I very very rarely use my chainsaw so I only run it on Stihl canned fuel and then empty the tank and run it dry before storage. So far the method has worked extremely well with no issues.
Great video. This is a generic chinese clone saw, there are hundreds of brand names of these but they are all the same. The only things that differ on them are the plastics & colours. Things like carbs, pistons, cylinders, cranks, oil pumps, chain breaks are all readily available. These are good saws for the price however they are prone to some common faults like brittle fuel hoses, oil pumps can fail as can the chain breaks if they are handled roughly but these parts are dirt cheap. I guess you get what you pay for but if you're not too bothered about a bit of home repairs and you're like me you actually don't mind it at all, then the plus for these saws are they are great to start hot or cold and they are very powerful for what you pay for them. Even though most of them are badged for 25:1 mix i run mine at 40:1 with fully synthetic 2 stroke and they run perfect and with even more power. Don't get me wrong, these are not a substitute for professional saws but for the average home user they are fine, and probably even good for the above average user if he/she is willing to live with their predictable faults.
I have a Walmart Black Max 18" 38cc saw that was just over $200 out the door, & it's been a mighty fine saw...cranks easy, runs good, cuts good & puts brush & trees on the ground... I've cut enough on my property with it, that if I had to go buy another one, I've gotten tons of use out of it, but I've had it for 3 years & it doesn't appear to be slowing down...comes with a case, saw tool & a spare chain... I'd recommend it to anyone with some property to clear who doesn't have Husqvarna money...canned fuel is way too expensive, I prefer to mix my own gas with Lucas' 2 cycle oil...never had an issue...
It is... it's made by Stanley/Black & Decker, how bad could it be? Lol! I want to upgrade to one of the 20" saws they have, those are 50cc... should go through a tree like butter...
Great video and nice work fixing that chainsaw, I use that premixed canned fuel from the store in my 2 cycle equipment. However I may switch back to using pump gas, after running out of canned fuel I mixed up a small batch of pump gas and did notice a difference running my Stihl TS410 gas chop saw, it seems to rev a lot higher rpm wide open than it did using the canned fuel.
This saw looks like a generic Chinese made machine sold under various names, the one I have was available here in the UK under the brand name Taurus and has thus far been very reliable and cost well under £100 new which when you don't need a chain saw that often is a good price. I do drain it and run it dry though after each outing which may explain it's trouble free life.
I've been taking the fuel line off of my two stroke equipment at the carb, and attaching another line that runs into a bottle of the mix oil and use the purge bulb to fill the carb with straight oil then store it away. Next season put in my mixed fuel and hit the purge bulb until the oil is pushed out and the fuel is in and off you go.
This was eye opening - liked your presentation - voice actuation technology can be great when it speaks clearly like yours did - awesome! I do like my blue max, but I can be lazy which gets one to this point of where I'm at right now (2 turn tables and a microphone - lol) Thanks for doing this and Merry Christmas!
@@HomeGaragechannel Well, it's taken awhile as so busy, but brought the saw inside and set up a workbench at my desk in my living room where the computer is to watch your video whilst taking it all apart and what in the world am I doing (I know Joan won't appreciate the smell and all, but hey getting it done, right Joan?). Everything was pretty good even though kinda saw dusty oiled up as you would expect. So I tried numerous time for the fuel to go the the inlet screen when I push on the rocker arm, but it doesn't. What should this guy do please? thank you!
Took me some time, but through the info you presented I ordered up a carb delivered to me $40 and fired up the saw yesterday and was I happy as I blew out all that blue smoke revving the engine like Jesse James Dupree in the Lumber Jack Song - ha! HA!!!
I own a homelite saw I bought off market place for 20 bucks to cut down 2 ugly over grown ever green trees and it got the job done. Had some carb adjustments issues but I made it work. I run canned fuel and leave the carb empty. Not the greatest quality saw but for 20 bucks I can't complain. My next saw if I ever needed one would be sthl.
I have a box store pole saw i bought and it did the same thing as this saw except it wouldn’t rev up past idle. I adjusted the high side a quarter turn and it starts and runs better than when it was brand new
