Thread: New toy for my birthday

Nice, but I don't see your safety pants. What was the term again?

Husqvarna make a nice blue pair in an emo fit, if you have skinny legs.

You'll be very happy with the Stihl. Our little Stihl is now 15 years old and is our constant companion in the bush - it's getting a little tired now and due for replacement actually - I'll probably get the same as you have.

Make sure they greased the chain sprocket bearing ( not sure what the official name of it is ) in their pre-delivery with graphite grease. On a chainsaw course I did a while ago most of the new Stihls had not been done by the dealer. It's easy enough to check and do yourself.

Thanks mate

I looked at a few of the cheaper saws around, very tempting, and decided to go with the Stihl for the simple reason of parts availability and reliability. If it was something that i was going to use regularly around the city i would get a cheaper saw and use it till it died and get another. But this saw is going to be used only occasionally and when i need it i want to know it's going to do it's job......

Are you talking about the sprocket bearing at the end of the bar or the bearing in the drive sprocket?

O oh, i feel another chainsaw thread coming .
