I found that super clean is the best I spray it on the chainsaw let it sit for 10 minutes then spray it with the hose and it looks brand new I have some very dirty saws and it works great on them
I generally cleaned the bar and everything under the side plate by scooping the oily sawdust out and wiping it all off. But I didn't use mine to make a living cutting all day. I can see why they just cleaned it enough to keep it running after working all day long. Being tired out and cleaning it takes away from what little free time they have after work. I think if they had a parts cleaner like yours that they would use it. If they were company saws, I think it would pay for the company to buy a parts cleaner like yours. It might save them money in the long run. 🤔
You’re living my dream I’m trying to start up a small repair and resale business for saws and other lawn equipment but I just don’t have the funds yet.
Yeah I totally hear you there. If its your passion, and working is "fun" then its all worth it. Let me know if you want or need any farmertec saws. I'll give you the best deal I can. Thanks for watching.
I take mine to the car wash lol high pressure soap and high pressure rinse works very well and anything left on if I am working on a saw then I use mineral spirits in a big Rubbermaid tote and parts brush then break clean to remove mineral spirits for servicing
I find it hard not production guy just urban trees, but yer nice to clean em bit of maitenance. Hard to find time but with a beer n some music ok. Nice feelin havin em ready. Thanx
Everyone like to make a huge mess. Air blow it when it dry. Loosening all the crud w a big flathead. Then wipe it off. I want to know how yall keep water out of the fuel tank? Of course you have to tip it amd blow nasty gas water all over. Sounds great.
I like to open up the saw saw,take all the covers off soak with foaming superclean for half hour then get Bullseye water hose nozzle & hose it CLEAN! The BEST! ALOHA from Maui! 🍒🤗👌👍👊🤙🏾🤙🏻
WD-40, let it soak, use small screwdriver to pick and scrap. Wipe off as you go. Than compressed air.. I like to flush bottom end with Rich two stroke fuel, and drain out.
Man I'm late on this vid.... anyone kno if Simple Green works well? My dad used to use it for most things around the house and shop but we always just used compressed air and paper towels for power tools. I think I'm going to try it out today if I have enough time after work God bless.
I’m the same way , but I believe I’m a little worst then you, I’ve fired guys for not taken half way decent care of there saw , I’ve gave guys new saws and look at them few weeks later and the look like junk , that gets my blood boiling they just throw them around and never wipe them of or take a air hose to them and blow the saw dust of the saw and I have a shop with a air compressor and service truck with a air compressor on it is at the jobs every day,
Those first two saws weren't really dirty. It looks like they were use broke down, put up and they just got dusty. Lol which is dirty but not like using it.
Problem is the many prior owners who never ever blew the grime, oil and sawdust out of every nook and cranny inside the saw, never clean or degrease, then sell you a cheap “running” powerhead on EBay. Then, instead of putting saw to work, I, being scrupulously clean with my own pro saws, am too disgusted to let such nice formerly glorious saws get put to work looking like crap. I just picked up a vintage 288xp . Not only is every square centimeter filthy, but some genius tried to paint over oily, greasy, dirty metal and plastic and the paint comes off on my gloves, but now the film is trapped under the paint so I have to strip it to the bare metal to be able to prime and paint it. Let’s not even talk about the reckless indifference to the mechanicals. Caveat emptor. If I didn’t love old Husky’s I’d toss this in a dumpster, but I can’t blame the saw for its dumb owner. But I can blame the dummy writing this for buying the saw..
We’ll this video sucked, it’s not a “how to” video , it’s put saws into a cleaner then listening to a guy chatting about his day around the shop #boring 🥱😴
Back in the regiment we had a saying that’s been around for 500 years.
“Take care of your gear and your gear will take care of you!”
My wife will 100% kill me if I try use the dishwasher to clean my chainsaws....but it's worth the try...

I clean plastic parts in the dishwasher. Scrape all the heavy stuff off first of course. Everything else I do by hand or solvent tank.

You rock. Thank you so much.
I use a small power washer from harbor freight with Dawn dish soap

Dirty saws are the worst!!

I can't stand to see my saws dirty I we'll work them hard and clean them up
😲
I clean mine completely every time I use them haha blow em right apart
Always just used a lanox nateral spray. Then after 10 mins blow it out. But i know shit.
Pretty pointless video I would say! Most of us don’t have a parts cleaner like yours. Have to do it the time consuming way. 🤷🏻♂️
Para eso te pagan .para darle servicio
Come on get on with the how to instructions I don’t need to know how much you dislike dirty equipment

Don't clean them it's a waste of time. When they start bogging down clean the air filter.