This is a very helpful video! Thank you for taking the time to post it! Where were you able to buy the diaphram for this chainsaw? I have one just like it and I also need the diaphram. I cannot find it available with much time spent on the interweb... Thanks!
Most of my main saws that I run are older Stihls and Husqvarnas (80s- early 2000s). I run nothing but 89 octane non ethanol rec fuel mixed with Opti-2 at 40 or 50:1 (which has stabilizers in it). In probably around 10 saws I've yet to have a fuel system issue no matter how long I let them sit (normally use them within 2 years of sitting with fuel in them). Believe me or not, I had a late 80s Husqvarna 61 that I left in a shed and forgot about. The saw sat for at least 9 or 10 years. I found it and immediately pulled the fuel cap and it smelled fine. 3 pulls and it fired right up and ran perfect with the 9 year old gas. I'm not saying the canned gas is bad (IMO it is a waste of money for regular use, but if your state doesn't have pump rec fuel, it's a solid choice), but I think it's overpriced for what it is. Yes I always keep a few cans of it in my truck tool box for shit hit the fan situations, why not it has a great shelf life. Bottom line when your storing saws either keep the fuel tank full so it doesn't have room to draw moisture, or empty it completely and start the engine till it completely runs out, and start it again on full choke till it dies. Anything with ethanol in it will destroy it over time (mainly fuel lines and carb diaphragms), even if you maintain it well.
I have exactly the same chain saw,but it's painted yellow and named "Manpower".Had some problem with adjusting the mixture screw from the outside (it ran too rich on full speed) because of the rubber block being a little skewed.Hope to fix that in the spring.
Hey I am having a hard time getting the flywheel brake on my Husqvarna 5521 BBC Commercial Push Mower to work. Is there any ideas you recommend I can do to fix it
I cut the line at an angle and then feed it into the small hole. I then use pliers to pull the fuel line in and then out of the tank. The filter is a generic fuel filter.
Great video. I always drain the tank and run until engine stops. Minor problem, fuel hose I purchase is crap. Doesn't last before breaking. Can you recommend a supplier
I have a 20" 52cc blue max and this saw has cut a lot of wood and still runs great , the only problem I ever had was the fuel line disintegrated not long after buying it so I replaced it with a good fuel line and never had a problem since the second issue is the air filter sucks and letting a lot of dirt into carb . This saw needs an upgraded air filter.
This saw along with pretty much every other saw (Salem Master, Wemar, Coocher, Pinkaway, Dereal, Proyama etc) are all exact same saw, which is clone of Zenoah 52cc saw. Pretty you will fine all replacements parts from ebay under Zenoah part. They all run well except the chainbrake and air filter pretty much all suck. I have Coocher and Vehpro both say 62 cc, which are not but still decent saw if you take care of it.
Its a Zenoah (name of company) saw, they make this clone saws. They are all almost the same except some plastics shape and color. There are plenty of parts available for them. Anything from cylinders, pistons, mufflers, clutches and so on. For the money and non pro use its ok.
I leave fuel in my equipment during the off-season. Then no less often than once a month, I run it for 10 minutes or so. Keeps everything from drying out and it will start just fine the next season.
After a disaster-area grade severe storm in my area - one where I lost 6 trees - I bought a name brand electric chain saw. Yes it needs electricity, but I have 2 generators. Maybe that won't work in the remote outdoors, but it works in the suburbs.
have 2 bluemax at 99 dollars each 5 years now but I've only cut down and cut up about 25 big trees and hundreds of saplings knew i was going to dig it in dirt so cheapest i could find love these saws ill buy another if these ever quit lol
As a die hard gas powered equipment biggest fan I have to confess to using sawzall in place of chainsaw for last seven years with great results…I’m going to run both of my chainsaws this weekend hoping I’ll be forgiven.
With mine before Tru-fuel I always used Stihl/Husky oil and a lot of ethanol gas with no problem BUT I always brushed or blew the saw off, filed, gassed and oiled it up so it'd be ready for the next whateveritwas. Usually a mower got blown off but always fueled and oil checked before each use and maybe sharpened once mid-season. I think I'd pass on the blue saws but the ones of the bright color would be welcome and if it wasn't Stihl it'd be the other one. Blessings
