Technical Tips- How To use a Chain Rivet Tool and a Chain Breaker Tool 

Lmao same bro. Best comment I've saw in a while 😂

I haven't seen that, but i was thinking that it should be greased to prevent twisting of the rivet.

I don't think that was for the rivet but for the spinner tool.

Yes that would be fine, just pop the rivets out and keep the drive link number you need.

Watch the end of the video

@Maciej Jan Długosz His comment is most likely a Liability Disclaimer and Lawsuit prevention ploy. It also helps sell more merchandise.

maybe you should leave Europe and go back to africa then

And this is why no young people want to work in forestry now.

@Maciej_Jan_Dlugosz How can you reuse rivets?

There is a special part of the chainsaw that catches chains that break a link if your leg doesn't first. Why risk life & limb on a $1 part like a new joining link?

@Maciej_Jan_Dlugosz It's about being a fool & tightarse. No sensible person re-uses rivets after they have been bent & punched out of a chain. You can.

@Maciej_Jan_Dlugosz Studied books eh, You are an educated idiot then if you don't understand that you lose a the portion of the mushroomed pin when you push them out as well as bending the link. What you don't know, you don't know and are too silly to learn from industry professionals who obviously know alot more than you.

@jem fly, although your comment is a couple years old, it requires an opposing response. I'm not sure which video you watched, but the video I watched (this video) provided me (a novice) with exactly the information I needed to do the job - start to finish (read here: I SAW every detail you thought was missing). It demonstrated: proper technique, cross checks while exectuting, and final inspection after completion. Additionally, it provided best practices throughout the process including addressing parts reusage. I would suggest that people who cannot perform the tasks demonstrated in this video with no other guidance simply should not ever use a chainsaw; and therefore, the work demonstrated in this video would/should have no relevance...

@Maciej Jan Długosz Oh stop, if you're unable to compare your work to the adjacent manufacturers installed rivets and recognize when something doesn't look right and should be redone, you should probably stay away from tools and mechanical things in general. This isn't rocket science...

@Maciej Jan Długosz Nevertheless, none of what you said replaces a close visual inspection of your work to verify you got it right. More importantly, while you can reuse rivets why would you when they're dirt cheap? That doesn't make sense for a number of reasons not the least of which most all manufactures tell you to use new rivets. And to your point about "some chains have TOO HARD rivets," that isn't the case with Oregon chains or most chains for that matter. Put another way, the exception never defines the rule. Of course you must always control what you're doing - basic mechanical skills gives you that. This video wasn't intended as an "A to Z" howto covering every possible scenario in chain make up, so why critique as though it were...?

@Maciej Jan Długosz BUTT if they are from the same chain going into the same chain.. I kind of agree with the both of you and do think it would be a good thing for the beginner to be aware of the downside of a bad JOINT.
