Looking to buy a new chainsaw. *How do the low end home owner type
Stihls hold up? *I'm not normally cutting firewood, but it seems a few
75 foot trees close to the house have to come down each year so I can
sleep at night. *Lets say I cut down about 5 trees a year with diameters
from 12" up to 18", up to 75' tall. *Is a low end model with an 18"
chain enough? *I'd definitely like one with the newer easy to adjust
chain.
I have been using a crapsman/paulon? and the only thing I hated from the
start was adjusting the chain. *I bought it for $50 about 10 years ago
at Sears as a refurbished unit someone returned. * *It always starts in
1 or 2 pulls no matter how long it sits. *I'm going to spend
$18 on a new clutch part, the side with the chain sprocket is worn.
