Chainsaw specialist Mechanic here. Unfortunately I have to say no, A lot of people do this, and the carburetor membranes harden up without a startup every month. To give you an indication of how bad this problem is, I get clients that need to get the carb membrane changed more than twice a day. I gotta say here, tho, in France, gasoline is VERY poor quality.

Bendraf..not a chansaw specialist mechanic here.. but you bring forward that Rey J is wrong and your arguement is because "the carburator membrane hardens up" ..you follow up that you have clients that need the carb membrane changed more then twice a day... The only thought that came to my mind is that if indeed these "cheap" chainsaws come with a bad membrane (as you claim as an arguement), wouldnt this problem then be resolved after the first time changing the membrane for a good one? Why would someone then have to change it multiple times a day and why is this related to a cheap chainsaw? Sounds to me like you are summing up a general issue with chainsaws that actually isnt related to the price. In my perspective that someone that requires a chainsaw usage a couple of times a year for here and there a tree to cut down on some brenches cutting, or even some log cutting for wood for the winter months.. I think such a cheap chainsaw isnt a bad option. Upkeep it well (drain petrol after usage and store cleaned and sprayed in WD) and it will serve you well for such light to medium usage. The advantage is as well the price.. for a 100USD.. you could go through like 6 of them to come to a price of an expensive one, not the most effective usage of resources though.
@Bendraf73
@Bendraf73 7 жыл бұрын
Oh yeah don't get me wrong here. I meant I do that operation at least twice per day, obviously not on the same chainsaws. The thing is, the membrane hardens up because the fuel in the carburetor rots, due to long storage without running the fuel into the saw. The thing is: I do this operation quite often for cheap saws and it takes a very long time, because of bad engineering and bad carburetor placement, and space management, etc... Also, there are many brands of carburetor on the market, at different price points. Cheap saw have usually chinese carbs, that tend to have poorly drilled holes and get usually clogged. We often recomend straight up changing the whole carburetor, sometimes its cheaper that taking the time to clean it and changing the membranes. I also do that operation on cheap Stihl saw, but the opperation is easy and fast, usually takes less than 5 min to get from a ready to work saw, from inside the carburetor. I rarely do this on pro stihl saws but obviously if you had a cottage/lake house, why the heck would you spend more the 200 dollars for a saw. My point is, get a cheap stihl saw, it's a bit more expensive, yes, but you'll have less often carb problems, and your mechanic will thank you lol It's all about perspectives really, but I can see why people would just go on amazon and buy those. I really consider making videos to talk about that topic.

Dear Cody, I've been with you guys since felling a tree with a shotgun ;) Over that time, the channel has evolved. I still enjoy every video as much as the last and can't wait for the next. But I will say I'm missing the humble homesteading videos. Perhaps it's a sign of the family work paying off and things have gotten established. The days of something having to be fixed or pruned or built everyday and put on video are in the past maybe. But the simple things like fixing a ram pump really had an endearing quality about them. I hope this comment has a little bit of nostalgic heart warming to you guys. Looking forward to the next video!

I run saws like this. Cheap, off brand, low to medium power. I also run low end husqvarna...a 240...which cost three times my cheap import saw. The cheap import saw is more reliable than the low end huskies. Not more reliable though, than high end ones, or any stihl. They are up to a fifth of the price of high end branded saws, and, for their useable lifetime, will do the work. The pluses. Cheap. Usable. Comparable safety features. Cheap spare parts. And they do the work I need to...I run a farm, and heat my home with firewood, cutting nothing over 2 and a half foot in diameter. You can buy 4, 5 or even 6 of the, for the price of a stihl or husqvarna. Negatives. You will go through spares. Tension adjusters, clutch springs, filters and sprockets will wear out quickly. They are reliable for the price, but I always have a backup saw. They are hard starting in cold weather, and hard starting generally. Your dealer may not have spares, and may not stand over the saw because of that. For me, it came down to economics. I can run a cheap 52cc saw at. Fifth of the price ofa Stihl. It will last me 5 years at least. I would not expect a stihl to last 25. If economics weren't a driver, I'd run stihl, no question. But off brNd saws have cut 4 cords a year of hard and softwood each year for the last 4 on my farm. For a fraction of the price. And when I estimate the costs over a ten year period, it's still cheaper to run off brand. Thanks for the review wrangler star.

