Excelente video desde Colombia.

Thought the chain was on backwards

I have cleaned my Tanaka until today because the chain was dull . I wish they still built them so well. I will clean more often now that they sold out. So I probably won’t be able to get quality parts: my science is to flip the bar every time the chain needs sharpening helps to prevent uneven wear

Love you ❤😊

Are you still enjoying the 261 three years down the line? And if so, how's it holding up?

Hi Sara I'm curious about a pice of equipment you used. The type(name) of The pulley/rope grab you used when you had to adjust your rope.. . Loved the vid btw. I used it as proof that that was a better way to bring down a leaning tree close to obstacles.

Well explained.

Older lady here who is planning on felling some trees. Will be watching this with great interest, thank you!

Love that you showed the tries ... every video on the CZcamss, people nail these things first try, every time and chalk it up to awesomeness. Happy to see someone who portrays it like it is in real life. Loved it. Also, not sure why - maybe it's just the way you do it, but why do you tuck your ears into your hat? Not making fun - just, you're a cute bird with skllls, if you're self-conscious - don't be!

Nice video Be more careful Nice JOB

Good comprehensive review Sarah! On the old crew, we had one of these, and it was always reliable, rugged, and you didn't have to go into huge debt to own one. I was always behind the Saw, but the Operator said the steering was articulated.

Wow

Stand up and buck and learn yer tip and don't dig in your dawgs

Ripsaw have some good stuff you can order ported saws may take 4 months but werth the wait

does any one know why they just skidding just one at a time is there a reason for it?

Interesting techniques and equipment - awesome job. Cutest woodswoman ever, too. Love your attitude.

We all learn by mistakes...well done.

"the land" is such a funny way of putting it.

Awesome...operated several. 😊

Inspiring! Thank you for sharing 😊

What pulley block brand is the one you used?

There called jaggers. and they can carve you up :(

Rename this video. The new title should be "Cute Girl with a Chainsaw".

Oh thank god I am not the only person who gets mentally screwed with a tangled chain. P.S I also have a MS170.

That 661 will become your new best friend

Great job

Plenty power

Have some fun

You got it girl.

You are posting worthless incomplete information. You are going to get someone hurt. Cringe channel, stop talking like a child.

Thx for your videos … very instructive

What are the chains you are using? That could give one saw a better bite than the other. I have about a 1982 028 AV SUPER. Super that is still going after all these years, a heavily used machine for the purchase all those years ago.

🇩🇪⛓️🪚🟰💩either way.

Hello Sarah. Nice video, reminds me of when I was falling trees and driving a cable skidder etc. I was also involved in training bushmen working in New Zealand's Forest industry. I would like to offer a couple observations about what I observed from a safety point of view. 1) the guy falling does a nice job from what I can see, good cuts and wedging, however, he should look up more often when hitting the wedges as things can and do get dislodged and fall down. Hit the wedge look up and repeat. Yes its longer, however, you might see the branch coming down before it gets you. 2) changing the choker opposition to spin the log is a good trick, however you could cut an angle on the stump or the butt of the log to help the log slide past so it doesn't get stuck which leads onto point 3. 3) (around the 25min mark) when bringing the drag into the skidder, the skidder should not be side onto the drag. You can tip a skidder over easy doing it that way. The arch of the skidder should point towards the drag, even if you have to position the skidder on full lock. I almost rolled the skidder first day on the job by not pointing the arch towards the drag. Its also makes it easier the fleet the rope onto the drum without it crossing over and crushing the rope underneath. The is a New Zealand website called Safetree (www.safetree.nz/) which has some training material on most Forestry jobs. Its written for New Zealand Forestry so some terms will be different, however the knowledge, skills and safety tips apply still apply. Search for BPG or Best Practice Guides if you are interested. Thanks for making the videos so I can watch, enjoy yourself and stay safe.

did a lot of tree work in my younger days, the shot line was a big upgrade over tying a sorta monkeys fist in the climbing line and throwing that, although that's mostly still what you do when in the tree.. I always found the softball pitch windup throw (picture the college softball superstar pitchers) with a few inches of line between your fingers on the throwing hand and the shot bag, with a couple loose loops in your non dominant hand that can fair lead off your fingers easily without snagging so the weight can get a good inertial trajectory before it starts pulling line out of the bag. You will find you can get alot more velocity and range with a windup vs the pendulum method.

Most important thing is cleaning your air filter. 😂

Amateur hour. Theres many more-expwrienced fellers to watch on here. Buckin billy ray, august hunicke, guilty of treeson and reg costes are all highly experienced tree guys, and have much more complete, comprehensive and correct ways of doing basicslly any and all tree work. Dont follow amateur advice that only worked cuz this was a little baby tree. Get yourself hurt. Onwards

Pair warm battery.

Nothing a Lil raid dipped chain can't fix

Incredibly helpful and straight to the point! Well done and thanks!

She does fine but needs to loosen up a little...step in a little closer and unlock the knees. Your back would kill you if you cut like that for long....RELAX....

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing

Very fascinating 👍👍

Nice

24:27 Grumpy chainsaw after almost being hit by the falling tree. :) Great job felling the tree according to your plan and from the first try. Planning to use the winch soon, but still learning how to do it.

Tenho duas 661c são do melhor . Parabéns a Stihl.

The reason is slips is the Mas damn was designed for twisted rope only . your other rope is braided.

(Yawn) yet another CZcams 30 minute video for 2 minutes of content.

👌👌🥰🥰🚜🚜🚜🚜♥️♥️💪💪💪👍👍👍🌳🌳🌳🌳

From the rpm’s of the 261, it sounds like not enough weight was being applied to the saw. I have one, and the rpm’s were way to much. Nevermind, you addressed my comment at the end! Great video
