That doesn't sound good - and this is with the 2511? I've been using on the ground with a MS192 and had no issues... But I don't expect I use it as much as you fellows.

 

 

Yeah Rob. In fairness on both jobs it's was typical chain flinging stuff: tangled hawthorn and conifer. Never happened with the 150 bar though.

 

I'll keep my eye on it. Hope it's just a coincidence as I really like the bar and chain over the Stihl equivalent otherwise.

Yeah Rob. In fairness on both jobs it's the only stuff I'm fit for: tangled hawthorn and conifer. Never happened with the 150 bar though.

Don't be so hard on yourself.

He was talking shite.

 

I'm surprised you didn't recognise that.

[Mark Bolam]

I'd had a few, obviously.

Don't beat yourself up. Glory hole pillow talk is just that.

My 360 TES has flung the chain off several times. The 2511 a few times too and it's on a stihl .43 chain and bar, always when doing hedge type works though.

It could just be the chain tension just needed tweaking up a tad. I know you checked before you used but I think the Sugi chain is more prone to stretch than the Stihl and you only need it just to come off correct tension to be flung on the twiggy stuff you were cutting.

 

Folk are divided on which set up they prefer - it seems some prefer the Stihl bar and chain - some the Sugi bar and chain.

 

I have found the Sugi is a lot better after it's first sharpen and is more aggressive in the cut. More 'chattery' than the Stihl. It's easier to sharpen.

 

But the Stihl is better cutting straight out of the box, smoother cutting, less stretch but a pain to sharpen.
