Thread: Stihl Chainsaw

Sounds like 261 it is then. Will be fine for what you are doing, especially if you have access to the bigger saw. That's the reason I ended up with the 361 - figured it would be a 'do everything' saw but the 260 is just so damn good at what it does that I've not been able to put it down. I've upgraded the oiler in it with an adjustable setup off a crashed saw which is a very good improvement when using the short bar - it was an oilslick maker that would make exxon blush with the automatic fixed flow oiler on it. I might look to rebuild that at some stage but will need everything to do it (slug/jug/carb/starter/exhaust/covers/gaskets plus some screws etc) so it's not on the urgent pile.
