Yes sir, it comes in handy. I purchased it new in 2015. It’s a great little machine for getting into the woods and makeshift skidding logs out to a landing or picking small logs up and moving them around & piling up brush.
Hey man great video. When you put the clutch drum back on you dont need to worry about finding the arm just place the drum in the clutch and spin until you hear a click that means its in

A bit of common sense is required for what kind of saw to buy wether a knock off or commercial saw or professional saw. Anything can break but professional saw would give you highest probability of not breaking. I would only buy a professional saw because I’m out in bush miles from anywhere on snow machine and need the saw to work or my day is completely ruined. Time is money so if you will not lose much time buying a cheaper saw it might be right for you.
I just had to replace my chain tensioner on my neotech 872 as well. I’m starting to change my opinion about these saws. But I’ll hold off a bit longer before in saw something. Chintzy is definitely the word I’d use for the trigger and choke
Well, you know their first and third generation, right? So there's Gonna be a difference, one was a base model, and the other is a third generation After A lot of research and development....
@@thebustedwedge1141 True the more I read reviews named brand stuff not all are great. At least when you buy a Chinese clone you know what you're getting for the money.
I weighed the pros and cons. I bought a G660 and did as many upgrades as was practical before I started it up with OEM genuine STIHL parts, as well as, a High Output Oiler, Dual Port Muffler and Foam around the Air Cleaner for easy cleaning. I am all smiles so far.
Hi, both are great saws, but I think both are running lean on the high rpm under load (especially the holzfforma) they should 4 stroke without load, and run clean under load - then you'll be able to use their full power. Here's a great video regarding carburetor adjustment: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-2j9JyA49cv8.html
Please buy a helmet with eye pro those little widow makers that fell after the tree. If you get one to the head it may kill you we just lost a member of the logging team a couple weeks ago widow maker and he was a pro forgot not about chain saws then most of us could learn in 40 yrs
I like sharpening with a Dremel. I’m actually pretty good at that (unlike my hand sharpening abilities lol). The only issue with it (if there is one) is that the teeth harden because of the heat and don’t stay sharp as long. But it is my preferred method of sharpening.
For the price of these especially if your looking to get into tree trimming or logging you could get your over hand saw regular brush and small tree saw plus the big boy for them phat girls all at or under the price of one name brand not bad tbh
I have a farmertec g660 put the good big bore piston kit in it, with the large jet walbro carb from the Stihl, custom made dual port free flowing muffler, and the saw runs really really good. I like farmertec I have 3 of them. They make a nice Husqvarna clone that rips too... husky 272. Thank you
You need to grind your rakers back a little bit more. that stihl has the power to pull that and get rid of that damn Oregon bar that saw will never saw properly with that Oregon bar on it because it creates an oil flow issue
I do actually, not to try and make excuses but I’ve been very busy this year. I started a small business this spring and that has taken a large amount of my time. I plan to do a follow up review on the g660 & the g272. I’ve also got plans to do videos on a couple of other Holzfforma saws that I purchased. Sorry it’s taking me so long to deliver content. Thanks for watching.
(update) my hults660 with high flow oil pump on a 36" bar has been on my alaska mill for i year now. ive been using 32/1 and 90 oct non/ethanol fuel have not did any adjusting to the carb, changed the plug once. milled 1/2 dozen 80 ft pines into slabs so far, modified my recoil, i removed it, board a hole on center in the cover and start it with a 1 hp drill motor and a socket running off a tailgater generator works beautiful . my furry little paws just cant pull on that beast anymore. if you got an alaska mill put a small harbor freight winch on it with a pully at the aft end of the log, its a game changer!
