It definitely is a bunch of bs to idle the saw 3-4 heat cycles on canned gas mixed 25:1, let sit for night and next day couple more idle heat cycles. Then go cut for a tank at 1/2 throttle then finally cut at full power for 1/2 tank. Guy on facebook actually told me it was Stihl’s procedure to break a saw in with heat cycles idling then light cutting ect. Showed him break in procedure in a manual, says warm up and cut normally.These guys that have all these weird break in procedures and play sprinkles with their saws for the first how ever many tanks of gas are pissing in the wind, I start them and let them warm up for a minute or so and then load the balls off of them. After a couple tanks of gas they run as good as they ever will, only saw I ever experienced that took a little longer to get loose was a 500, why I have no idea.
