Stihl MS 341 chain

[18 stoner]

Seems he's not on his own though Jonny

back to school for you boy & dont use another chainsaw until you understand the full workings, its a poor show if you dont know what size file you need to match the chain

 

What he said ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

as you say it would seem so:001_huh:

The only 341 ive ever used, Took a 3/16s file very nicely and it cut like a laser

 

 

Just incase your wondering, lasers cut REALLY well

Here you go tuppy, 3/16 file for this;

 

its a 341 out of the box so to speak with the stihl chain still on it.

 

cheers

 

Oregon takes a larger file, hence;

 

7/32 I thought - tis on my 036 (Oregon 75LP chain)...

 

Very curious as to how you've been sharpening until now though:sneaky2:

[Alasdair]

cheers for the replies guys,

 

i know i should now all this stuff but im starting to forget alot of the stuff i done at college because im not working with it everyday,

 

i know that probably sounds like a really bad excuse but its the truth, think im going to have to start reading up on everything again.

 

cheers for the help guys

 

should have known i would have got slatted for asking but i know you guys are a big bunch of friendly folks and will help out while slatting me.

Not sure about the 341 but the 340 was at the cross-over point where less powerful saws used .325 chain and more powerful ones used 3/8, so you could choose which pitch chain to run.

 

Stihl .325 uses 4.8mm or 3/16"

Stihl 3/8 uses 5.2mm or 13/64"

Oregon 3/8" uses 5.5mm or 7/32"

 

Might all sound a bit pedantic but it is the difference between scraping, gouging or cutting just right!

 

Regards
