just used my timberpro to drop and buck a 30 inch hardwood. the second chain gave up toward the end and had to get a new chain and the 76 link chain is only available on line. Went to big box retailer and picked up a husqvarna bar and chain and paid a premium for it but... the saw performed much better and i can source chains at any hardware store. Even a plunge cut is easier. 20 inch chain # H 30-80 bar #HLN 250-80 make sure it is .325 pitch.
That bar and chain probably cost almost as much as the entire saw itself. Lol. You pay dearly for name brand stuff. I buy all my chains online. Oregon does make a chain for these saws.
The timberpro saws I found an amazon and ebay are holding at $200 (what I paid last year) and after a year of cutting down and bucking trees on my property I didn't mind making a $75 investment to keep it working well and more importantly safe. For S&Gs maybe do a side by side with the same set up especially plunge cuts. It is the only chainsaw I own and it has saved me thousands in tree service. In full disclosure I did use a rope saw over many weeks to top the tree because it was within striking distance of my home and other trees my wife didn't want damaged but when the limbs hit the ground the timberpro made short work of them (original chain). Last year my wife said "get the chainsaw you want" and I shopped and for the amount I would use it I couldn't justify $500-$600 for a saw. $200 for a saw and much money left over for PPE (I have a dear friend and mentor cut his leg) and a fiskars splitting ax SOLD! Yes after bucking the tree I split the logs (by hand) so my kids could move them to the wood pile. Thanks for your videos the info in them me pull the trigger on the saw. If you don"t have a fiskars splitting ax get one.... everything else will rust in your garage. subscribed...
My favorite thing about these videos are, 1. I learn about saws that I may have never heard of. 2. The comments, by that Ive been reading GREAT things from the guys that actually own timberpro. 3. This guy is thorough and uses what he can afford and seems to be doing well at it.
I have a Timberpro 62cc. The all orange one. These are clones/copies of Zenoah or Redmax, I think Japanese, saws. There are a lot of variations from the Chinese market, many being 52cc, some 58cc. I've personally had 4 or 5 now. All based on the same design but from different manufacturers, most parts are interchangeable. They're not a bad entry level saw if you put a domestic bar and chain on them.

