I just want to tell you what a breath of fresh air your videos are. Too many others are examples of how to turn a five-minute short into a half hour torture drill. They digress with talking about the weather, what the wife fixed for dinner last night, needing to mow the lawn, etc. Or, they leave the camera running while they rummage through their cluttered workshop looking for a screw or some misplaced part. One guy's narrative was completely drowned out by a TV soap opera blaring in the background. I just cringe when they ask the viewer if you "can see this" when their camera is 25 feet away. It's enough to cause a migrane. I really appreciate how you get right to the point and begin with a diagnostic/troubleshooting premise, offer helpful problem solving techniques, and then conclude with the steps you take to complete the solution.

Thanks for sharing. I have made an observation about this saw. I noticed insufficient oil so I took it to my dealer for diagnostics and sharpen chain. Still not oiling so I took it back and they announced that it was fine. I sawed some more, still very little oil. After watching your video, I removed the cover to find much oily debris inside, none, or not much, on the chain. my analysis revealed that, since there is no outer guard (the thin steel piece found against the body of the saw), oil is allowed to pass through the bar, and into the brake/tensioning system. The plastic cover doesn't block this passage as there is open webbing it this location. I will fabricate a thin metal plate (like every other saw I've seen is equipped with), install it and report back. I found no diagrams that pictured this part. Thanks for the confidence. Nice job.

it needs to be spelled out: most chain saws are built to go through most of a tank of bar oil every time it goes through a tank of gas. don't just check the oil; top it off, and if it went through significantly less than a tank, check to find out why. and I always say: buying a cheap grade of oil (rhymes with burex) reduces your oil usage, but I've found it cooks your bar and chain because it doesn't lubricate as well as buying a good brand of oil from your saw shop.

When I was a teen and became an expert lumberjack (NOT, but I was trusted to know everything about its use and allowed to cut) we had a McCulloh yellow/black thinghy and it had a thumb knob next to the handle that oiled the chain. Very trustworthy mechainism if you were conscious to use it right so the chain wouldn't turn purple/blue) With later saws I purchased the oil pump was invented and I still miss that manual knob. It is always a concern, is it oil is it not? I guess if you see smoke coming out of the log it is not!

Have a question about chain saws, chain and bars. I have on occasion found that I can no longer tighten the chain. Ran out of adjustment. How can I tell if the bar is worn out or the chain is worn out. Teeth on chain are good and sharp and cutting fine up to that point. Oiler and chain have been oiling fine. Have turned over bar. Have installed new bar and that seemed to fix everything. Is this an indication that the bar was just worn out? How long will a chain last? There is some play in the chain links. At what point is the chain worn out and or unsafe to use. I use my saws a lot for my outdoor wood burner. Thanks for your shows. You do a great job and have learned a lot. Do most all maintenance myself.
