    Farmertec Warning

    Hello All, Long time reader, first time poster. I wanted to warn everyone of the underhanded tactics Farmertec utilizes. I like most other people, could not afford a big saw for the little work i was planning on using, and could not even afford a used big saw that i could find. So i was...

    Melted Boot on Farmertec 070

    Hi guys. Today I was milling for the first time with my farmertec 070 clone and noticed the spark plug boot was smoking. I popped it off and the inside was melted. I’ve had a number of issues with the saw already and I know they’re to be expected with China junk but I didn’t expect this. Any...

    660 clone port timing numbers for milling (torque)

    I smoked my cylinder on my 660 clone while milling by having the high adjustment too lean. Now I am holding a new 36$ knock off cylinder in my hand and have just ordered a degree wheel to check timing. By just measunring with the calipers I can tell that this cylinder is way off compared to the...

    Where to Buy Farmertec Saws

    I've been shopping around for a 660 kit with the intent of slapping it on my granberg 36" mill. Seems there isn't a lot of sellers on ebay and there's no way I'm buying directly from farmertec. Yes, I know these saws aren't what a stihl is, but I like tinkering anyway so I'm fine with it. I'm...

    Farmertec 090 Aftermarket Cylinder Options

    I'm currently building a farmertec 070 clone and I wanted to use the bigger bore 66mm cylinder for the 090 conversion, for extra ccs for milling, but I wasn't happy with the farmertec cylinder quality for the 66mm (the 58mm was much better). The finish outside was splotchy and the ports weren't...

    Farmertec MS660 big bore cylinder (issue?)

    Hello! I have noticed something that may or may not be an issue with my cylinder wich I just got from farmertec. the issue being that there is a lip on the cylinder head wich is between 0.4-0.6mm tall(Fig 1). If I was to sand this away I would end up with a 0.6-0.7mm gap on the exhaust port...

    MS461 Cylinder - Farmertec vs OEM (Photos)

    Just wanted to share some photos of the Farmertec MS461 Cylinder I received today. Planning to learn how to port, so bought the AM parts to practice on for $19 shipped instead of OEM for $226 on EB. The Farmertec casting looks much more refined than OEM, but he machining is quite lackluster...

    FarmerTec Holzfforma G660 Purple Monster

    Is this a mean purple machine or is it blue? I just got one last week. It is exactly the same as the kit just blue and without the opportunity to improve it. I see where the rotor still breaks. Do you disassemble it for preventive stuff or run it until its done? I could smell gas, maybe they...

    FarmerTec MS200t Chainsaw Build Thread

    I am kicking this off with one video while I wait on the few parts I ordered to arrive. The control handle. Was a great puzzle. To attach the handle bar one screw goes under the switch shaft. The handle seems to be high quality, of course I don't have it attached yet. So it will be a bit before...

    FarmerTec MS200t What's in the Box

    I am posting this here so you can get a good look at the parts included in the kit. I briefly had a 020 topper. The video is clear enough on a good desktop for you to see the parts real well. I was unsure of the quality of the copy's handle because I have never handled a bare one. My 192t gave...

    MS200T AM Piston-Cylinder Clearance too tight?

    I am trying to diagnose why the intake boot on my 90% Farmertec MS200T melted. My Initial though was that the AM boot is not to spec, but now I am wondering if the tight fit between the piston and cylinder is causing excessive heat. As I was disassembling the cylinder to delete the base gasket...

    Huztl ms361 Hux

    I've been searching for the answer to this but to no avail, so here it goes. Just finished building an ms361 with the big bore kit, mostly just for fun. I know these are not the best thing out there so please don't just tell me huztl is crap, I am aware.... Got it started and turned it until...

    Oil Fuel ratio - OEM vs Farmertec Kit

    Just browsing on Huztl's website and noticed the assembled MS660 and 372 clones (G660 and G372) both indicate a fuel-oil ratio of 25:1. Leads me to wonder why the big difference between Stihl & Husqvarna calling for 50:1 and Huztl using AM parts calling for 25:1. The Huztl saws are assembled...

    Stihl FS120 FarmerTec Copy of the Powerhead and Controller

    I have been wanting a pole saw and a dedicated bush cutter so I got this to use one way or the other. I got it unsure of the handle mount since the huztl.net website does not show that aspect. So I decided I would sort all that out once I got it in my hands on it. It is a very well made 2 cycle...

    Stihl Paint

    I found this color that is an exact match for the orange. I ordered it of course with hope and after it arrived at the dealer/ace we took it to the stihl dept and it is an exact color match. It looks to be a dual coat for plastic. The almost grays did not get it for me, this stihl gray was shown...