I've enjoyed your chain saw videos. Thanks! I have almost four heavily wooded acres to maintain about halfway up a bluff line in suburbia. Very rough terrain with few flat areas near the house. I got a Timberpro basic saw to deal with some larger old growth trees I had to have cut down after some county road work harmed their root systems. My vintage Homelite that I still love couldn't handle their size. Oaks, 2 sycamores and a mimosa. Saw has worked great so far. I had to adjust the carb once (thanks to another video here I know how to do it right). That cleared up a starting issue that developed and lets me set it down and it would idle half the day just fine. I am female and on the slender side, but this saw is easy to handle. Did my first slab attempt with it yesterday, and it worked out fine. Through eight or nine inches of sycamore that was solid wood. People can complain about the nation of manufacture all they want. These are decent saws. Little touches that you may not notice for a while, but will appreciate if you've worked around tools for long. Got dark too soon since winter is approaching now, but I'll finish those slabs hopefully before if gets too cold. I am a cold wuss! Hopefully, I'll have a new computer desk and bookcases from these trees. Have to honor those old downed friends by using their wood. I just wonder why I still have all of these leaves around the house to rake with three of them gone! Looking forward to more videos from you.
After going through these comments, which are quite typical whenever someone has an opinion in their videos here, any opinion at all by the way, I'd have to ask these folks if they buy anything at Wal-Mart. If so, they already buy Chinese goods. They actually own our soul already if product sales and stocking are an indication. I ride a Harley and HD snobs seem to not realize even those are not American made any longer. Tool snobs are no different. That's the thing with folks who REALLY get into something and know it well. They do not snob up at a brand name. Witness those cussing at their Harley or Stihl because they won't start. LOL
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed them. Once the trees roots are harmed its tough to get the tree back to how it was originally. I don't think I have ever had to adjust the carb on the timberpro saws. I enjoy chainsaw milling. It takes a lot of time though. There are not many things that are truly made in America anymore.
Yeah I get a good laugh when a stihl or husqvarna saw wont start. Their supposed to be so much better. Those saws are still prone to problems just the same as any saws are including mine.
The scrench attachment is brilliant. Chain oil leaks can be ignored for as long as the chain is adequately oiled. That said I've got 11 years and a hundred gallons of gas thru my husqvarna 455 and I'm now on my 3rd bar with 2 machined bar good and worn out. I wish you luck with these Chinese saws I really do but I have doubts regards their value at any price as I really doubt you'll go 50 gallons with either saw. I did have vent problems with both 455 ' s however which I consider a huge nuisance so kudos to you on conquering that problem .
Really interesting series of videos on these saws. They're rarely covered on TH-cam, with most obsessing about the big-name brands. Am a long-term saw user and have always wondered about how cheaper saws compared, though never had the gumption to get one ... until now. The 62cc Timperpro arrived recently, so am looking forward to objectively forming an opinion. Have to say, early impressions are good. For the price, it stacks up extraordinarily well. Getting parts may be a problem but am hoping if it's maintained and taken care of, it'll keep on ticking away. The only thing I'm immediately looking to change are the chains [and possible bar configurations]; would also like to see what alternative drive sprockets will fit, if any. Thanks for your effort and time you put into sharing your own experience and expertise. No need to be modest: You have both in spades.
Thanks for the tip! I must look into that. No need yet, as the saw is performing beyond all expectations, but it's always good to have spares sitting ready or know where they can be sourced. Thanks again.
Or at least on eBay UK. They must be available on eBAy US as well. They are pretty generic Chinese chainsaw parts. TimberPro is a UK/US reimporter/brander, and they have a good rep.
The Pro model looks like it has better engine cooling via more venting area, looks way better than the homeowner model. And agree with you that the air filter on the pro model should be a paper-style filter like the big name brands have.
The pro-pro is newer than the home-pro so you'll have to take that into consideration when comparing them. Need to try and get them both up to the same hours. Now is the best time to do some milling with the nice cool weather. Did you get any logs from when the professionals took down some trees by the deck and wires? Do you have logs ready to be milled? Keep up the great work.
I'm still waiting on my timber pro to show up. Can't wait to break it in. I already have an Archer full chisel non safety chain waiting on it and a RPM plus hour meter. Is the saw a hub sprocket or a regular sprocket?
Looking HARD at one of these. Any idea how long the "Pro" Timberpro has been available from them? What model knockoff is this if I was looking for parts?
I have the timberpro but not getting a spark. Took the ignition module off and measured resistance. 0.25 ohm primary and 1.45 ohm secondary. Does anyone know if these values are low or correct. Cant find the values written anywhere
Put a spark checker onto the plug wire and the spark plug. If you don't have any spark, theres a good chance its the coil. It could be a switch also. Test the switch to make sure its functioning correctly too. Hope you get it fixed.
