this is the first Pink chainsaw i have ever seen

Never been a fan of all this over the top safety bollocks. I chainsaw in dark with my cock and biceps out. Never had any trouble.

@Tazza17 me to, sometimes i get a stuffed squirrel and shove it up my ass too

@janwiedemeijer 1st pink 1 I seen too,but pretty fitting for a Stihl.

@missnishnash .. I started running saws at 16 back in 1979.. bucked cedar blocks for a couple of years, then got into falling.. I fell timber on the coast of BC until 2003.. I've done clear cut falling, selective falling, right of way falling, and corridor falling.. the last few years of my career I was bullbucker for a crew of 8..

how many trees have I fallen in 22 years? not sure but it's in the tens of thousands..

@missnishnash keep the change…

Sound like a typical UK instructor. Lots of irrelevant padding out.

don't listen to them – this is a very useful and helpful video – thanks very much for your information and advice – excellent

If your saw is cutting crooked, it is usually due to having run the chain too loose and the chain has caused the bar to no longer be flat along the chain channel It can be resolved by taking a flat file and leveling the rails on the chain channel until they are perfectly flat and perpendicular to the bar (90 degrees).

I own a sawmill so I do quite a bit of log sawing and tree felling. I don't own a chain file. I do all my sharpening on the bench with a nice chain grinder. Just carry extra chains with you. If your chain is cutting crooked then it may be that one side has less tooth left than the other. You can eyeball them or put a caliper on them. You gotta keep the teeth the same size. That's another good reason to use the bench grinder — consistency. Nice vid.