this chainsaw is a very common model made in china, all pieces are available at a very low price but not in western countries. The best way is to purchase on a chinese website, and wait a month for the package. The name you read on this saw is only a sticker of the importator. According to the shape of this chainsaw, it could be a 45cc model, sharing parts with the 52 cc , 58 cc, 62 cc and 68cc if I remember it. It's a good chainsaw, a bit fragile, but all is available to repair, and easy to break free. The gasket of your air filter is not the good one; everybody loose it, the cost with europe shiping is about 2 euros for 10 gaskets.
Fuel concern which possibly affected diaphragm : even though the owner used canned fuel, remember, he was the second user. The first user was the tester at the factory and we don't know what fuel the tester used.
well if i had a Chainsaw i,d do the basics and in my view on that one it looks like a slightly older Shindaiwa copy and mostly using those older Husqvarna aka Husky engine parts from what i can probably picture in my mind etc.
I’ve never seen that brand of chainsaw before I can see why it would be hard to find parts for it I’ve seen so many different brands before buying a lesser known brand can make it cheaper depending on the brand but that’s also bad because parts will be scarce making it a bad idea to get a lesser known brand but it does look like a nice saw
@@HomeGaragechannel my favorite chainsaw is the old bow saw those things were extremely durable and powerful I don’t know if they still sell bow saws it would be awesome if you had one on your channel sometime if you could get your hands on one the old style saws were durable loud and powerful if I’m not mistaken some bow saws were 125cc but I’m not sure
In the equipment l use regularly l just leave fuel in it, but if l am not sure when l will use it next, or know it wont be for a while then i run it dry. I have worked on a bluemax like this one and the muffler has a catalytic element and the hot exhaust gasas would get the wood l was cutting smoldering.
I run my power equipment out of fuel before storing it for any extended amount of time. For people who don't use a chaisaw much, I would suggest a corded electric or battery powered saw so you don't have to deal with the problems of a gasoline powered version.
I hardly use it, I use canned fuel, and no, I don't prep it, which I admit would save me money as I take it in every fall because it won't start. As for the brand name, nope, I got burned with a powersmart snow blower last year, it's recognized brands names only.
No I don't I just put it up and next time I need it I use it never really had any problems with mine starting of course I have a old John Deere 50v so it it what it is
BlueMax is the same thing as Yard Dog….the differences is BlueMax is obviously blue and Yard Dog is green but the fuel ratios are different…..BlueMax ratio is 40:1 and Yard Dog is 25:1
Don't start a chainsaw like a lawnmower. It is much safer and easier to hold it firmly and allow gravity to assist. Standing on it and bending over to jerk the line is dangerous and exhausting.
I very very rarely use my chainsaw so I only run it on Stihl canned fuel and then empty the tank and run it dry before storage. So far the method has worked extremely well with no issues.
nice method
I don't even bother emptying the tank with pre-mix but I do cycle through my five saws quite often.
@@MVortex2 Yeah I wouldn't either except mine might sit for 2 years between uses. Just not much stuff to cut around here.

Same saw as the ryobi and new craftsman saw same manufacturer. Good little Saws if you take care of them. It is a copy of a zenoah/redmax 3800.

Hey bro what's up? Interesting looking chainsaw. For a cheap looking saw, it sounds and performs good.
you're right, it's not bad at all.
@@HomeGaragechannel it took me by surprise here.
52cc blue max where did you get that carb part?
you mean the metering diaphragm? I got it from amazn .
Hey i want to ask something. Turning left when tuning the carb was to Richen the mixture and turning right was to Lean it, right?
yes, think of it has a water hose valve on the house for your garden hose,
Great video. I always drain the tank and run until engine stops. Minor problem, fuel hose I purchase is crap. Doesn't last before breaking. Can you recommend a supplier
unfortunately no. But I would suggest looking at the reviews and read the comments and see what they have to say.

@@HomeGaragechannel yep too right mate.
I like to run my 2cycle equipment dry before storage. I haven't bought or repaired a clone saw yet.

bad design?

There's been issues with certain canned fuel brands. I'm betting that's Tru-Fuel 50:1.

The bluemax chainsaws are clones of redmax chainsaws. So you could probably use parts that fit redmax saws.
