This format is the best lecture you will ever get someone that knows little and some one that knows a lot one asks all the questions the other then has to give the answer 110% great keep it going !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
After cleaning the bar with a proper tool, from the front to the back, I always clean the tip with air pressure, so that the sprocket rotates freely with its characteristic sound. Thank you Steve for your valuable information and advice!
I do ! It helps to remove all smaller particles. After I square and debur the bar rails it is imperative to blow out the tiny metal piece's that have been removed. Grease the tip and your ready to go.
@@larrymoberg3249 Absolutely ! Plenty of Lubrication for rails and tip. That's why you need to clean bar on occasion . When we ran chainsaws in the woods 8 or 9 hrs a day that evening they were cleaned completely and bars were turned over to allow even wear on the rails.
Sarah and Steve. What a great combination. I attach a zip tie to my scrench so that I have a “ soft” clean out tool in the field. Every time I take the chain off I can clean the bar.
Took your advice about running my lawnmower dry at the close of the season. Worked perfectly. Thank you. I am trying to find out what oil is safe to use in my Makita 6" cordless chainsaw. The bottle that came with the saw is very small. I need to find a suitable substitute. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.
you know what's great?...when a machine breaks down in the middle of a job and you're stressed and angry and so you get on youtube looking a quick diy video and you find a guy drinking a beer and explaining the solution to your machine in a fun way so that you can fix your machine without blowing up your shop and machine... anyway, the best part of your videos is that they demonstrate the importance of : stop, get a beer, chill a little and then go back and fix your machine and life is good... appreciate it there Steve...
Nothing wrong with a little air with eye protection to do a final clear .... and air can make the end cog if you wonna call it sing throwing off any debree as well then give it a bar grease injection and turn by hand adding a little pump of grease every 90 ° rotation to help it get in there ... no more air needed when greasing. Add chain and put it back on chain saw 😊👍😎 love ya videos cheers jp
Awesome good fun when you two are together! I wonder if either of you two could get through a video on leaf blowers that don't blow with straight faces.
Another gold nugget Steve and I wish I had the perfect words to impress Sarah. An incredibly intelligent,beautiful and talented woman.And then I heard her sing and I thought I would pass out. Ok that's it.
Watching your video Steve on this would solve so many oiling problems and issues. Comes down to seeing the signs (blued bar, worn chain, dry chain)… proper maintenance and care. 👍🏻👍🏻Steve!!
I just fond your channel a couple of days ago. Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Question; I use a Stihl chainsaw, lately when cutting, the cut will go a few inches into the wood then Thanks chain spins at full RPM without cutting…. Why? Thank you
Good stuff Steve. I've only got a little saw now I'm retired, firstly a Stihl 181,now I have an Echo 310 something. C310? I keep forgetting. I've finally come to realise that if I'm pushing it hard, cutting a 70 cm trunk with a 35 cm bar, the little saw isn't going to pump enough oil while the chain's buried in the middle of the trunk, getting hot. The pump malfunctioning on the Stihl, didn't help. So the chain's running dry and suddenly I find it's still running straight, still cutting well but it's sticking in the cut. Twice at least, to my cost, the chain and bar have looked NO different, and when I've let them cool down, and checked there's oil coming through, and it's still sharp - the thing still sticks, and I've had to replace both bar and chain to get it to work again. Any ideas? What am I missing? I'm not a newcomer to saws.
Steve and Sarah , not a bar question, but I have an older Stihl 039 , it starts fine I cut a while and the it revs high stalls out , starts right back up , cut a while again, same issue and keeps getting worse. I’ve changed gas line filter, tank vent and air filter. Any suggestions would be appreciated, thank you, love your channel.
Hey, another great video. I always fill my bar oil tank every time I fill up with gas, it only uses maybe 3/4 of a tank of oil to a tank of gas so I should never run out. The few times that I have run out, I could tell almost immediately that I wasn’t getting oil to the bar. Whether the tank ran out or the bar plugged up or whatever, I could tell right away so pay attention to the bar and what’s going on when you’re using a chainsaw. Thanks for sharing, keep them coming!
This is why if you ever run the blade down into the ground (cutting out a stump or roots) it always clogs the oil flow, drags the saw speed down, overheats the chain, then you see smoke and sparks coming from the chain and bar. I HATE when I have to remove the bar, clean out the soil and then have to resharpen the chain just for a few seconds of having to cut into the dirt or accidentally cutting into the ground! Sarah is a hoot with the zingers!
Hi Steve, love your videos! You've saved me many times! I have a Stihl MS180C that's not oiling. I've done what your video advises, but did not help. Do you have a video on replacing the oil pump & feeder hose? I tried looking, but couldn't find one. Should I be able to see the oil hose & filter inside the oil reservoir on this unit? Can't see it at all, so maybe it's kinked where it enters the saw underneath ??? Thanks in advance!!
