Sandy, I have the same model from 1988,1989. You are missing the most important part of the saw. A two point harness to balance out the weight on both shoulders. It will help with fatigue. I used to do acres and acres of pre-commercial thinning with mine. With the proper blade you can cut a 6” tree with one cut. Practice using different approach angles and areas of the blade to directionally fall the material away so you don’t have to walk through the slash. Your balsams will be shivering in their roots when they see you coming. Ron
That's great advice. Thanks for passing that along Ron. I've looked a little bit at those harnesses you mentioned. Think I may pick one up for next season. Thanks again
@@sawingwithsandy muffler screen plugs up as well, i used the stihl for yrs pre commercial thinning along with sharp blade, setting the teeth is essential should be able to find a setting tool in any brush saw dealership
Definitely recommend the harness. You can find them used by times. I’m new to a thinning saw, and ran one for 4 hours the other day. Using the harness, it was way less work than running my Stihl grass trimmer.
Thats pretty slick Sandy 50 bucks well spent. You know the old saying one mans trash another mans treasure, "thats a win in my book". Thanks for bringing us along. Have a good day.
I have a Husky 326 and when I clear trails I go twice as wide as what I need to allow for clearance when the snow bends the boughs over. Project Farm UA-cam did a brush blade test that was a good watch. Have fun in the woods!
great access to clearer trails specially the price you payed for and it does makes it easier for the snow mobile to haul your logs out later on when the snow is deep enough have a great day
"Over the river and through the woods to Sandy's trees we go, the man knows the way to drag the sled through the white and drifted snow". Merry Christmas!
this is the best time to work in the bush due to no bugs . I bought a Stihl TRI blade it works great and it is easy to sharpen with just a flat file .Good video.
Very useful tool. My Stihl is my go to for clearing trails . Game changer for me is replacing blade with carbide tipped circular blade of the same diameter, had to enlarge shaft bore to 1".Thanks for sharing.
Gordon here, I own one of these and they do WORK & WORK the operator into shape. LOL. Just wear your PPE = Protective Protection Equipment . Then at least you can work safely . I see you do and also wok with safety in mind also. I know work safe is something that I do , not try. For you live once . I know accidents do happen suddenly and they do damage also so stay safe. I know we should have some one watching so if something happens help is there.
I have a Stihl brush cutter. One thing I learned (not the hard way) after the first use was to wear steel toed boots and my chainsaw chaps. These things are amazing but as I use it I get tired. I use the harness that Stihl has but it stills tires you out. I guess safety 3rd and just being aware of what this does. How about a video on sharpening the blades on these? That would be very cool. Great videos. I am new to your channel and I enjoy it very much. I grew up in Upstate NY and we all called it eve troughs. Here is PA they call them gutters. It is nice to hear them called the right thing. That was from your video walk through on your cabin. Be safe and keep up the great work. 100,000 subs is just around the corner.
What I'm going to say might sound crazy, but I've been swinging a handlebar type brushcutter for many years. I've tried multiple types of blades, and in my opinion nothing comes close to a three sided blade.... great for saplings up to around 1.25" diameter, multiflora rose, and weeds/grass. Rev it up, and swing into the saplings and it will cut them right off. Mine is double sided, so when it gets dull you can flip it over and keep cutting. Sharpens on a bench grinder. I've been using the same blade on mine for over 15 years, and I'm not easy on it. One more thing, see if you can find another gearbox that the blade bolts onto.... I use An Echo brushcutter, and keep one gearbox setup with a brush blade, and the other with a string attachment typical of a curved shaft line trimmer... very quick to loosen the clamping bolts, slide off a gearbox, then slide on the other one... beats the heck outta taking it apart to switch back and forth, and gives you two tools in one! Love your videos!
Also available for those are 3 & 4 tooth metal brush blades that work good for briars and plastic blade heads for tall grass & weeds. My cutter is a little newer than yours, but still old!
Sandy, believe me the brush cutter will work you hard. Swinging it back and forth. It will do a very good job to clean your trails. You can used 7 inch skil saw blades on it. All my brush cutters has skil saw blades on them from harbor freight. I got some friends that have put 10 inch skil saw blades on there brush cutter and it works great. Be safe at all times. Have a great day be safe.
We run around a dozen husky brush cutters, mostly the old school 39r, 240r and 250r as they are super reliable. As others have said you must use a x back harness as it will ruin your back with the weigh on one side plus the twist your body does to push the disc in to material is not good for you!... also I would move the harness clip nearer the engine and push the handle bars forward this will stop you arching your back to get the high cuts. Final bit of advice is cut the the brush as low as you can as you will regret it when bring a quad or tractor through and cut spikes poke holes in your tyres!! Great video, and you cant go wrong with husky equipment. Not sure if anyone has said this in the comments above but you can cure the slow starter cord rewind just by re-tensioning the spring with an extra rap of the pull cord on the pulley, shout if you not sure how to do it. Jenna.
I have a Husquvarna brush cutter, really like it. I have found the double shoulder strap harness makes using the cutter much easier. Weight is distributed and I fatigue less rapidly. I put newly sharpened blade on for each use.
I used to thin for a living and had a Husky 265rx, as well as a 252 and a 555fx later. The 165 and 265 were tanks. Lots of torque for big hardwood and heavy as an anchor. Those snow covered conditions you're in were a write off to do it for a living. Way too easy to hit rocks. It's good that you aren't afraid of throttle. Way easier on the clutch. That saw is major overkill for what you're doing with it. It will cut whatever the blade can reach. If you get in bigger stuff make sure you get a set tool and put plenty of set in the blade. Filing to 25 degrees worked best as well. 9 inch Maxi style blades are best.
