Ever had something that you wished worked better? Me too. When I find a good fix for something that I'd like to share, or a good product or build combination that I'd like to share I put it here. I usually post when I'm making a video for a friend to see. I also post video's I find interesting.
My content includes: Chainsaws, tree work and felling; all kinds of tools--using and fixing them; Auto Mechanics; Motorcycle upgrades, gear, and mechanics, R/C Airplanes: building, flying and configuring; and various other videos.
This channel is mostly "How To" videos of good content and mediocre recording quality... I'm working on using a better camera. I do not post professionally or for any profit. I post to HELP others create something, do something to save money, or modify something to make it work better.
I invent, create and get my hands into all kinds of things. If you would like to see a video on something let me know!
I’ve had several of these saws, still kinda have one left. It’s a new XS440 hybrid. I did a bit of jet testing on this saw and never really saw any difference maybe a tad more grunt but the saw was built for torque to pull longer bars
Hey! How do you find the new ones? I've had these for 2 years and now I'm also getting battery issues. It shows 5% regardless on one, and it works. But sometimes during night it stops after 4h. Gotta charge it 5 min, and then it works for another 4 hours 🤷🏻♂️ I NEED these or else I'm constantly being woken by any sound. Light sleeping 😭 A shame these got discontinued as I heard the new ones are not nearly as good since they only us ANC.
Awesome video. Just picked up a beaten down 460 magnum with bad piston for 40 dollars. Oh and i plan on doing some mods baby! From west coast 4 point felling dogs, max flow hi flow air filter and cover, the 76 jet that you mentioned and the west coast bark box…….and a new paint job and i think that’s about it. Thanks for the good intel!
I won't be as kind. This idiot dropped a tree on the house. He's fired doesn't get paid and is sued for damages. A restraining order will be issued. That's right period... Jim BCC AZ
Dull saw, dull brain. I can't believe that guy walked up there and started tugging on the tree like "Nope she's stuck solid bud giver her some more" Thank god for hard hats.
That was a nice explanation of the differences man. Appreciate it. I just rebuilt an MS460 and slapped a Hyway dual port muffler on there. The stock muffler cover was a bit rusty and dented so I figured why not. Still have to tune the carb a little. I think I'm a little rich on the H side.
I'm going to do another video with the max flow filter and the .76 high-speed jet. so far of all the modifications the max flow filter has given the most performance. the. 76 with the maxflo should be amazing. some guys are running these saws at about fourteen thousand RPMs ( Jon's Customs Saws). the manual says 13 500, and I find a when saws run to lean-that is any saw-they tend to bog down sooner. I will be playing with the RPMs a bit in the next video. I'll do a comparison and see what cuts better.
@@Tips.and.Tricks I have an aftermarket "HD" air filter. It uses the foam insert instead of the plastic clip on spacer but the air filter element itself seems just like OEM...So it's not quite the Max Flow filter.....I'm not exactly interested in maxxing it out atm - I just want a nice, reliable, powerful saw to handle the bigger wood. And like Buckin' says.....to be able to stand up and buck! Looking forward to seeing your video though.
It's better to be rich than lean because the saw will have power when you lean into it and not stall out when you're cutting. If you still have the limiters on the carburetor don't be worried about adjusting it too much. It will keep you within acceptable limits.
@@ProteusDIY also I would like to add that the performance of the saw increased the most and operated more efficiently, and cooler with the changing of the air filter to the max flow more than anything else. That said I operated it for years with the regular HD filter just fine.
I can't understand the STUPIDITY of these amateur loggers. USE A ROPE SO AS TO GUIDE THE TREE 🌲 or The BRANCHES TO FALL AWAY FROM PEOPLE & TOWARDS A SAFE DIRECTION YOU WANT IT TO FALL!!!
