Cleaning up Deadfall with Husqvarna Chainsaw and John Deere 755

[@tombauer7330]

Excellent point on the Oregon chains, Mike. You're a dandy smart feller.

[@markg9674]

The Triple Nickel is good, but darn it Mike, the 755 is loyal. The way you were swingin' that logsplitter, a guy might think you were in training for an upcoming firefighter calendar...

[@Yackhammer75]

Sometimes I enjoy the side channel more then the main channel. Not because there is anything wrong with the main, I love it. It's just sometimes the behind the scenes are really interesting and a person can see and learn some how's and why's that maybe make more sense then what they are doing themselves. Either way I always look forward to content from both channels and hope to see them for many years to come.

Brakes? Who needs brakes.... you've got 2 feet.... Fred Flintstone that Ranger! 😂

🤣

[@alexosborne5629]

Always something to keep you out of mischief, well in theory 😂 Good of Hipa to send you some chains to try out, nothing will really be Kleemanproof 💪💪💪🤣🤣🤣

[@chrishelms1967]

Was definitely making some nice wood confetti

[@everestyeti]

I'm with you about product loyalty when it comes to chains, lets face it it doesn't matter who the manufactures them, if you going to hit a rock or a piece of metal its going to blunt it. Unless of course you have a conrete cutting chain saw, but even then the blades need replacing frequently. 👍

[@tonynieuwlandt5407]

Imagine if a fella had a new invention, a piece of equipment with a 3rd function attachment like oh say a grapple to move all that stuff. That would be cool to see. Can't wait to see you runnin' around the property cleaning up all kinds of stuff😉

[@michaelbrowne8068]

Took the words right out of my comment 😂

[@buddyreed2623]

If you look at the other channel, he is already working on that very thing.

[@tonynieuwlandt5407]

yessir I was kinda using Kleeman's own style of self humor there, to poke fun at him. No disrespect intended.😇@@buddyreed2623

[@warrenmichael918]

@@buddyreed2623 i think he was using sarcasm due to the fact that Mike just made the exact thing he was describing. Im not sure the time line of this video , so maybe it wasnt done yet.

[@Kleeman1]

This was filmed before the grapple project 👍

[@jerryc3050]

👍Enjoy this channel almost as much as you other one.

[@Kleeman1]

I appreciate that!

[@joedefort8428]

Fiskars axe and a chainsaw, you look like a home logger to me. 😉 The chips coming off the saw after you sharpened it looked good.

[@HalsPals]

You swing that ax like you know what you're doing. Captain Kleeman is always my hero but the ants probably think different. You home wrecker! lol

[@terryrogers1025]

Best chain to run, hands down, is a sharp chain in a well maintained saw, can’t beat it. Thanks for the update sir.

[@Kleeman1]

You got that right!

[@markpashia7067]

One thing about land, there is always something needs doing. I saw you cutting and thought to myself, you cannot tell much about a chain until you put it in the rocks and bingo, you did just that. Let us know as time goes on. A good low cost chain for most is all they need and only time will tell. Hope to see updates over time. Like you said most chain saws are not out working ten hour days every day like Logger Wade and his bunch. Just around the homestead is a whole other ball of wax.

[@zburdette1223]

Love watching you with new toys.😊😅

[@garulusglandarius6126]

Excellent video Mike 👍🇬🇧🇺🇸

[@bobbrown6682]

Enjoying your side channel Mike!

[@Kleeman1]

Glad to hear it!

[@Manoffire260]

Mike - looks like you got the same problem we got here in southern Ohio, so much deadfall. Started over a decade ago with the dry hurricane Ike, then the emerald ash borer hit us hard - probably 1/3 of our standing timber is now dead. I’ve been trying to mitigate my potential for wild fire - (yes it happens here) and at least trying to remove and pile the brush components. I’ve been working with both a forester and a wildlife habitat consultant and we now have plenty of rabbit and bird homestead now, and hopefully are far less “combustible”. Also hoping to initiate different types of hardwood into our wood stand. Thanks for sharing - best of luck!

[@Kleeman1]

It's an on going battle for sure. A delicate balance between habitat and tinder box

[@randydobson1863]

hello mike & it's is randy and i like yours video is cool thanks mike friends randy

[@benhamilton8132]

Thanks for sharing love both channels

[@home-powersystems7782]

Thanks Kleeman for a nice little video, good thoughts on brand loyalty.