The fuel ratio has nothing to do with the saw, its to do with the fact it may be used with a crap quality 2 stoke oil so they say 25:1 to be on the safe side, these saws run much much better on good quality oil at 50 or 40:1.
EvoJigger no they dont running them on 50 .1 would score the fuck out of the pistons on them especially the mk1 version ive got one which i put aspen 2 in it was scored after about three tankfuls .
Why don't you get a stihl or a husky at my local shop you can get a ms270 for less than $400 last time I checked you could get a ms290 for about $400 a 50-55cc stihl would cut a lot better than your Chinese saws
Stay awy from Stihl 261. My Stihl 261 broke down after only 3 years of cutting firewood. Stihl said it was my fault because I didnt use the Stihl oil and alcylat gasoline! 026 was a much more robust saw and I had one for allmost 20 years and used shell oil and 95 gas mixed 2%. Not happy with the Stihl 261 and Stihl support.Warranty dont count if you dont use Stihls own oil or alcylatgas
Ola Normann if you have ever built a saw ran with different oils ran in them you would stick with the sthil synthetic oil. It's one of top 3 oils and is redaly avalible.
I bought the "Professional" saw. My worst purchase ever! Chain seized after 3 WEEKS use. Dan at TimberPro accused me of running the saw with the break on. REALLY? I asked for refund or replacement. This what he said, "We will not be providing you with a refund for this order as it is clear that the damage to the brake is from misuse. Why should we refund you if the damage is caused by you? Would you see this as fair if the point of view was reversed."
Sorry you've had problems with your saw. That seems weird that would happen. Were you getting bar oil to the chain? Hope you get the problem solved. I've never had any of those issues with my saws.
Randell, with the parts you need, try searching ebay for the bits, these chinese saws tend to use generic parts, try searching for "45cc oil pump chainsaw" or what ever cc yours is (all the same saw, just the piston and cylinder are bigger/smaller) or "chinese chainsaw oil pump", and try and find one that looks the same, can be bought for a few $. sod paying the amount for timber pro parts. Just as an example, if you buy in bulk from china, these saws complete can be bought for less than $10 a unit, so them wanting that amount for the parts is a joke.
Randell Duggins The same thing happened with an Echo chainsaw to me. The dealer refused to honor the warranty and Echo Corporation was of no help either. I have and never will buy an Echo product again.
Tutoriale si Review-uri Ro Why do you call your old chinese saw 'The Chinese saw' and this two chinese saws in this video 'Timberpro pro and homeowner'? All 3 saws are Chinese. I dont want to burst your bubble but even the Timberpro lady said in your comments that this are Chinese saws. and no! you didn't bought the same amount of saw as if you would have bought a stihl or husqvarna. Buy one! Then you can have an opinion about both sides.
If you need a sawmill buy a used one !! Many people buy those & ultimately they turn out to be far more machine than they need. Google "Used bandsaw mills web sight" ,there s one out there & it had screaming deals. Just saying.......
I do need a sawmill. A band saw mill is a lot faster than chainsaw milling and it takes less fuel to make each cut plus there is less kerf too. I don't think the band saw mill I would buy would be more of a machine than I need. Ive researched used bandsaw mills and there doesn't seem to be many for sale in my area. Will have to check out your website.
I bet the Japanese Echo Timberwolf 590 is a much better saw than those generic "Timberpros". Not bashing you, Japanese quality is far superior, if you want an Asian saw. Get price point at $400 too.
Both are Chinese pattern or design ... the 62cc is bull ... buy a 58cc model ... the 58cc Joncutter from Huztl is $110 and equal to the BlueMax or Timberpro. .. don't come with bar or chain but that is a plus ... buy a good chain and bar with the money saved ... all these 45-62 cc chinese design saws use the same crankcase so the 62cc cylinder is too much displacement for the crankcase volume
What i see are two home owner saw.....sorry but i see many guys disappointed with chinese saws...next don't spend your money on two chinese buy and Echo they are very well made for the price.
So you ended up spending about $400 and you still don't have a quality or reliable tool. Sorry I don't get it. When this saw bites the dust, just save up a little and go buy an Echo cs-590 for $399. A true pro grade saw should last 1,000 hours before a top end rebuild. If you buy something right, you buy it once. Not trying to beat you down young man, just offering some good advice.
I've never spent anywhere near $400 on one saw. I got 2 saws for less than the price of just 1 echo. It was more like $368 for both saws. If I were to break one of these saws its not $400 down the drain or take the saw to my "local authorized service dealer" and probably spend just about half of what the saw is worth to rebuild it. I'd just go buy a brand new timber pro. Then I get a new saw. Echo does make some nice saws but not for my budget and power needs.
Perhaps I have been cutting wood now for 4 seasons with the Orange timberpro 6150 the 62cc model of his orange one. I also go out and cut cords or wood with my in laws this saw has held up. They cut with Husq Chainsaw ,and what I have come to conclude is it as much the operator how well the saw is taken care of and how good you are at maintenance if a saw last runs well and succeeds at the job! Also we cut hedge for building Cattle Fence lots of hedge and if a saw holds up to that it is good in my book whether it is a stihl, echo, husq, or timberpro!
Love2boat92 not being mean buddy but you playing a game of Russian roulette. I do this for living see guys like you and your buddy's kill or get killed all the time. Like I said work with a professional for while so you can really learn. Be safe man.