If you don't expect a Stihl to last 25 years then you're just not looking after it. I have a Stihl dealership and frequently get 20,30 and even 40year old Stihl and husky saws in for service, or at least have the owners picking up parts to service them themselves. My personal saw is a 268xp thats 36yo and runs like a champ. My dad has a 38yo 024 super that cut close to 30years of firewood 6-8 cord/year before he just couldn't handle the work anymore. Saws still strong as hell. Another thing to consider is that quality saws, especially Stihl, have the parts to keep the saw running. If you can commit to maintaining it, it will last a very long time.

I don't. Nor does my stihl dealer. Or my chainsaw contractor. I live on bog, where it doesn't stop raining. Ever. It is always humid. And you are likely to spend half your time knee deep in swamp when you cut. My farm is technically dry land for less than half the year. Same with everywhere here. I think wranglerstar retired one of His stihls after 15 years too in a recent video. My dealer suggests about 15 years before a stihl saw would be retired. If you look after it. You don't see many old saws in use here. And no vintage. I asked him. 15 years. I respect stihl. I think their build quality and ethic is excellent. I would love to run two. I would be faster, more efficient, less frustrated, and happier. But even my dealer won't suggest anywhere near 25 years as a working life. Your a stihl dealer. I respect that. I respect your product. And if I had the money it is all I would run. I don't. So I run clones.

your 'it doesn't stop raining..on a bog' comment lends credence to my belief that iowa & midwestern agriculture is soley responsible for its own 500yr flooding events, i.e. microclimates. Bog climates shouldn't otherwise rain everyday unless the precipitation cyles were more prevalent at higher turnover velocity. These 15ft tall stalks hold a lot more moisture than former plains. I was in w.wisconsin bog country recently, & it was mostly normal dry weather, but i don't doubt you.

My next saw will probably be timber pro, which is available in both the US and in Europe, and people seem to like them. I had been using a HY5200, which is sold under lots of brand names...the one I have currently is actually completely unbranded. It's a 52cc saw with a 20 inch bar. In 4 years, I've replaced a clutch Spring, a recoil, the air filter, the whole clutch cover and brake bar piece...and that's about it. Parts are cheap. I also go through spark plugs faster, and have to service it thoroughly every year, or it's impossible t start. Many of the 52cc clone saws seem to be the same engine and internal a, but with different cases and features. It's been more reliable than my Husqvarna 240e, with more power, cheaper parts, and more uptime. But the reliability is not compared when compared with, say, a stihl. As I said, I think I'll try my luck with a timperpro 62cc saw next. There's lots of channels on KZbin of people running clone saws long term if you have a look, you'll get some good insights and advice about the pros, cons, and the different clones available. If you are looking to invest n one, I'd go find some of those channels, and look at the series of videos that look at the saw over time. Lots of Chinese saws work great for the first month, and then don't. The long term test guys will have a better perspective, and will save you money and heartbreak. I think kimballcody has some long term saws and love2boat92 has lots of long term reviews. Best of luck.

I hate taking trees down when its hot out just makes the job harder not to mention the tree is heavy with leaves in the summer. In the winter the job is only half the mess and work than cleaning up leaves all over the place. I don't wanna have a saw that I have to fight to get it going.

Two separate stems with "included bark" should not be felled together with a conventional notch and back cut. That can be one of the most dangerous jobs to encounter with standing trees. Each stem needs to be treated as a separate tree and felled accordingly. Those stems could have failed at anytime while making the notch or back cut, killing the operator. The visible seam between the two stems is a dead giveaway upon approach. The visible bark on each interior side of the stems once they are laid down confirms the presence of included bark.

With these chinese saws there is a way to start them that most people don't understand. They don't have a priming bulb and auto prime, you don't need the throttle. Open the choke and pull a couple of times 5-6 (max) whether it starts or not at this point, put the choke back in then start it, will usually come on in one pull. If the saw comes on and turns off with the choke out this the time to close the choke. I've had massive issues with these till I learnt to use them, now I've never had one not start within 3-4 pulls. If you keep pulling with the choke out you will flood it, at this point just leave it over night it will usually sort itself or you can probably open the spark plug and tip the fuel out. Hope it helps some people out there.