[@kylejones2075]

Maintenance rewards thanks for sharing

[@Sleekfalcon]

I actually took from your previous video and we ordered some new chains for my saw so I can cut firewood this winter. I typically just used my saw for trimming and such but now we hear with wood and chains aren't cheap but if cheap chains will do the job, might as well go with it. I purchased a used saw and the chain wasn't the best to begin with. New chains should be in today. Being able to buy multiple chains for what one costs at the box store is a win for me. Thank you for sharing. I personally take from many streamers and you are definitely one of them because I am similar to the way you like to do things. I'm always open to trying something new if it will benefit my homestead and is in the budget.

[@Kleeman1]

Awesome!

[@tbix1963]

Thanks for sharing, wishing you and your family the best.

[@Kleeman1]

Same to you!

[@johnsmart3587]

U THE MAN! THANKS.

[@maxobara1496]

Get Bones to hold that log up💪👍🇺🇸

[@buddyreed2623]

Hi Mike. That chain was throwing out some nice chips. It looks like a good chain and if they cost a little less than the other brands, then they look even better. Have good days!

[@sparky11772]

Good morning Mike

[@Kleeman1]

Morning!

[@bobmoroney3643]

Your not a logger, BUT, you have a chain saw. Love your versatility.

[@jimdaly5077]

Hi, the day to day unsung work that usually goes on in the background, well done for giving it its view time, it’s not glamorous but essential👍🐝🌞

[@leoncolyer9420]

Hi guys from Australia 🇦🇺

[@erinmeyer6526]

Thanks for another great video

[@rhondasweeney7271]

This is your ongoing project. I enjoy every bit of it. Thank you for sharing! 👌

[@andychristopher3887]

I've bought carburetors from Hipa before and haven't had any problems with their products

[@Kleeman1]

Glad to hear it!

[@kevinkenyon7045]

Captain thanks for sharing! Kevin

[@tomswindler64]

Be nice to have a friend that has a larger mulcher than what you have.wouldn’t that be easier to maintain the trails,just saying.just keep up your positive attitude my friend.👍👍👍😎😎😎

[@darrelllitherland8880]

i do like this channel just as much as i enjoy your other channel at last you keep it real lol oh btw i do appreciate also that you keep it clean with your choice of words in a bad situation .. i know how hard it is and i do appreciate it ..

[@Kleeman1]

Appreciate the feedback!

[@bluegrallis]

Back when I heated with wood, I bought bar oil in bulk and used a syrup bottle to fill my saw. If I happened to get too much in, I could just squeeze some air out the bottle, tip it in the saw and suck some back out. Another tip, fill the oil first, then if you spill some, you can spill a little gas to rinse it off. 😛

[@CMDSR]

Brand loyalty is ok on some things. My biggest go to on purchases for a long time has been Made In USA. Seems though since the 1980’s or so each year it seems harder and harder to find anything made here. Even then a lot of stuff is simply assembled here from imported parts.

[@allensharlow7763]

Clearing a new piece of land is always fun, and looking at what you have accomplished is always gratifying, looking great Mike👍👍😎😎🤗🤗🍮🍮

[@Kleeman1]

Thanks 👍

[@americanpatriot2.06]

I was looking for a chain saw file and jig set. But I had no clue what size file I needed. Need to find the box the chain came in that was on the chain saw when I bought it, so I know all the chain and teeth dimensions. I don't think filing with the wrong size would do me any good! And considering price, having some cheaper but decent spare chains would certainly be beneficial for those times when you just don't want to stop and sharpen. Do that on the not so busy days. I really do need to work on my chain adjustment. I think I keep it a bit too tight because it seems too loose to me all the time. Probably wearing out the bar faster than it should. I do keep the bar oil topped off, so that is never an issue. And I need to start cleaning the chain drive and everything else more often. Dirt, wood bits, and chain oil tends to gum things up.

[@kevincarver9949]

Awesome video Mike. Just like all of them. Thanks 👍👍👍

[@clarencewiles963]

Thanks for sharing. Learning something new 🤔

[@dansevern3291]

Thanks for the entertainment while I had a second cup of coffee before going to work on "maintaining the things that maintain" (Captain, you nailed that!). Take care!

