Randy nuts plz get out of this thread... no one want to hear about what you think.... you're a little nuts but huh, you're the king! No one want to ear your s*hit. I actually learn a lot of good information in this thread regarding lef handed chainsaw uses and i also apreciate the comments of the lefty users.... as mentionned before, i think the only way to get my problem fixed is to use my saw with right hand on the trigger... Never had any problem with my 026 but now, i do.
 
I hear you saying that the saw you got is making the problem. If you really have been cutting left handed since age 10 and have just now decided its a problem with this saw and hasn't been before... then..
I would not hesitate to get a different saw. You can't work when you are dead, so it would make sense in my book.

Since ten years... not age 10. i never hit my pants before but this situation made me thing i have a problem because i do understand the blade is really close to my thin when i end a cut so theres something to do to resolve my problem...So bad nobody told me to operate my chainsaw right handed before :(

l4ff, as hard as it is at times weed thu Randy's comments and heed the message. He's seen and done more in the the BIG timber than most of us can dream of. He's just grumpy at times. Ken
 
l4ff, don't miss the point that running a saw left handed puts more at risk than just your leg. Think about the posts and lay off the insults. You completely missed the point of Chucker's comment. And if you really want to learn something then don't be so quick to dismiss RandyMac's comments just because you don't like him or what he says.

You would think that there are enough left-handed folks that at least one manufacturer would produce a LH model. They might just be afraid that a right-hander will pick one up, get hurt and sue - as my left-handed daughter likes to tell me - left-handed folks on average are smarter than right-handed folks.

LMAO!!! take up knitting or adapt. I was born lefthanded, using a chainsaw the "right" wasn't that tough.
I'm left handed but $hit there's no way I would cut timber like I do with my left hand period!!! That's the most craziest ass backwards thing I've heard of!! You wantig to get cut an or lose a damn limb
 
l4ff you got some nerve new guy..........several of us including Randy gave you good advice.........listen or don't but show some respect and stay out of any squable between long time members.

I was just looking for some recommendations from lefty chainsaw users, not for getting bashed by some guys wich are not lefty apparently.
 
I cut left handed all the time out of necessity and its not with some 50cc hedge clipper! Can't get a good angle on a buck in the slash or a couple of trees growing tight together and I can only get set up to fall left handed. Its really not that hard just keep the sharp part away from yer body. When you said BLADE I knew what was up.

Randys got nuts of steel by the way. Not the first time they have been mentioned in conversation.
 
I am left handed and have always cut the 'correct' way ie. right hand on the trigger. You just have to. However, I don't really agree that this is 'right handed'. I always think of a chainsaw as a left handed tool as you are holding the main weight of it with your left hand. It's not as if you need any more co-ordination in your right hand just to squeeze the trigger.

... Gonna nick your nuts...
 
every day that passes, my relevancy fades, like an obsolete machine left in the ferns, rust grows through the worn yellow paint.

********. What you know and what you've passed on to others...including me... will live on forever in the memory and the actions of those smart enough to recognize something of true worth.. Screw the ankle-biters...they couldn't make scale on the best day they ever had.
I'd work with you any time. The ankle biters....not ever.

Hey, "somebody" helped put together a really nice...and I mean REALLY NICE... 850 and it was given to me at the NorCal GTG. You wouldn't have any idea who was behind that whole cloak and dagger scheme would you? Somebody that used to run around the Mattole country leaving big marks and various stumps maybe?
