    Picked up new Kombi 130 - No Flippy cap

    I just bought a KM 130R for my brother with a Pole Saw, Extension and weedeater, it also has the screw in fuel cap, where as, my 5ish year old model has the flippy cap (no problems ever). That said, I put AV 100 LL with synthetic mix oil at 50:1 and started it up and it was running very rich...

    I don't particularly remember pointing out anything about how anything was run, but if the moderator points out that I'm more than welcome to pack up and move on, then I guess that is what I should do. I'm not the one thats unhappy, I actually have a lot of fun here, but I'm simply and...

    Using old gas to clean chains

    Would soaking them in 2 stroke/oil gas make them not rust? Sam

    In all honesty, I find this discussion about how to gently handle Sawtroll's lack of experience opinion a little weird. If a newbie came on here and said that he logs with a wildthing with a 28" bar, his monitor would catch on fire, as it is evident that that rookie has no experience with...

    Correct, but I've used those things that you have named. I've photographed and video'd myself and others using them, given examples and such. I've explained over and over why one product out produced the other product after using both products for a lengthy time, and I rarely speak about...

    Caution on wot out of wood on new strato"s

    Not sure what is either happening or you aren't figuring out. You push the switch all the way down/choke start the 441CM, should be two pulls if ran in the last week. It will start and run roughly .......... let it run for maybe 2-5 seconds and either pull the trigger firmly or flip the switch...

    I don't see where I have anymore problem with Niko than anyone else that has a problem with him. For the record, I don't make it a habit to talk about saws I've never seen or run personally, as I have little to nothing to contribute to those threads. I like the 441, I've also run one more than...

    I had never really been around a concrete saw, but then, I was eating at a restuarant that had construction next to it. Some poor concrete saw was being "used" to cut wire mess for the concrete. The guy that was "using" it, never sat it down like I would a saw or small child, LOL, he didn't...

    Some sawing, logging and skidding pics and videos ......

    Railroad ties and pallet lumber is the low grade. The higher grade logs will go for flooring and better lumber. In all of those logs, there is only 18 grade white oak butts and of those 6 are veneer, those are going to a difference buyer. Sam

    That he has seen/used? Very few. That WE never heard/seen? Very few. Sam

    Safety Equipment

    Sometimes is takes an injury, before you see the beauty of safety equipment. Glad that was all the damage that was caused. Sam

    The problem is he's rarely ever seen it and sure hasn't ever used it. Sam

    Some sawing, logging and skidding pics and videos ......

    Now things are really getting stacked up. This is from the cab. Getting higher..... I wouldn't stand too close to it, LOL. The two stacks to the right are grade logs and 16'/18' Mat Logs. The stack to the left is ties/blocking. Gets dark early, we all had fun. I forgot why I took this...

    Some sawing, logging and skidding pics and videos ......

    Thanks Andrew, we are trying to get caught up on a lot of work that didn't get done this summer due to other none wood related endeavors, but now we're back to logging and trying to get caught up. It got too wet at the bottom land job so that one still isn't done with more acreage under...

    New Saw Technology - Who Has It, Who Doesn't?

    The cross cut saw doesn't have much for moving parts, but there seems to be a lack of steady users. Sam

    461 break in ?

    And that is logical, but how much oil do you need to lubricate the bearings, piston, rings and cylinder? I have stopped my saws and taken the muffler's off and even ran a tuned one a little while without a muffler on it, and there was oil coated all over everything, and I have never wore out...

    MS261 Christmas Present

    I know my 13 year old boy doesn't like to buck up using the Muffler Modded 261 with 20" 3/8" bar/chain, now that we have the advanced and base gasketed removed and MM'd saw. You can bog it down, but your getting a little ham fisted to do it. Today he cut limbs and knots off of about 200 of...

    461 break in ?

    I cut at whatever throttle position gives me good cutting without just flogging the crap out of it. I don't just "floor" a saw engine, just because its a 2stroke. I don't see where there is any proviable facts as to why this is better for 2strokes, but is not per say, better for 4 strokes...

    MS261 Christmas Present

    LOL, I can one up you. I paid $450 for the same thing ..... but all of the same work, plus dual dogs and multiple chains and other goodies were thrown in. Sometimes the deals just hit you in the head and you have to go with the flow. You did good. What is the difference in cutting times...