@@sawingwithsandy No problem. I do many of the same things as you do in your videos. I've been watching for awhile. Too bad we couldn't hang out sometime. You've inspired me to look at making my own channel at some point.
I'm convinced that you got a very good bargain on that brush cutter runs good and has lots of power and with a sharp blade can just imagine the things that could be done after watching it with the old blade. Great video and looks like you have lots to do so be safe and best of luck
You can buy the grease for the head comes in a tube and you screw the tube on to the head and squeeze it to fill it much easier than trying to put grease in that little hole. I have to brush cutters one is a stilh and a dolmer. I would get yourself harness that goes over both shoulders much easier on the back and the neck. when I was younger I ran a similar Husqvarna to the one you have very nice machine. Be careful when cutting if you hit something loose they have a tendency to throw it back and hit you in the shin and it hurts. Try not to swing it back and forth so fast take your time stay safe and above all have fun.
Well I have to say, you are one energetic guy. I bought myself a hydraulic brush cutter attachment for the skid steer, it goes to soft areas like that, it cuts through those 5” trees like hot knife through butter all from the comfort of a heated cab, but hey your getting you exercise. Nice find for $50.
Sandy if you need blades and stuff for it I would look on Amazon I ordered some they have all kind carbide and regular that you can sharpen with a round file you can get 2 blades or more for the price of one at a dealer I shoped for some this spring in Sudbury and much cheaper on Amazon
I like people giving second life to stuff. This Husq will pay you back with lots and lots of fun working time. You have a rear power these days, bring things back to life. That's a good video.
Hello Sandy, from what I heard on the video you might consider removing the saw head and lubing your shaft with Lithium grease, that will quiet down some of the squeaking noise, just a suggestion.
Sandy!!! What in the wide world of sports are you doing? Did you happen to watch a rerun of "Predator" and are trying to one up Jesse the Body Ventura with the minigun vs the woods? Well sir, you did and quite well I might add. That thing is definitely a zombie weapon of death. I now know what I want for Christmas! Excellent video as usual and Thanx for sharing the new "Beast of Burden"!. I noticed again also there was No Sludge!!!! What the heck you madman? LOL. Take care!
Our 18 acres of land was never maintained or logged or anything. I can use my Efco brush cutter for hours and still have saplings to take care of lol its amazing how fast the saplings can take over!
You picked a heck of a time to do some brush cutting. Mowing the lawn next ?? Glad that machine work for ya though and it sure does a number on those saplings
What an addicting tool! It's one of those tools that make your arms and back ache but yet your like "I'll just do one more little section " and when you're done, your like "okay one more section". I'll call it constructive destruction syndrome. My wife wanted me suggest that you look into a double shoulder harness for that beast instead of a single strap. She said it was a game changer for her back and well worth the $. Bet you slept well after that. Great job, take care and happy sledding! ☃️
I know what ya mean. I could go all day with this brush cutter if my body would let me haha. Those double harnesses are going to have to be on the to-buy list for sure!
URGENT!! i Love watching your videos. i do own a older stihl brush saw. almost like the one that you own. thought that you would Realy want to know about this. i use white lithium grease in the head part were the saw blade is attached to the shaft. i learned the hard way. No grease in head means burned out parts. Thank You for all that you do!! :)
Hi Sandy, that is a bad machine. Did you ever turn the blade in a vertical position for the tree limbs? I have seen blades that can be attached to a string trimmer if you have one. Have good days!
I haven't given that a try as I wasn't aware that they could turn. I"ll be sure to give it a go. Would be very helpful for trimming the branches back. Thanks for watching!
I've got to laugh because I was doing the same thing today. I use old 10 inch carbide bench saw blades. They are heavy and a little hard on the engine but you don't have to worry about pounding them. Just rev the engine to max and slam the blade against some pretty thick brush.
Hey Sandy that machine sure is a beast I have one it is a newer model I think it is a 125R, I see that you can get a blade that has chainsaw teeth on it some companies are banning them for grinders, but they should be ok for brush saws. I see you have some of that white stuff we are supposed to get 25-35 cm tomorrow, thanks for the video. All the best.
Thanks for watching Wayne. Yeah all kinds of cutter heads now that you mention it. Gives me ideas on waht I can get done now with it. We're getting a good dump of snow as we speak as well.
I've replaced my blade to one that has chainsaw teeth on it. It's by far the best type of blade that I've used. I forget what brand it is but it came from my local stihl dealer
What a score! I was looking all summer to find one and ended up buying new. As others have said regarding the shoulder harness it will help with fatigue as well as adjusting your handlebars so they are perpendicular to the saw shaft. They are wicked for trails and for $50, best bang for your buck! Great editing by the way. Sure none of us take it for granted. Thank you! On a side note, curious why all forest plantations seem to be red pine in Ontario? They're all over here. Kyle
Thanks for watching Kyle. I'll be sure to look into those harnesses. I'm certainly no athlete so I can use all the help I can get. The red pine grow relatively quickly and straight as an arrow in alot of sandy-type soil so I'd imagine that it provides good return if the red pine plantation gets sold for money.
I noticed that your blade started to run when you start the engine. It should not run when idling, very dangerous. You need to put new clutch in it. Not a big deal. And blades.....I start to use hard metal tipped blades. Very good, but expensive. When a normal blade needs sharpening couple times in day, hard metal tipped go easily 3 weeks with no any sharpening.....but then you need diamond sharpening thing. And do not use up-and-down movement. Just cut tree of.

