Alguien sabe que madera es esa?? Tengo uno tumbado(pero el mío es rojito creo) y quiero utilizar para paradero o pilar de casa de madera en zona tropical... aquí no utilizamos pinos sino madera muy dura para casas
@@KieranMullen when starting the fire both levers are pushed all the way in. Once a good fire is going I pull the one on right out almost all the way. I then use the center one to control the fire. The center one is usually most of the way out as well especially for overnight
While the Poulan 4200 clearly won it would be negligent to not point out the obvious inconsistencies of what’s happening with the two saws and operators. #1 The Stihl ms 400c doesn’t have a sharp chainsaw blade. #2 The man running the Stihl lacks proper posture as he is over extending his arms and body due to the particular placement of the log between him and the log he is cutting on. Also due to his over extension he lacks secure footing and isn’t able to work the dogs appropriately or efficiently. Another point of consideration would be the weight of these two saws. The Stihl weighs substantially less, translation less body fatigue. The Poulan 4200 doesn’t seem to be in production any longer. Nevertheless, you may find a used working saw for a reasonable price or within your budget parameters. Whatever saw you use always be mindful of best practices for operational safety and use personal protective equipment.
Have 2 1946 models. One that dad bought in the 60's that I use yearly, the other one dad and grandad bought new. That one is on deck for a restoration. Love these machines, if ya know how to operate them, awesome machine, if not, you will have your hands full and get a real workout!
I used a lot of different chainsaws. And stihl 400c with magnesium piston was faster then others i ever had. Sorry guys but i dont believe in this comparison.
@@pmHondaSzybszaNizWyglada sorry you didn’t believe it. If you have never run a ported and piped Echo 590 maybe you should. Thanks for watching anyway. I will say the 400 is a great saw.
Ive got a bad crank in my 262xp mahle. I cant find oem or after market (other than farmertech) for a new crank. Is a 257xp crank the same as a 262xp. I saw a decent aftermarket one for sale here in NZ?
@@llewmatthews4828 to my knowledge the crank is the same between the 257 and 262. I didn’t have to do anything to swap to a 262 cylinder. Hope you get it running. Thanks for watching. The 254 has a different crank even though the case is the same
@redtiller1975 thanks. I just found a second hand one online. Hard to fix these old saws up... I love my 262 it's a beast. I got a 365 special and 372xp too. All good saws
@@joeygordon4799 I wish I could make it. I sent some to Smitty for the breakfast and to be given away as a prize. He actually showed the syrup on one of his last videos
I just sat here for the past five minutes, repeating over and over “why in the hell hasn’t somebody already done this? This is crazy. It works so good. Why has no one done this before…?”
@@John-jh4yy originally 16:1 - 20:1 was recommended, but with today’s oils you could run 40:1. I use Echo Red Armor in all my saws. Vintage and modern.
I’m just worried about the mix I was using a home lite Xl 12 last fall and was using 32.1 mix. And was running great. I didn’t think I was running it too hard. But it just locked up on me. I’m wondering if there were other overlooked issues? I just don’t want that to happen. Again. Thanks for all your help. Though.
