    What's the most impressive saw you've ever run?

    I will have say any and all of our 046Rs and 460Rs. I have not purchased any 461Rs as yet, but they seem to be out front from what all of you guys that are playing with them are saying. Safe cutting all

    on road diesel

    Hi all The diesel lab I use tells me to use an additive in any engine built before 2008 due to lube problems w/ low sulfur fuel. A lot of people are having pump failures due this problem. I buy Stanidine 55 gal. at a time and use 8 OZ. per 30 gal in all of my older engines and so far have not...

    Saw upgrade advice?

    MS460R will do the job and not take your back out cutting fire wood. This saw has the ability to oil and clear the chips with a 36 in. bar the few times that length bar is needed cutting fire wood and you can cut 8 to 10 hrs. verses 5 or 6 hrs. with a 660. Safe cutting

    MS250 or MS261

    Hi Punk The way I would look at this decision would be how many years I intend to be using the saw. If you intend or forsee cutting fire wood twenty years from now I would buy the MS261 Pro. In that time period there is a good chance you will be buying two MS250 where the 261 will still be...

    If you could have any saw NIB?

    Until I read this thread I didn,t know there was a saw other than a Ms 046R/ Ms460R / Ms461R. After reading this thread I would not want a NIB saw unless it was one of these three. Over the years I have owned every pro saw out there but these are the saws that made me profit. Safe cutting.

    What's the best all around saw for work?

    Work saw We use MS460Rs for work saws almost exclusivly. A work saw that preforms as they should shows on the bottom line as profit. The 460s have been more profitable for us than any other saw on the market.

    MS460 H.O. Oil Pump

    Hi All This problem can be avoided when buying a new Stihl pro saw if you buy the ( R model saw ), it comes with the HO oiler from the factory plus 3/4 wrap top handle / the large dual dogs / over sized clutch cover with roller chain catcher and extended chip deflector, well worth the extra...

    If I buy a 36 inch bar do I need skip chain

    Hi 066 Blaster Back to your question, the 066 will pull a 36 in. bar and chain in any configeration as long as it will oil acordingly and you keep the chain sharp. The high output oiler is the answer. We use 36 in. bars in large hardwood all the time using full chisel chain with great...

    Hi All Stihl answered this queation sometime ago when they brought the Ms046 / Ms460 out. They have the balance between HP and tourque where it needs to be for the hardwood industry, they answered this question with the best hardwood saw on the market. Safe cutting
