Official ringtone of US forest service

Cody, you should have saved this one for April 1st.

Wow, not only does he perform a miracle by starting the chainsaw that way. He also has a Bluetooth chainsaw! Incredible!😂😂😂

I tried this and all it did was whip my tip with that cord candle 😂

That’s gotta be the newest Cali compliant zero emissions chainsaw

This was good bud. You had me questioning life for a minute.

Love how smoothly that thing runs for a 461. Not even a wiggle

Some engineer over at still "wait...how have you been starting them? Did you read the manual?"

I’m too gullible for videos like this. Stop playing with my emotions 😅

It runs so much smoother like that. Zero emissions also.😅

Next week he'll show us how to push start a lawn mower 😊

He's doing extra work- if you download the official app you can start the saw with the electric starter instead of using the cord. Also, if you get the optional 27" bar you can fold it up to fit in tight spaces.

That must be the new smokeless/ bluetooth model chainsaw from stihl...

Certified Stihl chainsaw technician here, I knew this is impossible, yet still had a small....wait...what...moment until you turned it off with your phone. You almost had me.

That's effing funny dude! The cellphone killswitch omg

As soon as you pulled your phone out I was like ok he knows

How to troll your US forestry comrades into thinking you can start a chainsaw while using the release spring to suck the cable in.

When the U.S Forest Service discovers new superpowers.

Cody, the fact that you added in the chain saw noise in post but then still pretended to turn it off on you phone. Ahahahah 😂 well done, chefs kiss.

Power cord.. this is gold.

You forgot to mention that the saw runs in reverse when you start it this way.

You had me at "power cord"

No one ever started a chainsaw without revving it 2-1/2 times before killing it. I knew right then my man.

Timing was impeccable

“Had us in the first half not gonna lie”

Straight to the point, good advice. Best on KZfaq.

As I said before, I’m one of your other videos I’m so glad I found you. And I love that you call us beloved. Thank you friend.

the ending, good one

I have a love hate-relation with my chainsaws. Sometimes it requires quite a bit of swearing to get the thing to start and sometimes they are dirty, wet and full of resin but they start immediately. I tell you, these things are what I point at when young lads talk to me about troubles with their girlfriend. There is absolutely zero point trying to figure them out, they'll just do completely illogical things and drive you crazy

Well Stihl does actually make an option on their smaller saws that has a rewind that helps people start the saw. You actually do just that. Pull it all the way up then let go. ALSO IMPORTANT: If you try to start the saw like a normal saw, you will wreck the special rewind and it will become a boat anchor until fixed.

lol Ilove the "well Ill be damned!" expression xD

For this clock spring drop trick to work you have to make sure you mix the gas into the oil not oil into the gas.

He's making fun of the video that said this would work. Just added the engine noise in post 😅

I LOVE that they're men like you in this world. You sir make me home when I'm so far away from my brothers & nephews that i love dearly! I hope you see this comment because I mean this with all of my heart💪❤️

That’s possible, because when you pull the string, it twists a piece of metal which passes by a magnet inducing, a current inside the spark plug, starting the ignition process to drive the chainsaw

_"Momma told me it was my magic saw."_

Make sure its not running backwards! 2 strokes can do that

“Professional homeowner” I didn’t know a title like this existed, but It’ll be my title one day

In theory any modern pull start engine can be started in a similar fashion but its good to know the you dont actually need the strength required to even lift a chainsaw to seriously injure yourself with it

I need the official US Forest Service chainsaw app!

Should add a remote starter

Hilarious! Good one Cody! 🤣😂

Idk who you are. Idk where you came from. Idk why you provide us with what you do. But if you aren't a government agent then I appreciate your service to the public.

If you asked how he turned it off with his phone, please don’t ever run a chainsaw. The life you save may be your own.

Well I learned two things. I didn't know you could cut it off with your cellphone. Can you tell it to go cut a tree too?

When I saw it first time - died laughing...

Seems relatively safe long as you do a complete check but dont think a saw should be started in a floating position in any case. Ground or between the legs.

And that's how it's done. Lol. Had me till the end.

Game changer, only if Stihl has conquered the problem with their carburetors after they’ve been sitting a while..

The look of surprise was hilarious.

This is one of my fav channels. Sending best wishes from the uk.

I must admit you had me there for a moment! 😂😂

Nick I hope you’re watching 😁

I know some of them you can’t do it, but my grandpa bought a steel that he could use because he was getting weaker as he got older. And let me tell you that was the smoothest cranking chainsaw I’ve ever seen. You could literally barely like jerk like small little pools and it would like build up something in there and crank it. It’s hard to explain unless you’ve seen it before but like say you give it a little porn don’t start instantly sometimes like within a half a second would start up after you’ve already let go. It was somehow take the fours from your pool and like put it into something to help crank it. But I’ve never seen a chainsaw that easy to crank. With that little force, and it was made to do it. It wasn’t just a normal one.

Haaaa got me. I was confused and amazed for like 3 seconds. Then I realized you were being a smartass. Have a great day Sir.

