So I recently bought a new Stihl saw and read the manual cover to cover like a good new owner (yes, I'm noob, see my other post "I seek your wisdom" if you're interested), and in the manual in numerous places they say to "clean the chain." Uh, how exactly?....and with what? Do you all clean your chains? How often?
My first thought was, how the hell am I gonna get all the crap that accumulates on it... off of it...and do I really have to? My first guess was some solvent, a rag, and a wire-bristled toothbrush? However, that sounds like a royal pain in the ass.
Turns out that if you google it, some sites say to soak it in an ammonia solution?
What do you pro's do?
Thanks for reading.
