Funny. I haven't seen any Stihl saws on any bench in CT, just Hooskies in various parts of undress. LMAO
All the while, the Stihl's were outside cutting cookies like a hot knife butter.

I’ve got more way stihls waiting on getting fixed for guys than huskies...
Plus you have your blinders on...

Actually one of them is for you... [emoji33]

I’ve got 5 stihls to work on, just sent 2 others to a friend to work on, so that 7. 1 husky that gave my friend 17 stitches cuz he wouldn’t listen...‍♂️

Other than the ones getting port work.

Curious what the friend who didn't listen did to get 17 stiches? Bad chain brake? Loose chain? Crazy operator?

The primary saw for the local tree guys around here is the 460 or 461.

They seem to be pretty durable under adverse circumstances!
Around here it's husky 372. Stihl just doesnt seem to be as popular... Not sure why. My sampling may be flawed, but whenever I see a tree crew I look to see what saws.

Chain was spinning at idle. He told me and I said don’t run it. Didn’t listen...
Haven’t looked to see why. Guessing airleak.

Had a saw that clutch was so bad if u hit chain brake it would stop the saw. Had the saw fixed plain and simple. Those were the days I knew zero about saws. Would not want to work with a saw that chain won't stop... Bad idea.

They must love saws that only run in short sessions. More break time.

Same here although 1 larger company went to the ECHO 680 because they had been running the MS362C as their ground saw when the 461s weren’t needed, but didn’t operate it WOT Enough & was causing major MTronic problems.