Been using these similar saws for 4 years in Aussie here they are branded bauma ag. Only they come with oregon bar and chain. First thing I did with the one I use regularly was strip it and exhaust port it. Power increase was supervising. Internally very nice needle roller bearing construction. They do have prob with poor filtration and also material actually getting past filter. Solved simply by leaving off external cover off air box. This particular saw I pulled from box stripped and ported then mounted to chainsaw mill fitters with skip tooth tungsten chain and then ran for over two hours at full throttle. Has never missed a beat in 4 years.

I started working in the forest when I was 12. I have used chainsaw ever since (stihl, jonsered and husqvarna). I usually keep close to the tree until I feel certain of where it's on its way. It simple to circle it close to the stump , way harder when you're not close to it.

Agreed, most of my tools are yard/estate sales. However, while the pro is that you pay pennies on the dollar, there are cons. Cons: you have to get there early early. Selection is extremely varied, you can go many times and not find what you are really looking for. Some things I have never seen so far, like a rotary hammerdrill, I've only seen a bandsaw once (there were 2 of them, lil guys, but still, i was on bike, so i picked up 70 pounds in my bag anyway...that was one of the better scores), things in high demand can be not as cheap as hoped, or again, you gotta be early. I saw a chainsaw once (also log splitter at same locale), and it was bein bought while i snagged other stuff (stanley planes, coleman lantern with metal case and the good radioactive wicks, various pokey bits and bearing stuff). Often estate sales are run by an agency, which is a whole other animal.... So essentially, do the yard sale thing as a hobby, and accept that it will take quite a bit of time (years likely) to be able to round out a shop. After doing it for awhile, you will get an idea as to what you need to buy new. But you cutta ma grass, i come for you! lol

It is not without flaws but the most important were fixable. Replaced the chain and the bucking spikes. The trigger mechanism is so flimsy that it often falls apart. Easily restored. The clutch is terrible. But yeah the bang for your buck is immense so i recommend it.

I bought a similar chainsaw from Amazon here in UK, for £85 (~$115) had a spare chain & looks very similar to the one you have there, but it was a "Parker" make. And so far it has been pretty good. I moved into a new property and needed to remove quite a lot of old trees and the chainsaw cleared them all with no problem. Not a professional job be any stretch of the imagination, but for the occasional use it really is a fair saw & I think if I maintain it well it will do me for a few years to come.

The casing and many parts look almost identical to my Victa saw. It's no Husky or Stihl, but for the money (I think I paid about $250 AUD), it does the job. Almost all our trees are hardwood, not softwood (mainly eucalypt), and it goes alright. The starting procedure is a bit finicky, but it usually starts ok if I do it as per the manual - ignition switch to on, choke out, press the primer 6 times, give it about 4 pulls, then put the choke in and pull again. It doesn't need to have the throttle held open, it starts and runs without touching it. I find that the trick is keeping the chain sharp all the time, because it just doesn't have the grunt of a Husky or Stihl.

Mine starts on the first pull every time once hot, two or three pulls when cold - you may need to fiddle with your carb adj to get yours just right out of the box. It doesn't like being turned on the side when low on fuel. All in all a good budget saw.

No, it was a McCulloch. My experience has been that if a chainsaw manufacturer wants to save money on the build they go to one nut not two. They put one compression ring on the piston, not two. Stihl has two nuts for all their pro line accept for the super light weight pro saws. Their entry level saws are now showing up with only one nut. Others have not had any problems with one nut. All I can say from personal experience is the McCulloch saw I had was terrible. Very hard to start and after you ran it the bar would loosen so you had to shut it off to tighten everything only to have another very hard start. The saw Cody reviewed has two nuts, ran well and was super cheap. On top of that you can purchase a warranty for around $13 so you cannot lose. You can run through 3 or 4 of these saws and still be under the cost of a Stihl. I only use Stihl because they work and work and work. One of my saws is almost 30 years old and I purchased it new.

