Yeah, what the hell does uber mean?

Ultimate
Better than all
Above the rest

Cool as hell
gnarly

just a few ways to describe the all encompassing word: UBER.
My favorite context of uber is usually following the pretext to the word cool
example: that was uber cool

here are a few posts where I used uber. You can check them out for further details on its usage

Haha damn I missed some of the good stuff. I also dont understand why centaur did not reply to my thread about which saw too choose if he hates the 361 so much. Immature of him to come in and and talk crap about a saw that someone just bought sounds like he is jealous to me. Maybe he has cancer and cant afford the cure?

Congrats on the new saw. The good thing is that saw has great resale value so if you don't like it or don't need it anymore then you'll recoup most of your investment. From what I have read, it's a good saw and I think you will be happy with it. Enjoy and stay safe. :chainsaw:

I take it you don’t own any other chainsaws. The first day on the job, my 361 earned the nickname “Miss Daisy”. It truly is a saw even you grandmother will enjoy using. Forgive me, but I must ask; how does it idle and can you restart it without flooding it??

Idles fine only started it once. It flooded before I got it started tho but should be fine from now on. Im coming from using a homelite and an old remington also so this is a very nice saw for me. ^ I dont do this for a living im just a home owner with alot of trees that need cut up.


No more than tree (maybe four) pulls on choke please, before you try "fast idle" (one notch up on the switch).......
The faintest sign that the saw wants to start should be counted as a "pop" - by all means don't trust the deco valve to tell you, by closing.

When the saw is warm, try at "on" (not fast idle) to restart it - usually starts at first pull.

the 361 is a very nice saw.

i'm still not crazy about their fuel caps but i will get over it.they d run good and the price is right if you shop around.i love the 357xp but Husky is nuts on their pricing for it.

372xp will be my next saw thats the cream of the crop Husky I heard. Or the Jonsered 2171 I love the look of the red/black.

If you really like that 361, the 441 is his bigger brother. I run 440s and 460s but that 441 has earned it's keep. The 372 and 2171 are great saws also. If you plan on a future woods port, check out the 440/460/372/2171.

Every other saw sold today needs a muffler mod & mix adjustment to wake it up.

But Don, it will cost JJ at least another $150 to make his 361 a "pro" saw.:monkey:

I'll help him out though, when JJ is ready to open the muffler up, if he will send me the muffler and $15, I will add the Lake port to it.:DThat's a little cheaper I believe.:D