[@JOYR1234]

good morning have you thot about getting a grapple bucket for the 755

[@Richard-C]

sharpening chainsaw, i have tried that in the past,turns out i'm not good at it,by the time i finished sharpening it cuts worse than when i started 😁great video Mike 👏👏👏👏👏👌👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍👍

[@randybarber5308]

👍👍👍

[@toadtodd3758]

Remember equal strokes on ur chain it helps in the long run with a chain

[@young11984]

I need one of those chains that can cut rock and continue to cut wood fine, i find every freaking rock close to a log or in it. Most all chains now have moved manufacturing to China anyway, i have used super cheap chains that stretch quick but cut just as good as Oregon, Husqvarna and Stihl chains. I just buy 4-5 at the time and end of the day drop them off at a buddys house to sharpen for $2 each or just buy some more, i dont have patience or the IQ to sharpen them and if i do they usually can cut circles out of a log and annoy me lol

[@Kleeman1]

🤣🤣

[@smudger797]

🤠

[@blondelizard5453]

👍

[@cliffpalermo]

They make decent replacement carburetors as well. I always bought cheap jeans off of Amazon as they're so inexpensive. I just buy new ones. I don't think I've ever even sharpen the chain yet

[@glenniosbaker5193]

Looks like a job for the wopa copa

[@treemonkey_ma1718]

I've been running saws for over 30 years! I do prefer OEM chains, but.... I run a 42" bar on my 395xp, and that one uses a chain with 135dl. I found a guy who makes them for me for around $20, and if I buy 5, he includes the shipping. My local guy wanted me to buy the entire roll of chain, and he would then make them for me. They would have been almost $80 per chain. If a chain works out, doesn't matter who makes it

[@Kleeman1]

Well said

[@mikebroyles5107]

Looks like a good job for a grapple on a 555 if you know anyone that has one.

[@BarnyardEngineering]

"I hope I get to see you guys..." Kleeman can see us?!?!?! Gaaaaah! Glad I put tape over my laptop's camera.🤣🤣🤣

[@Kleeman1]

🤣

[@kenmazer9481]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@Herbybandit]

Trail clearing was just what a 555 with a grapple was made for! Just sayin! 😉

[@davidstanton197]

Looks like ya got a stick caught in your road drag there

[@johnunsicker7440]

You can say one brand is better but comes right down to it they are all about the same some might be a little better but if it cost 3X the money a cheaper brand will do just fine. Like HF tools good stuff for the price for 90% of the people that needs stuff.

[@Kleeman1]

Exactly

[@georgerogers542]

Isn`t ash good for slabbing for shelving and other pretty wood projects?

[@Kleeman1]

If it isn't punky

[@paulciampa]

saw dust is Man Glitter....

[@HalsPals]

That's actually funny. :)

[@workingwithadam]

Great video! Your going to Like your grapple when you cut up big stuff. You don't have to bend over and you will stop hitting rocks and dirt.

[@gakrazykajun]

I like how you just transition from one little job to the next to the next....all in just a little time...and then......SQUIRREL 🤣

[@Kleeman1]

🤣

[@criticalevent]

do you have a stump vise? I just used one for the first time and now I feel like an idiot for trying to find ways to hold the saw while sharpening in the field all those years when that $20 tool was available the whole time.

[@timkd5vmv583]

Good Morning Captain!! Quick question for you. How is that VEVOR Fuel Tank working out for you? And what do you recommend to use as a fuel stabilizer in it for this winter? Keep up the good work and Stay Safe!!

[@Kleeman1]

Fuel tank is working great still. I've honestly never used stabilizer, my fuel doesn't sit long enough.

[@Chico-td2fy]

Neat

[@jamesrogers6376]

Dam that sucks @ 4:05. Imho that chain is finished fer the day. When i was 12 a logger taught me about chainsaw use. A rule was to Never hit dirt. Check out guilty of treeson videos . He's on point.

[@HootMaRoot]

Isn't it oregon that make most of the bars and chains for most companies and they are just rebranded by husqvarna, stihl along with every cheaper chainsaw makes all use oregon bars and chains

[@Kleeman1]

Husqvarna makes their own chain now.

[@NoPlanProjects]

Man, saw chains and sharpening really bring out the armchair experts. I'm just a guy that cuts firewood and I figure if it cuts well enough for me, it's good enough. It makes no sense for me to make a whole hobby out of saw chains. Might be worth trying those chains. Them just sending you off some to try says something about them.

[@leekrauss7525]

They don’t look like chap pants- busted-take care

[@rfaulkner9597]

All your teeth are dull can see by discolored top edge ,I always sharpen new chain as don't have sharp edge from factory and lower riders to make saw cut fast
