Lightened My Load

Got around to getting a 25" ES Light bar for the 661 today. No time today to stick it in wood but tomorrow.....

 

Yawner was just askin’ about those bars.

 

Much lighter ths the standard ES bar, but like all things Stilh, they don't come cheap!

 

So the load was in your wallet and this bar lightened that. Got it.

 

Stihl bars är expesive, but they last long

 

How much that 25" cost? I can't find one. Checked several dealers.

 

Put a 20" on my 400 just over a month ago and have had a 25" on order for the 500 for about a month. Difficult to get around here.

 

With tax $159.89

This was the only dealer around me that had it in stock. They also have the light in 32" and 36"

 

Dang Ralphie that's sure a clean saw !!

 

Sons has a 25" ES light on his 661C Magnum.
Had to replace it once. Had a bad pinch, and one rail side split.
Not the bars fault.
Runs a 36 as well.

 

Any of you 661 guys wish you had more oil volume ?
Mine is a tad to stingy for my tastes.

 

Very nice Ralphie. I have one of those bars on a MS 460.

 

Nice looking saw and bar. Did you try cutting the countertop with it???
We want pics of it in action too.

 

Made me go look at the picture again.

 

Ouch! Ill carry around the $160...and the heavier normal bar!

 

Yep, me too.

 

Cheapskate.

 

Did you depress the pin so you can turn to max oil? I have a 28” bar on mine and it oil’s fine after pushing in the pin and turning it all the way up.

 

You appear to be talking to yourself my friend!!

 

Well that's not the first time, usually get the answer I want that way.
