on bulk and the customer got there chansaw scored up even thugh its in the span of 1.7 - 2 % so i dont trut anyone. i mix myself and sell and the customer rather buy true me then the dealer they say its like rocket fuel.

I actually liked watching your videos until now. Why did you post a failed video? Did you need attention that bad or the views for money? WTF
