      Great video, thanks for the information. Maybe run the chain up to speed before hitting the wood… I got that tip while watching another video, seems a reasonable suggestion.

    Thanks for the video. The first number designates the CC range, so #3 indicates about 55 to 65 CC. The second number designates pro or home owner model: even number is pro model, , odd number is homeowner. the third digit indicates the number of the upgrade, so the 362 is 59CC pro, second upgrade from the 360 model (Like a bigger fuel tank)

    I have one with a 25" bar as well. Running a full chisel skip chain and it shreds. I use my 261 a lot more as it's lighter, but the full wrap handle on the 362 is nice for extra options when felling on a hillside. Noticably more power also.

    • @JohnVHLife
      @JohnVHLife  ปีที่แล้ว

      I kind of regret not getting the full wrap. But still love the saw!

    • @nicktaylor48

      Does your 362 have the full wrap handle? If so, does it fit in a standard saw case or do you have to get a special case for it?

    I recently bought the Stihl MS 661 CM and I feel the same way about my saw.
    Also got the Husky 592 XP which is another great saw.
    Good vid and glad you're enjoying your saw.

    I have a new 261, a 460 and a 660 and soon I will get a 362. That's why I watched this video. It will be my limbing saw and will have a 28" bar with skip tooth on it.
    If you're interested I advise putting on a Bark Box, filter and dogs from West Coast saws onto your saw.
    Also a bash plate from Custom chainsaw parts. And a wrap handle for felling.
    Oh, by the way, I bought the Stihl Egg and they are awful. They leak water and fill up when left outside in the rain. I will never do that again. I don't even use the one I bought.
    And when I put the WCS dogs on the 261 it doesn't fit in the egg. I suppose that's not Stihl's fault. They are rubbish.

    • @JohnVHLife
      @JohnVHLife  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      A 16 on a 362? Wow, thats really small on there. Im so happy with the power with the 25", some said it was too much, but its not!

    • @robertholloway7105
      @robertholloway7105 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I think generally people don't use long bars in the UK if it's not necessary better be lighter and less fatigue also the saw feels very lively with a shorter bar. I think this would be the same for most pro fellers across Europe.
      I have a pro mac 850 with a 32" on for larger trunks.

    Run that saw. Have her up to speed before entering wood. Your lugging it and you’ll get excessive oil build up and carbon. There made to run wide open.