Hi Steve Great video even without her inuendo. I have a CS 400 Echo that won't start! Compression is 115 psi. I have spark and a good plug. New air cleaner. Won't start even with fuel right in the spark plug hole. Ran the saw 6 weeks ago and it ran like a champ. Dumped the fuel and ran out the rest. Took the covers off before trying to start it two days ago and blew all the crap out of it first. Is it possible that the flywheel key has come out? Stumped.
Steve can I use summer bar oil in a Fort McMurray winter when I’m only cutting on finer days anyway? I find the oil is more viscous than the winter stuff I used last year so I’m thinking it’s probably better.
Another good video Steve and Sarah, but I noticed you didn't check to see if the nose sprocket was spinning freely. Perhaps you had already covered this in a previous video I haven't seen yet
top stuff Steve and Sarah and yep plugged oil port holes are one way to ruin a bar and chain for sure and yep luckily i don,t let my chainsaw get plugged in the hole.
Every time I start my chainsaw (and let it warm up) I run the chain while holding the tip near a log or the ground to make sure I see a string of oil. If I don’t see that then the bar and chain come off and I look for the problem. Love your videos BTW.
Hey Steve/Sara. I have a Stihl MS261C 18 inch. I followed your guidance on correcting no old on the bar. Just tried it out and still not getting any oil. Before I buy another bar, because this one is trash, what can I look for or do to get in oiling again. Thanks in advance for your help. PS; have a cold one on me for be dumbass in Pa. Enjoy your informative videos.
Hi Steve i run pole saws with 12 and 14 inch bars and i clean my bars and saw heads after each use and also flip the bars after cleaning great thing about long bar pole saws is you can reach into thorny shrubs and cut out small trees without getting poked.
@ Steven Chandler There used to be a Canadian comedy sketch show called "Bizarre" which was shown here in The UK too. This was in the early to mid 1980's and believe me what was said on there at times certainly would not have gone down well south of The 49th parallel I think!😮
And flip the bar when you put a new chain on or the chain comes off the sprocket. . The OREGON # 13616, Stens 700-807, Tecomec1017001 or china bar groove cleaner is a must. I wipe the bar down, take the tool point, rake the groove out and then clean the oil hole. Once done, I put like 1 tablespoon of bar oil on the bottom of the bar so it can run into the chain, then take the wrench and pull the chain about 2 cycles. This helps set the chain and now your ready to adjust. You can also run the saw med-high while pointing the tip of the bar towards paper and very the oil prior to cutting.
I use high pressure air to cleanout all the ports, (away from the bearing end of course), then I push a wire trough the ports and give the bar channel a look under bright light and a scrape if needed. I also built an ultrasonic cleaner long enough for a 36" inch bar.
Hi I need help I have 029 chainsaw I need a longer bar and chain this is my sprocket 1125. /. 08. C 325 z8 What numbers do I need to look for .?? thanks
i noticed on my 170 the chain was dry the last time i used the 170, but next time i have some off work definitely reopening them oil holes! might do a upload on it.
Hilarious! Steve's a lucky fella! Steve, could you do a vid on winterizing a Stihl chainsaw??? Saw the updated winterizing vid re the weedeater, and no problem re the pre-mix into the gas tank. But I'm not sure what to do regarding the chain oil. Saw one vid which said fill the tank to avoid "oxidation," but it didn't mention oxidation of what. Plus, if I fill the oil tank it's going to leak out of the chainsaw no matter how I position it. (Not sure if that's normal, or just my saw.) Anyway, very curious to hear what you think.
Love your show Steve! Lmao I've been cutting wood for many many years and didn't know there was a little hole in the bar. I though it just ran onto the bottom of the bar., thereby lubing the chain. Duuuuuhhhhh. Also Holy Smokes that's the lady from Prison Break! I loved that show! You should definitely have her on more.
what about the vent for the bar oil tank?? I have a 362 that will not oil for sheesh.. I've ports a bunch of times, I've pulled the pump out and checkout, and its all good.. I purchased the bigger pump from the 066 but.. It should work.. It gets a little out but never even close to as much as it needs... I am thinking the breather vent is clogged or maybe never been open..I can put some pressurized air on the cap port but I don't want to blow out the breaker vent either.. Your thoughts?
To clean my bar, I use an ordinary office Paper Clip. It is a stiff wire that can be bent out and it slides right down the channel of the bar where the chain goes and cleans out all of the oil-soaked saw dust.
Check the rails for evenness with a square, they are likely uneven, causing the chain to sit cock eyed, causing the cut to wonder left or right. You can get the rails ground but for the cost of a small bar throw it away. In my Timber Felling days I ran 48 inch Canon Bars. In the early 80's a bar was over $200 so it was worth it to get them trued at least once, sometimes twice and kept it for a spare. .
Thanks for all your expertise. Fun and informative. I have an old McCulloch 3215 chain saw whose oil tank has cracked and I would like to see if I can repair it. When I split the two halves of the saw, it exposes the top half of the oil tank. Does the flywheel have to be removed in order to get the tank out of it's position? Can it just be wiggled out of there? I don't want to create any more damage to the tank than already exists! 🙂

