*Coming up on having had this saw for a year....am a casual user and bought it to cut up sections for bowl blanks. Easy to start, **Bestfor.Garden** also recommend even after storage for a couple of months. Simple chain tension adjustment. Just cut up some 20" Osage Orange, including ripping bolts in half (at an angle). Like butter!*
I have this exact chainsaw. We burn firewood for heat during the winter. It is a great saw. Light weight. Never not 1 problem with mine. It cuts line a champ and starts on the 2nd or 3rd pull cold every time.
Thanks for this - helpful. Just picked up the 14" bar version today having only used other peoples' saws before. Was having a bit of a time figuring out the choke as other videos will recommend you run at half instead of no choke. Great demo and helpful to see it done in its entirety.
I did just as you showed in the video, and the chain saw worked fine for a bit, but then the chain quit moving so I turned it off, noticed the chain had no oil on it and could see the chain showed heat marks on the chain. Checked the oil and it was still full. So now I have to check the chain off and see if the oiler is plugged or why it is not oiling the chain. This is right out of the box but must have been sitting for awhile as I noticed on the front of the motor, a small metal cover with rivets had small rust on them so I am wondering if Home depot sent me one that had been sitting for some time. Pissed yes, but I may find out what is going on. Not my first rodeo with a chain saw. Thanks good to know that it is an auto oiler as I was looking for a push button to keep it oiled.
You did not actually have the chain brake off when you started it, so the start was not correct. You really gotta push it towards the handle. If you see the orange thing on the right side of the chain brake it means the chain brake is on. Great video otherwise, I just think it is important to note...
I didn't explain that very well. The red fuel can contains one gallon of gas pre-mixed with two cycle engine oil. The oil shown in the video is specifically for lubricating the cutting chain as it passes around the bar.
Anthony, I'm not sure exactly what could be causing your problem. I am not a chainsaw mechanic but there are several videos by others which cover starting / running problems. Good luck!
Ryobi chain saws are usually running way too rich from the factory. You'll have to adjust your carburetor. You need a special screwdriver (pac-man) which you can order online. Lots of videos on UA-cam on the process of how to do it.
Do you not realize it’s probably never been started before fresh pistons just put gas in and it takes minute to get the gas in cylinder for spark to ignite it
Guess what? I run the Ryobi 3714 daily and run it hard. Felling, bucking and final cut for customer preferences. I push thus saw and it has not failed me nor has it shown ANY signs of doing so. Perform a thorough cleaning and chain sharpening after every use. Do your part and it WILL be there when you need it.

Perfectly demonstrated
Thanks! I have been having trouble starting mine. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the video!
I just picked this one up today. Gotta get it fueled and oiled in a little bit. Just wanted to check some videos out.
Lol same here 😂😁😂😁

if you mix the gas at 40:1 that means you will have a 40:1 chance of starting it thats why i mix mine at 32:1
Lmao no that they oil to gas ratio .

I just got me my very first one wish me luck
demaan 33
Good luck! I really like mine and it is going strong!
What if I use 40:1 mix. Will that cause any harm to my chainsaw?
how loose should the chair be on replacement
so do i have to mix the oil with gas before i put it in the tank or like it looks you did oil in one tank .just gas in the other one?
I didn't explain that very well. The red fuel can contains one gallon of gas pre-mixed with two cycle engine oil. The oil shown in the video is specifically for lubricating the cutting chain as it passes around the bar.
ok got it ,thanks
Nice
I have been struggling lol....
Can I change the blade length to 48inches? I got some thick logs to process.
This saw doesn't have the power for it. This motor only supports the 14 and 16 inch bar.
Safety first...put on gloves that will not allow chainsaw penetration.
You can start that thing in flip flops and it wouldn't bother me one bit
I’m sure he did all the starting points backwards hahaha
You should get the premix fuel from stores since they don't have the ethanol gas in them.
or just go to a gas station that doesn't have ethanol, they are everywhere
@@94SexyStang we used to have a couple but they stopped carrying it several years ago.
Where are his chaps and the chain brake is supposed to be on
The first few minutes of this video I thought it was some fucked up ryobi voice manual XD
I did exactly what you did but as soon as I press the handle it turns off.

If you think safety first where's your chaps?
Excellent point! I don't have any and I should as well as a hard hat.
Pos, brand new chainsaw doesn't start.

На тормозе Не заводи!!!
chain*
Me gusta me manda mamá de eso que no me gusta videos de motos me gusta me gusta por la campana también le doy también eso esos videos que
I bought 2 ryboi chain saws new. They're junk. I will never buy another one.
Where's the videos?
@@utseay No video. They're just junk. Don't buy ryobi
Ron Mills got one for a present. Plan on cutting 40-60 limbs like a boss. Too junk for that?
@@utseay yes it will work for that. I burn wood for the winter. Ryobi just don't hold up. Good luck with you new saw.
And why is that? You can't throw out a comment like that, without explaining what your issue is.
That chain is way to loose
@S C oh friggin rights. its saggin just like my grandma jeans tits.
contact no kya h.
No sirve esa motosiierra
chain is loose
So much small talk and so little action
this is simply a propaganda video.. this sorry excuse for a design of a machine is pure garbage....
Ryobi is a good brand
I think you need to look up the definition of the word "propaganda".
Why?
Guess what? I run the Ryobi 3714 daily and run it hard. Felling, bucking and final cut for customer preferences. I push thus saw and it has not failed me nor has it shown ANY signs of doing so.