Hi Sandy, I have the same machine too, if you look for an harnest, I suggest you the sthil , it is better than the husky model, more confortable.
Definitely recommend the harness. You can find them used by times. I’m new to a thinning saw, and ran one for 4 hours the other day. Using the harness, it was way less work than running my Stihl grass trimmer.
I could not agree more about the harness. I upgraded mine to an even more padded version (still made by Husqvarna) could use it all day everyday.
Thats pretty slick Sandy 50 bucks well spent. You know the old saying one mans trash another mans treasure, "thats a win in my book". Thanks for bringing us along. Have a good day.

Think you will have good trails an lots of Charlie Brown Christmas trees, lol. Keep the vids coming thanks
Think you're right Bryan. Thanks for watching
That is an awesome tool for trail maintenance mate ! Thanks for the video !!!!!-
Glad you liked it David

Santa needs a runway that's for sure. Yeah I'm with ya on the beauty of winter in the woods
Sandy listen to the advice in the blow comment. The harness makes all the difference. Its a game changer. Cheers mate
That is an good machine, good find.
Wow! Was that a Cabela’s sled? I have the same one and use it for the same purpose!
Must be an Ontario thing. 😆
I hook a dog to the sled. Keeps the pup happy and I’m not winded when I start working.

Hi Sandy, Thanks for all the useful information. I recently purchased a Woodland Mills sawmill. I have a question - do you live or work in Yukon?
I'm convinced that you got a very good bargain on that brush cutter runs good and has lots of power and with a sharp blade can just imagine the things that could be done after watching it with the old blade. Great video and looks like you have lots to do so be safe and best of luck
I"m happy with the purchase. I"ll get it sharpened up here right soon for next time around.
Sandy, you kind of reminded me of Ricky at moments !!!!
Cool..nice job..seems to work real good Sandy...
Thanks Don! Sure does the trick

@@sawingwithsandy It is! Its like a mini fella buncher lol
Hey Sandy,
All I can say is Sharpen or Replace your BLADE.
A Sharp blade on ALL tools, is always Safer. (and produces better results)
Cheers
Very true. Thanks for watching Colin
I wonder if the blade on that can be rotated to be vertical. If so, that may help for all the sides of the trails. Just a thought.
That’s an interesting idea. I’m not too sure
Wow! That exhaust has a baritone sound to it! Seems to be less obnoxious that most brush cutters.
I don’t have anything to compare it to but I agree it is a low tone
Lover the scenery. just saying
Thanks Wallace! Sure is nice this time of year.
You picked a heck of a time to do some brush cutting. Mowing the lawn next ?? Glad that machine work for ya though and it sure does a number on those saplings
Absolutely! Worked well for sure
cool new toy. Ya it looks like a lot of exercise running it, but it sure seems to do the job
Works well for sure

Hey Sandy, what kind of sled is that and did you get it? I would like to get one like that. Love the channel.
It’s a pelican sleigh. It’s the smaller size they sell here at Canadian Tire
It looks very good idea for getting gear through the woods rather than carrying all of it. I'll be stealing that idea.