I have a Timberpro 62cc, second season and very happy with it. Is it a Husqvarna clone? Was looking at aftermarket Husky rebuild kits for the future.
I am not sure what it is a clone of if it is a clone to begin with. I can't help you there. Sorry.
I have a Timberpro 62cc. The all orange one. These are clones/copies of Zenoah or Redmax, I think Japanese, saws. There are a lot of variations from the Chinese market, many being 52cc, some 58cc.

Anyone know where to buy a carburetor for the Timberpro CS6150. I can only find one on eBay and it doesn’t have 3 gas ports.
where do I purchase one at, I looked on Amazon and E-bay but couldn't find.

Hi. I have a home owner timberpro chainsaw like your orange. I'd like to buy the proffesional. Where to go?
now we are at a loss on how they perform somewhere in the woods or even the backyard.

Very nice comparison!
It seems that the newer version is way better built than the old one!
All the best!
Thank you!! The newer saws are nice for everyday use the old one are cool to fire up and use every once in a while. Same to you.

Great honest review👍👍👍
Thank you!!
if you had to buy one, which would you choose?
i got a little 2 stroke myself i run 40:1, no problems so far.
I'm still waiting on my timber pro to show up. Can't wait to break it in. I already have an Archer full chisel non safety chain waiting on it and a RPM plus hour meter. Is the saw a hub sprocket or a regular sprocket?
It has an outboard clutch for the chain. With a full chisel chain that saw will cut really good.
It sounds a bit nasally does the chainsaw Effect how you talk Or is it the petrol fumes and Mixture
they don't sell them anymore only part replacement I could find was the chain from Still, amazon said they don't deliver parts to the states
Looking HARD at one of these. Any idea how long the "Pro" Timberpro has been available from them? What model knockoff is this if I was looking for parts?
I have no idea how long they have been making the professional saw. I also don't know what knockoff it is. Sorry I am not much help. Lol.
Sold mine off, actually kind of miss it. It cut good with an Oregon chain!
Thats no good. Oregon makes some great chainsaw chain.
Which one is Best? Is the Orange one nice?
Both saws are pretty nice. I like the professional one better now.
Am wondering if the Pro model has a wee bit more power than the homeowner model with the feel of extra compression.
Now it does. LOL.
Love2boat92 What happened that the professional model has more power than the regular model?
The regular model has the scoured cylinder and piston. I can feel it has less power.
Love2boat92 Any chance on getting a new cylinder, piston, and rings?
I have the timberpro but not getting a spark. Took the ignition module off and measured resistance. 0.25 ohm primary and 1.45 ohm secondary. Does anyone know if these values are low or correct. Cant find the values written anywhere
fostex fan hi, if you send an email to help@micromantis.com a member of the help team can further assist you.
Put a spark checker onto the plug wire and the spark plug. If you don't have any spark, theres a good chance its the coil. It could be a switch also. Test the switch to make sure its functioning correctly too. Hope you get it fixed.
How is the scheppach doing?
It was dead but I got it going again. Hope to have a video on it shortly as soon as I edit it and upload it.
A chainsaw that you use to cut like tree limbing or being a logger
Looks like a Harbor Freight tire changer in the back ground.
The old one is still is a pro saw because it has a aluminum frame and have adjustable oilers.
Eliot Yang not when it's recommended fuel ratio is 25:1.
that's indicative of a dinasaur.
40:1 is 1960's.
The fuel ratio has nothing to do with the saw, its to do with the fact it may be used with a crap quality 2 stoke oil so they say 25:1 to be on the safe side, these saws run much much better on good quality oil at 50 or 40:1.
EvoJigger no they dont running them on 50 .1 would score the fuck out of the pistons on them especially the mk1 version ive got one which i put aspen 2 in it was scored after about three tankfuls .
Ok, we will have to agree to disagree on that.
I guess you get those at Walmart?
Profesional between a and chainsaw
Why don't you get a stihl or a husky at my local shop you can get a ms270 for less than $400 last time I checked you could get a ms290 for about $400 a 50-55cc stihl would cut a lot better than your Chinese saws
Rich Herman why when you can get a saw for 50 bucks
Kevin Beck true but if you spend a little extra money on a saw it will usually last you longer
Rich Herman I've had mine for three years no problems it's starts every time
I’d rather my timberpro over any husky any day.
@@jdrc4144 and I'm just the opposite 😉

Old xl12s rule, new Homelites are junk.

I will only get stihl husqvarna or echo
I will only buy Timberpro, hutzel or Chinese.
Love2boat92 I have about 30 saws stihl and husqvarna my biggest saw is a ms 650 with a 85 cc engine and a 36 inch bar and chain
Ray Morrison Wow that's a lot of saw. I bet that Stihl was a lot of money to buy.
Love2boat92 ms650 is a stihl
Fixed
If i could spell tho
40:1 is pretty much universal. That 25:1 saw will run just fine on 40:1
I don't know think he's going to make a video of it cutting a log because it will fall apart
Its not going to fall apart. Lol.
What i see are two home owner saw.....sorry but i see many guys disappointed with chinese saws...next don't spend your money on two chinese buy and Echo they are very well made for the price.
So you ended up spending about $400 and you still don't have a quality or reliable tool. Sorry I don't get it. When this saw bites the dust, just save up a little and go buy an Echo cs-590 for $399. A true pro grade saw should last 1,000 hours before a top end rebuild. If you buy something right, you buy it once. Not trying to beat you down young man, just offering some good advice.
I've never spent anywhere near $400 on one saw. I got 2 saws for less than the price of just 1 echo. It was more like $368 for both saws. If I were to break one of these saws its not $400 down the drain or take the saw to my "local authorized service dealer" and probably spend just about half of what the saw is worth to rebuild it. I'd just go buy a brand new timber pro. Then I get a new saw. Echo does make some nice saws but not for my budget and power needs.
Perhaps I have been cutting wood now for 4 seasons with the Orange timberpro 6150 the 62cc model of his orange one. I also go out and cut cords or wood with my in laws this saw has held up. They cut with Husq Chainsaw ,and what I have come to conclude is it as much the operator how well the saw is taken care of and how good you are at maintenance if a saw last runs well and succeeds at the job! Also we cut hedge for building Cattle Fence lots of hedge and if a saw holds up to that it is good in my book whether it is a stihl, echo, husq, or timberpro!
Love2boat92 try spending 1300 on a saw 🙂💪
HighVoltage Ampere No thank you. I would rather take that money and spend it on a sawmill, not a chainsaw. Lol.
Love2boat92 I spend it on saws lol
