You are correct about not tight. My MS251 single bolt design stripped out right as the warrenty expired. If I ever get it back from the shop, I'll not tighten very much. It was a cutting beast while operational. I see your MS311 has two bolts for chain tightening. Looks like a real winner there on that one.

One thing about the stihl chains. The bar guide teeth have small dimples in them . I think this is a stihl patient item. The small dimples , hold just a little bit of bar oil, help keep the bar and chain cool and lubed . Extends the life of both bar and chain. A little tip a stihl service guy taught me. Always under fill the fuel tank just a little less than the bar tank. So you run out of fuel before you run out of bar oil. Also when your bar oilier is adjusted correctly , you should run out of fuel and oil at the same volume rate per running hour. If you always have to way much bar oil left when refueling the fuel tank. Your saw bar is not getting enough oil , adjust it accordingly. Every now and then test that your chain after refueling to make sure your bar is getting oil. Point the tip toward a log round and make sure you are getting a slight sling of oil coming off the teeth . Easy for the oilier channel to get clogged by thick bark or dull chain teeth causing ( small chip dust) . Also the inner chain guard , held by the two bar nuts . This another great place for a spay coat or two of MODECK not stick spray . Yes same as the mower deck under body. Give it a try , see the difference :) hope these tips help. Safe cutting , going to be a rough winter I think ?

I think if you are running out of bar oil you are perhaps not using proper chain oil. The saws are designed for the bar oil to out last the gasoline. In 40 years of operating mostly stihl chain saws I have never had the bar run out of oil.

Just got the 311 to compliment my 271. It definitely makes short work of larger downed trees, which is why I purchased it, very pleased. I did fine tune carb setting after first use, she runs crisp and starts great now. I can run the 271 all day, the 311 your gonna feel after a few hrs but it goes thru the wood much faster.

@darrellpickering8535 3 года назад
Do yourself a favor, have your dealer check the rpms on your saw. Using a skip-tooth chain will speed up the rpms on your saw especially when dull. A lot of people won't stop cutting when they're getting sawdust instead of chips.

On storm damage, if you cut the brush & branches first & the trunk/stump/logs later, then you can start/get stuck in without warming up the chainsaw. If you have to fell/fall the tree first, then warming up before revving up, is a good practice.

The 2 bar nuts that you said to only lightly tighten should actually be FIRMLY tightened, you will not hurt the bar by firmly tightening them. Loosley tightening them will only ensure that your chain tension will always need adjusting. ( refer to page 29 of your owners manual if you doubt what i say)

Stihl saws (and string trimmers) keep better compression due to the fact that they have 2 piston rings. Most 2-cycles have a single piston ring and lose compression or have low compression. Larger Stihl saws have a compression release valve on the block because you can't pull the starter rope without releasing the pressure. That's why once it's started, don't choke it. You'll flood it. Used to service saws and string trimmers, once you see how they're made... you'll buy a Stihl.
@kevinriffey9970

Have you ever seen echo SX series saws/brushcutters in your "repair shop"? I bet you havent, those things never fail to amaze me. I used to be a huge fan of stihl, I still am because they are easy and cheap to fix. But I am definitely certain about the echo being way better than stihl. Double piston rings is very common in pro saws. "Low compression" and bullshit like that gets me every time, theres absolutely no point of having more than 9 bars of compression unless you use high octane fuels 98 10% ethanol or higher. Wouldnt even think of plastic stihl, those are complete junk.

Good point about having more than one saw. Everyone gets their saw pinched from time to time. It's funny how many people get hung up on certain brands of saws. It's more important to get the right saw for the job, and maintain it properly. I always recommend purchasing the professional grade saws. For that size Stihl, the 261 with a 20" bar would be a good choice.

Both were stolen and so I started the replacement process. I bought a Stihl 251as a replacement for the small saw. I hate that saw just for the starting issues it always seems to have since first month of ownership. For bigger stuff I got a Makita/Dolmar 6421. That one is a beast.

Hi guys, I'me an avid watcher of Stihl Reviews and Videos, I personally have 2, an MS461 & an MS880, with an eray of Bars, mainly a 25" for the 461 and from a 32 up to a 48 for the 880. Cutting some big Redum and various hardwoods, with both of these saws being in the "Magnum" range they are just outstanding. I give them every opportunity with freshly sharpened Stihl Full Chisel chains. It's just coming into summer here in Australia now and after seeing a nasty brown snake last week, I have packed up until next season. Keep up the good work everyone and stay safe.

I have the 250 with a 24” bar and 7 tooth sprocket conversion. Best of both worlds, light saw cutting larger wood.

Been running Stihl saws for many years. Tried one Husqvarna; commercial saw; blew up and had it rebuilt; almost as much as the cost of a new saw. Blew up/locked up again. Bought another Stihl to replace it. Excellent saws.

I own your 311’s big brother, the 391, and I love it. The 391 is a little heavy but it will fly through big wood.

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer At the moment running MS230 2kW/2,7hp (when was new) it's from 2005. It's pretty worn out. We used it to fall trees bigger than 1m in diameter. It was very difficult task since the guide bar is just 40cm. And teeth are picco which means one of the smallest. It's pretty beaten up. I wanna surprise my dad. You can't even compare MS311 with MS230. We need it to fall trees and make ourselves some firewood... 60cc engine with 4,2hp and longer bar. Stock comes with 40cm I'll probably run 50cm or 55cm I won't go to extremes because it's easier to engine and I really don't need longer bar.

@@StoneyRidgeFarmer And besides all of that I NEVER use Stihl oil. Only mix I make is premium gaaoline with 2%of Castrol POWER1 RACING 2T!! Oil for racing engines. No smoke at all, ultimative protection and sparkplug is as clean as you run straight gasoline. It's grey.

Im a mechanic and i see on most of the contractors trucks that come in to the shop. Most have either Stihl or Husqvarna. They seem to be the popular brands. The builders buy stihl battery chainsaws. They last a long time before they need charging and are great for making wooden decks and framing and they run a narrow chain. they aren't toys. they are made to work. From memory they have a 14 or 16 inch bar.

I’m a STIHL guy been one for ever. I have 4 of em. From the MS250 to the 660 MAG. Which is my “go to saw.” May I suggest a Full chisel full skip chain. Cuts much faster and half as many teeth to sharpen. With my 660 my chain will pull a 2.5” chip. Awesome power and cut. Nice video