The thing you have to consider with cheap tools is that you can find ones that work well and have the power needed for the job, but if they're made with cheap parts they're going to wear out faster. So I guess you have to decide if you buy something cheap that works *now* or something expensive that works *relatively* inevitably.

If he had to contact another professional tree felller to cut the trees down, it would have cost a lot more than 100.00 to drop them and clean them up. My mother-in-law had a tree drop from the country property beside her place onto her property. She had to have it removed even though it originated on county property. It cost her 500.00 to have it cleaned up and removed. The county should have taken care of it for her considering what she payed for property taxes and all. Bunch of county leeches. Not being critical of the fellers that removed the tree, they showed up within a day and had it off her property the same day they arrived so bravo to them.

I bought a cheap Chinese 20" chainsaw 2 years ago and it is still going. It runs like a V8 and has heaps of power. Generally the chain supplied is cheap so invest in a good chain and keep the saw clean and you have no problem. Was going to buy a Husky when it dies but I can't see it giving up any time soon. Only $160AU.

DarthDew87 Me too. Would a cordless be best for a home owner? And would it work for someone that does a lot of cutting? Those are the questions I would like answered. There is a real chance they could eclipse gas saws "someday" since there would be no vibration and fewer parts to break. I just want to know how the current line up of electric cordless saws stacks up.

You're a forestry guy Cody, You should know how to properly start a saw, Cheap off brand or not it makes no difference. I work at a Stihl dealer and I'm not even allowed to show the forestry approved method, The method you used was even more dangerous. You set an example with your videos Cody and that was a bad one. The Xtream Powersaw is similar to the old Stihls that had no trigger lock, It was a safety feature making sure that you held the saw down with your foot while also holding the trigger open a bit when starting.

It looks remarkably like the Remington Outlaw RM4620 I bought from Home Depot for $189. Although, the Remington has an Oregon bar and chain. I use it to cut down maples and oaks for firewood. I have never had a problem in 2 years of ownership. Hoping to buy a Stihl or Husqvarna if this one ever dies.

Right, my friend bough this saw. Told me it was great. After his third time using it it wouldn't start. I checked the compression. 75psi... So basically the rings/bore/top end was done (and yes he mixed the gas correctly). So you really cant form a review on one use. These companies only design it to last one or two trips. because by then the reviews are out and they are good. The engine is total junk.
@nunya9555
@nunya9555 7 жыл бұрын
YeCannyDaeThat. I am not gonna argue your statement. But I will say that most of the name-brand saw parts are made in China. And none of those are known to fail after one or two uses. Many of these use the same piston and rings, etc. I would venture to say that this on does too. Why reinvent the wheel? They just use off the shelf parts. I bought a piston ring for my Craftsman saw. It had a Husky label on the package. Made in China. Either your buddy got a bad one, or he did something wrong. Both can happen. I bet the majority of these saws are just fine.

Bryan Wilson I won a bet on that very thing. I told a friend my Craftsman was basically a Husky and called BS. Popped the lid off and it said Husky. It's a decent cheap saw. Change the bar and chain to a, you guessed it, Husky and you're good to go.

Startmakingsense Please Yep. I have a Jonsered (That says Husqvarna on the data plate) and a Craftsman. The plastic is slightly different, but these saws are made up of the same parts. I think a guy has to spend some real money to get an actual made in Sweden Husky. I want a really old Husky or Stihl with the metal body. I am tired of plastic. The Craftsman was lent out and a buddy over tightened the bar nuts and broke the chassis. Seriously. But a new part was cheap. It is back going again.

I´ve got exactly this saw for 5 years and I have to say. There are other names on it, but it's exactly the same. It really worked hard. Not professional, but work around the house... Many of branches, planks, boards even with nails in it :-) ... 5 winters heating only with wood. And thats much of wood in my country. The only weak part is starter. It's plastic here and it likes to broke. But it's easy to change even for me. And engine is pretty strong and everything other works well. Yesterday the oil pump brakes and some plastic is broken and mistaken.... but it still works. I had OleoMac and it has broken after 2 years of using.
