What not to do

[Hinerman]

I think these are common sense for OPE. However, I have never heard of #4. My saw runs out of gas, I refuel right away and continue cutting. Thoughts...

I always pour gasoline all over the saw,the ground around it, and myself.
It's best that way.

pro tip: go take a walk and eat a twinkie after every tank of fuel

All of my blades are dull. The chains I keep sharp.

Tis the season

Remembering to put the cap back on the tank after refueling so as to not wearing a lap fuel of mix gas is more important than refueling a hot saw.. to me.. IMO

Chicken!

I watched an old fellow dump 2 tankfulls on his crotch. He thought it best to give up for the day as it was below 0 degrees.

I would think if a person sat in the shade and sips a beer or two or three between tanks the saw should be sufficiently cooled off.

Only one beer could be risky.
Safety first!

Waste of time. Have 2-3 saws and trade each tank.
Geeze…noobs…

A few years ago I was cutting a hillside and rolling on pretty good. It was a really hot summer day so I was already soaked from sweat. I had some gas with some maxima hi-test octane booster mixed in. After a refueling I failed to replace the gas cap on the saw when I quickly picked it up and dumped it all over my front from the belt down (goodies included). The pain was terrible. I immediately yanked my britches down and rinsed off as much as I could with bottled water. I called it a day at that point and in the next week the skin on the front of my thighs peeled off like a sunburn.
I never again mixed any of that octane booster in my saw gas. Doesn’t need it anyway

sarcasm much.

I always use one of these super high tech sharpeners if the chains dull.

If the saw doesn’t start when I’m out in the woods I burry it with the blade straight up out of the ground. In a season or two there be a new saw sprouting out of the bar. At least that’s what all my neighbors have told me, problem is I never remember where I burry the saw.

The saw won’t start, so you scratch your butthole while thinking why!…

You pull the starter a few more times and pick your nose wondering if the saw will ever start!

Then you smell the shït and think fũck what did I do to this saw…