Certainly would not hurt!

As a chainsaw newbie thank you so much for your videos, they are a wealth of knowledge!
Very welcome
Ok, I have been destroying my bar and chain with neglect. Always good stuff here, every time, thanks Steve.
You're Welcome...
Excellent coworker! Excellent information and video! Thank you!
Our pleasure!
Sarah welcome back , Steve you gotta bring her back more 👍
I love Sarah she’s beautiful and brilliant as a person and actress
Right on
Great video! Don't forget to cover the "not so easy" repair of the actual oil pump and worm drive. Just did that on my Stihl 064 a few weeks ago.
Sarah got it going on with her knowledge of the bar and chain non oiling problem,s you go young lady 💐🌹
Love it!!
@@StevesSmallEngineSaloon yeah buddy 😂🤣🤪
Great humor. I hope you do more of these together. Thx

Right on Ron!
Nicely done. Love Sarah's jabs.
I agree!
Lube is very important!! She knows it.
Natural lube is the best. I'll stop there.
I had trouble with mine the day before this video came out and I was wondering if you made a video about this subject. Thanks again!

Thanks Steve,that was helpful to my problem,thanks to Sarah I will remember to keep plenty of lube on my bar and not all holes are the same size
Excellent!
Thanks so much for sharing, Steve & Sarah! Been using chain saws for 40+ years and never knew to clean the port hole on the bar.
Our pleasure!
Seriously? Used a chain saw for 40 years and no one ever taught you maintenance?

Lol my old echo has an adjustable oiler and I go through 2 tanks of oil to a tank of gas. She’s flowing.

Hello again Sarah, it’s been a long time😀🇦🇺
Hi Steve😀
Hello there!
How often should this be done, as in hours of use, or types of wood cut???
Thats awesome Steve! Great guest! :)
I think so too!
She is a riot. LOL great video.
I agree!
i noticed on my 170 the chain was dry the last time i used the 170, but next time i have some off work definitely reopening them oil holes! might do a upload on it.
Good stuff
Keep up this association. It makes for lots of funny moments. There's nothing like perfect lubrication, right?
Right on
You seem to be ignoring your beer in recent videos. Remember it's a saloon. Good video
Enjoyed the( hole )of that show thanks steve

Thanks for all your expertise. Fun and informative. I have an old McCulloch 3215 chain saw whose oil tank has cracked and I would like to see if I can repair it. When I split the two halves of the saw, it exposes the top half of the oil tank. Does the flywheel have to be removed in order to get the tank out of it's position? Can it just be wiggled out of there? I don't want to create any more damage to the tank than already exists! 🙂
That explains it thanks
You're welcome
I was wondering if I could use air pressure n try to remove the trash from the little hole on the bar.
I have a saw that is a chronic clogger! What causes that constant clogging??
Thanks!!!
Welcome!