Fackin got me again! That's a real knee slapper

😂😂😂😂 I love this man

Lol you had me going for a second

THIS is the Wranglerstar I love and the channel that my brother loved! Chainsaws and woodworking!

It is weird that new chainsaws these days do have a micro computer in them. You have to prime start and then let sit idle for 5 minutes before first use. The computer calibrates… something. It’s interesting but seems maybe like something a mechanic can’t fix easily without a ton of hassle. I like my older stihls and ye old Echo

That was one of the funniest videos I have ever watched. I literally have tears in my eyes from laughing so damn hard. Thanks, Cody.

I've been starting mine via Bluetooth and Wi-Fi for the past couple of years I thought that was a normal thing. Nothing like a nice warmed up saw😂

Cody you always get me with the tricks lol I’m usually good at telling if something is fake.

Your smile is adorable!!!! Beloved!!! Keep up these videos!!!

Few days ago I learned a very valuable lesson from a chainsaw, never become complacent 😬

I love your work; I need to do my own version of this hack

I heard if you replace the flux capacitor it’ll start even easier.

Imagine if Leatherface ever did that lmao

The chainsaw track on Bluetooth, classic 😂 editing technique

My daughter had colic when she was an infant. I discovered the white noise from the chain saw squelched her constant screaming. I later switched to a hair dryer due to the smoke in the house. True story. Back in 2001 flip phones were state of at. I actually have a video with a hair dryer. She instantly shuts up.

As a Lieutenant, I will pass this simple trick to all my truck-mates.

A lady used to ask me about what chainsaws have automatic start. I told her the electric saw is the only one that starts automatically, but they weren't very good back then. Battery saws have improved vastly in the last five years. I would confidently recommend a battery saw for homeowners who struggle with small engines. No electric saw can replace a real felling saw. We are at least ten years away from that being a possibility.

Can't believe you didn't know this, works every time.

This will only work if the motor is warm from use, but once the saw is warm, you can just as easily start it by pulling the cord only 6 inches.

Best on You Tube. Can’t help but grin and says, ‘now turn it off’. Pulls his phone and shuts it off.

Please dont mess with me like this...had me questioning all of reality.

I can really appreciate the shit-eating grin when you turn the saw off with your phone. That’s awesome!

That gave me a good chuckle. Seriously though having a starter from a wound up spring powered by a ratcheting pull cord is a great invention.

Uses magic to shut off his chainsaw maybe Bluetooth

I'm so glad to see that the comments aren't full of fools. There is hope for humanity.

Ha yeah! I know it is not anywhere in the owners manual, or stihl dealership. I actually had a very loose grip on the pull start and I Always pull the pull start chord all the way out 1st you know and then I let it back in slowly and then it usually every time it will pull start but this way you're showing us I did on accident Always pull the pull start chord all the way out 1st you know and then I let it back in slowly and then it usually every time it will pull start but this way you're showing us, I did on accident😮 And figured out the easy way how to start a saw without standing on a ladder or being in an awkward position it's very simple, very easy, and it is very easy up on a ladder, And/or Any uncomfortable position that involves a ladder or some sort of limb climbing from the ground just a few feet to achieve the maximum goal it helped out very easily and it really kind of got me a raise that was over looked, and way over due l. just by being able to pull start our [500i]off as I'm running up to the ladder to hand it to the boss man. So I guess it is not a fluke.🙂 and thank you for your messages/ "shorts" I really like the content and the execution of the content!. You really dummy it up in a very easy to understand way and your little helpful hints are very helpful so I Appreciate what you do and thank you and I look forward to me anymore for me I appreciate it

I always wondered if this worked but I've never tried it

It was awesome how he texted the US Forest Service to turn off his saw

Guys, come on. This is a brand new saw. You guys don't understand that these are Bluetooth compatible?!?! Stihl's now making them with remote start and stop, and super advanced safety features!

Plot twist.. It has a starter that goes by the app that should have been bypassed by what he was doing.. the real surprise was that..

You mean I've been yankin' on these pull cords for years and thats all I had to do?! I'm gonna have to try this on my old saw.

You turned it off with your phone?

Learn something new every day. Impressive!

💚💚💚 this man is. Treasure! I mean.. he installed bluetooth 5.3 into his stihl semi-pro saw!

Chainsaws in Ohio be like:

well i know what im doin this weekend

First of all, that isn't a 500i, second thing, if you know how a chainsaw work, you know this can't function

Y'all " you almost got me" people, without a doubt, got got!!!!!

The engine isn't running.... some people in the comments don't notice this... lol

I'm awesome for being 1st

So fking hilarious 😂 😃 😄

Ya, Stihl stole that Idea from Husqvarna ! , 😂😂😂😂😂 ! , They've been doing this for Year's ! , 😂😂😂😂😂 !

Its because its a kinetic starter the impact of the pulling and fraction is what makes the tool start like that your just giving one really good hit to your starting assembly and it has to be well taken care of to do that nice saw but id take a look at your bar it might be a little dented

That's pritty amazing _[I wouldn't have believed it either]_ I grew up cutting wood in the North-Country
