You want a 60 inch stihl bar . I sold my tree company last week and have a few brand new ones still in box. Stihl doesnt make these bars anymore. Love your content.
Appreciate you showing the struggle! There's definitely ways to do it by yourself - One trick is to whip a bar nut on the stud loosely so it holds the uncovered bar while you tighten the chain. Then remove and proceed to gingerly put the side cover on (the chain tension at this point will help hold it all together). Also, I always tighten the large milling chains a bit more because they expand quite a bit, (especially if they are brand new). That and they get hotter for longer periods which tends to make them all loosey goosey after the first cut or so. Cheers!
I've found that using tape or rubber bands to hold the chain to the bar while installing the bar to the chainsaw works very well. No matter what size bar you are using.
how can this little woman pack so much power and strength into her little body, she is adorable kinda scary no its impressive sorry yes impressive I'm subscribing this woman is strong lol
Jenna, that bar and chain is supposed to be a handful, just because of a it’s size. It’s like moving around a vehicle with no engine running and you’re only doing it with muscle power!
When you pull up the chain the tips of the drivers should be at the top of the bar rail. That is the rule of thumb I use for chain tightness. If you lay your chainsaw on its side it’s easier to mount the chain on a long bar.
I say this is fun, tongue in cheek, so please let it be fun. If you're going to unloosen something you in reality are tightening it. To loosen means to bring slack into the situation. So, if we un-loosen something we take the loosen out, we un- it...unloosen. To undo some thing is the opposite of our original action. Tighten, original action; loosen, opposite action. So, if we Unloosen we tightening it. My grandfather taught me a lot about the words that we use, most often misuse. Not being critical at all. Just being amused by how unaware we are of our words.
@@chainsawjenna maybe you have a hive near you! Usually they don't go very far and just bring out the dead bees, go to the bathroom and some basic foraging. They'll look for water, sap and things like corn dust
I would love somebody to do a comparison video with the same chainsaw. Same bar, but do a full comp. Chain, a semi skip and A. Full skip just to see if there's any difference in cut time.
I’m laughing because I know the pain, I treat them like I do a regular bar and chain it’s just a bit more awkward. I also just throw something under the front and just work it on with the chain super loose and put the clutch cover on and then fully tighten the chain tensioner. After watching this I kinda wanna see you fight with a double ended 72in bar with twin 2100s with outside chain tensioners 😂. When it comes to tightness I hold the saw up by the pistol grip and tighten it till the chain just touches the bar rails. And with a saw that big I like holding it by the pistol grip with the tip on a log to start. But great video and you’ll get used to putting that saw together ❤
HOLY SAW!!! I can't imagine dealing with that hahahaha provs to you for dealing with beasts like this. lol I just got this for milling purposes. I'm really just a carver girl, not a logger or anything like that. I also really just like chainsaw :D
Watch out, your side cover is missing the rubber chip deflector. The moment the chain jumps it will eat through the magnesium cover and cut into the fuel tank!
hallo jenna, here in germany the right bar is not bigger than the cc; that means.. a saw with zylinder 70cc has maximum a bar with 70cm (28 inch), most professionals do not run their saw with a bar bigger than 50cm (20inch). With such a 20 inch bar you can cut a tree up to 1 meter diametre. greetings and blessings from germany
I think it's the 881 which is more than 70 cc. It's more than 120 cc, the biggest in the world. Only power women can handle it like Jenna. Greetings from Finland.
With a new chain you want it pretty tight for the first few minutes because it will stretch a lot . I have help when I install my 60" bar, so much easier. Ron USCG RET
Yeah actually super important to maintain a high tolerance of cleanliness on the “bar mount plates” otherwise oil pressure could be dramaticlly lowered, bar n chain start burning up, more friction, more heat, more wear. whole saw life is degraded
@@chainsawjennaseems like you’re having trouble how to put the big bar in your chainsaw so funny 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Einstein said the dayvwe stop learning is the day we start dying. Try having the sprocket facing you & hold the bar halfway you had it at about the 3:30min mark. Also a squeeze sauce bottle with canola oil, run a bead of oil along the channel so the chain is sitting in some oil not a dry channel. No gloves, learn to use both hands & yes your feet as well 😂 when you blow the air filter blow it from the inside outwards, but check the air doesn’t have a oily residue as air compressors need to be drained. Have seen this a number of times in old air compressors.
As an old logger you want me to SHARPEN THE CHAIN RIGHT ? Hey 👋 that coyotes just shoot it same on our game animals like 👍 rabbits 🐇. You do beautiful wooden carving and cute and funny . Remember THINK 🤔 SAFETY and always put SAFETY FIRST around chainsaw . STICK on the ICE 🧊,SAW in the WOOD 🪵 and RUBBER on the road .
