    Put a wedge in the top of the log and you won't pinch the bar. Once you use a wedge , you'll never leave home without them.

    The 661 is a fantastic saw. Bought 2, a couple of years ago and then a 500i, about 10 months ago. (I'm a timber feller, so I use them full time) The 500i, although fantastic, has had a million problems where as the 661's have only had a decrease in power. (and I'm sure it's because of something that I did)
    I've also smashed one of them twice, with trees and it still works fine, although the wrap handle is a little bent.
    Getting ready to go buy another one today.

      The 462 is great but the 500 is nearly the same weight but with a lot more power and it’s hard to beat that fuel injected feature.

The suspension kit allows to run a 32 inch bar without being floppy .or 28 or 30 inch or Oregon. Anyone who doesn't do these mods all at once on your saws is missing out bigtime.its that much better .and keeps fined out of the engine and u can run them without covers if desired.

If you don't already .I wouldn't even run a stihl saw without them. That filter set up is 1000 times better .no comparison

    Good thing he wore ear protection. That way he can hear the doctor tell him he's gonna be blind from not wear eye protection!

    Joe, I can’t believe that you actually said “ he starts the saw like a girl” AND THENYOU WENT ON TO RIDICULE HIM BY HOW HE CUT THE LOG.
    Starting the saw with the method he used is the safest method for a guy operating a new to him saw. And he should not have been bullied.
