Stihlmans Wood,Tree cutting ramblings...........

[deye223]

Yep can do that but will not be able to use the same chain on eack 241 is .325 and 261 is 3/8 chains.

that don't matter andrew just want to see how they compare WITH THERE representative cutting systems

 

[Stihlman441]

I dont think there will be much in it with wood up to about 10'' dia.

Have you ever run. 325 on your 261? Mine has. 325 on it and I will probably leave it that way since I have 16",18", and 20" bars for it in. 325. I was wondering if there was a difference since the 3/8 has a bigger diameter rim.

 

[deye223]

i would but the wood around here is full of sand so i would be sharpening evry 5 minutes

 

[Stihlman441]

I was the the other way around all my chains are 3/8 untill the 241 came along.
And yes the 3/8 rim sprocket is a little larger and i add one extra drive link to my chains.

be good to see a 9 pin .325 on a 261 but don't know any one with a .325 bar i've only got a 20" hard nose in 63g

I put about 4 or 5 tanks through the 441C stocky yesterday blocking green Sugargum with a 20'' bar and i am very impressed and so is my cutting mate ,had truble getting it back off him.:msp_rolleyes:

I did post a 241 .325 vs 261 .325 video a while ago, even chucked a 017 at the same wood for comparison.
The wood was brown cement and they all looked slow

[Stihlman441]

Plug from 441C after muff modd and about 8 tanks of fuel.

 

[Stihlman441]

I have been doing heaps of trimming and the 241C has been getting a work out.

Is the little fella going alright Andrew?

 

[Stihlman441]

Well yes and no.
Its amazing how much power this little fella has got when you put him into something with a bit of diameter.
The only thing i dont like he is a little sluggish of the line,was the same before the muff modd and i was hoping this would improve after muff modd but no still the same.
You cant say he is not running rich enough,but with all this trimming he dosnt get a good run.

 

[Stihlman441]

Fuel use 241C.
After the third day trimming,3 1/2 hrs most times dont quite get through the 3 rd tank.

 

[Stihlman441]

Fresh one.
The son in law to be took the other one.
I ordered this on the 3/5 and today being the 8/5 thats not bad 5 days from the UK.:msp_biggrin:

Fairs fair as long as you are on centerlink payments of some sorts. Long live Queen Juila while she reins

This may interest some.
The saw on the left is a ported 441CMTronic with about 40 tanks of fuel through it.
The saw on the right is a stock 441CMTronic with 2 tanks of fuel through it.
Both saws have been run on the same fuel BP Premium 95 and Mobil 1 2T oil at 40:1.
Look at the colour of the muffs,the stock saw is definitely running hotter.
I took the muff screw bungs out to do muff modd when i noticed the colour difference.

cop a load at this one andrew this is HOT ??????????
