Stihl, Husqvarna, or NEO-TEC Chainsaw Best For??? | NEO-TEC NS892 92CC
We got a new chainsaw for the Homestead. The NEOTEC NS892 Chainsaw seems to be just what we need for the homestead. After shopping around the big brands like Stihl, Husqvarna, and Echo, we soon understood a big saw can cost the price of a used car. I ran across NEO-TEC on Amazon and started looking at reviews; I was surprised. It shipped straight to the front door. Follow us along as we take this beast of a saw out of the box and put it to use. I am sure we will be felling trees for years with this saw. Stihl, Husqvarna, or NEO-TEC; Time will tell if we made the correct decision.

The correct number of chainsaws to own is defined by the equation n+1 where n=the number of chainsaws currently owned! It works with guitars too!!

I have the little top handle neotec and it’s a pretty solid little saw. For the saw and extended 3 year warranty it was like $150. So if it breaks down within 4 years they’ll end me a new one. Cant really beat that for the price.
Oh yeah love the sound of that saw reminds me of a saw my grandparents bought for the family to use it was a still saw can't remember the size but that saw was a beast I always loved running it as always enjoy your videos stay safe God bless and will keep you in my prayers

Looks great Tony, I just got my new Husky 395XP and today I will use it on some large logs averaging 42". The big maple log is 54" at the butt and 46" at the small end. For that I will mill it with my 64" bar on an Granberg Alaskan chain saw mill. Ron

Tony, I have a tractor similar in size to yours. I find that using a bucket tilted forward and held close to the ground will eliminate the offending forage around your project. I use this technique to clean up after felling and prior to a burn.

I just ordered a large tree felling bar spike kit for the saw so that I can have spikes on both side of the bar to make it easier to rock the saw while cutting through thick pieces of logs.

I've put together about a dozen of the farmertec ms660 clones. They're a pretty decent saw. I replaced the decompression buttons with a real Stihl part, because the farmertec button was garbage, but the rest of the parts were decent. I never had any complaints from the people I sold them to. The one I kept has lots of hours on an Alaskan mill and still works good.

@@TonysTractorAdventure I built the saws over a couple of years. Some of the first ones I built had bad cylinder castings, which farmertec replaced, and poorer quality plastic parts. The quality on each new batch of saws I ordered got better and better, to the point where the decompression button was the only issue. I stopped building them a couple of years ago. It wouldn't surprise me if the quality has improved even more since then and the problem with the decompression button has been fixed.
I've got this saw with a different bar just got a new chain and I am having trouble staring the saw. The choak option doesn't go all the way to the open choak position. The arborist who gave it to me was able to start it right up. Not sure what I may be doing wrong I've got 4 more chain saws I use on a regular basis. Thanks.

Farmertec make Stihl/Husq knockoffs that are similar to this one. I've looked at buying the real deal, but I haven't been able to justify the name brand price either. Looks like it was able to make wood glitter. Will be curious to see how long it lasts. I'll probably end up with a clone as well.
