How to Freehand Chainsaw Mill with a Stihl - 9 Useful Tips
#HowTo, #ChainsawUse, #TipsAndTricks
In this video I go through my expensive learning experience as a first time Stihl owner. I learnt so much in the last few days about the running in and care of the Stihl MS261CB that I decided to share it with you.
The most important thing is to break in your chainsaw according to your owners manual. Yes I know that is obvious but it is definitely worth a mention because I didn't.
Second most important thing is to never leave full throttle on for longer than 10 to 15 seconds when freehand chainsaw milling.
Your chainsaw will be working very hard so its important to treat it right! :)
I have decided to use 3% of 2 stroke oil instead of 2% and also use Stihl´s Motomix every ten or so tanks just to clean it out a little every now and then.
As I am a total beginner and only just learnt how to mill by watching YT vids with an old cheap Sterwins which isn't as precisely engineered as a Stihl, I didn't even think about these things.
I hope some of you can take something from this video, whether picking up a few tips on freehand chainsaw milling or how not to kill your beloved chainsaw when you are a beginner! :)
Thanks for watching!

4 years ago my partner Sarah and I left the city life and decided to live off-grid with no previous experience and this channel is all about our projects and builds 3 years into our life on the road to self-sufficiency on a 17 hectare piece of land in Central Portugal
With no previous experience everything we do is a learning process and we hope you will join us on this learning journey where we share our projects and our lessons learnt.
We love putting these videos together and love sharing our experiences so join our family if you wish😉
