The joncutter is about the best version of this clone I've found. I havent done anything but port/add a bigger carb to mine, nothing has broke, the plastic is much better on it than the other clones I've seen and I own 4 different ones lol. My supmix runs as good as the joncutter but the plastic was total crap, I didnt trust the recoil at all, I swapped it out with plastic off a blown up saw I had. My brother ran mine and wanted one, so we bought a proyamma. I dont recommend the proyamma, it has the worst 45cc cylinder they make but some guys are shipped 54.5cc ones which run good so some reviews are good. I have a 61.5cc clone. It was sold as a timberpro6150. It's 48mm bore with a 34mm stroke. It was slower than the 54.5cc joncutter 5800. I think they gave up on the 6200(61.5cc) version once they clued in they're slower. It has a ton of squish/low compression, a non windowed piston and side feeding transfers so it sucks lol. I'm going to try a windowed stihl 036 piston in it to try to make it faster than the smaller saws. I have everything I need to do this but have been busy. The stihl piston is 5mm taller but the ring ends are in the right places, the pin is the same size and the skirts fit nice. I'm going to put a 3mm spacer under the cylinder to get it to fit then machine the band or piston for the other 1mm.

Current Troy Bilt, craftsman and Remington are all Chinese made for MTD, the parent company of all three.

I have taken broken recoil springs that were broken at one end or the other. I heat the broken end red hot, bend it like the original bend and let it cool slowly.

While all based off the same design I have found many variations in quality with different makers. I think they are a lot of fun and while you have to search for parts a little, it isnt really too hard overall. Great Video

When it comes to the Jon Cutter 2500 top handle saws, they are clones of the Zenoah g2500. That design was a collaboration between Zenoah and Red Max. I've had to order parts for my Jon Cutter 2500 by looking up Zenoah g2500 part numbers and ordering the Zenoah parts. Jon Cutter, NeoTec, Salem Master, and a ton of other Chinese brands have all cloned that design. The Zenoah g5000's parts are all interchangeable on the Wemars, Craftsman, Jon Cutter, Salem Master, and many other Chinese companies. If you need parts for these two clones, Zenoah parts and part numbers are the way to go. It's easy to do. I've had to do it.

I bought the spring, recoil and starter rope together for $7.49 Aust delivered. Still had to bore out a small section (.5mm) of the recoil starter as it’s a stepped fit. It works well now.

I Just bought a china brush cutter no name, luckily Is an old Mitsubishi exact clone, i verified searching photos of the engine block, cylinder, exhaust, recoil assembly and others spare parts, identifying the original machine before you buy the clone Is the best thing to do to be sure to have parts and an idea of the reliability acheivable, if you are mechanically inclined you can get a good machine for very cheap! It may need some minor work but Is worth It and fun

I have a DeReal 6220F. It's been OK - A good saw to throw on the quad or Jeep. I let my son use it when he was younger and interested in helping dad cut wood. I will say, these saws seem to come with a factory muffler mod and with a hand filed .325 chain, hold their own with my Farm & Ranch versions of Stihl and Husky - of course until the pull rope breaks. It's actually more than I expected for $120.00 though. Thanks for the video!

People with shoulder problems appreciate the easy pull start as do people with cervical spine problems.

I just want to know if the piston touches the cylinder wall in Chinese saws too.....

This is why these saws find their way into the local land fill. Most people who buy these saws don't have the expertise to fix them. It looks like a spring from a Poulan 3300, or similar, would work. I've taken a few apart and rewinding the spring is not too difficult once you learn a few tricks. You probably have a Poulan starter you could tear apart and try. I guarantee it won't take 4 weeks! You can also just buy the spring already wound.

Sawzilla sells a tool to rewind recoil spring.

It’s a red max g5000 made by zenoah until 2007 when bought by husqvarna

Chinese clones are great if you have other saws to use while you wait 4 weeks for the wrong part. If you really don't need a chainsaw, I would recommend the Chinese ones.

Always scary dealing with them springs, interesting when 1 goes all springy lol.

That spring looks like an old chevy hood hinge

It's challenging to get right parts to fix a Chinese clone that's for sure.

Huskvarna bouoght redmaX/Zenoah powersaw division tyo get the strato technicals and retired the line. Some of the smaller Husky saws are/were Redmax designs. k

Ya Husqvarna owns Zenoah sooo if you want to get really technical it's a Husqvarna clone

The recoils on these are always the weak point.. Aliexpress sells a all metal setup, those wemars are slick looking wish we had those here in the frozen wasteland. My supmix saws are both 54.5, marketed a 62, but they do make the big bore 48mm, which is 61.5.. Having said that my proyama "62cc" is 49.3...fuck I gave myself a headache

There’s a H5.1mm version of that spring

That spring looks like the starter assist spring, don't know what it fits but I've fixed some blowers with a broken starter assist spring.

Also on a side note you can eleminate the ez start with JB weld

DEREAL brand as well. I have one and ported it. It runs damn good.

JUNK, The End.

Je suis un fan de tes vidéo regarde tous se que je peux

I've had a Chinese copy at home for years, it doesn't matter which manufacturer it is, and I'm waiting for one of my friends or relatives to come and borrow the saw. I give him the unopened box and tell him to do whatever he wants, but when he returns it, he has to work. I've already done it twice. I got the same one back, but in a new package. I once received a half assembled one without gas in the tank and it is waiting for the next victim.

Check it against a neotec NCS6200. Looks like it should fit.

Parts tree has parts for the MTD versions. At least the Troy Bilt version anyway.

Is there any gains in porting them? Could be fun as a fist porting experience, and not have the fear of ruining a proper saw ? 👌

Unless the original spring is broken somewhere other than the ends, you should still be able to use it. As others have said, use heat, get it glowing hot before bending and it shouldn't break. Sometimes the parts search is part of the "clone" fun, sometimes it makes you wanna rip your hair out🤬😅

In Mexico i can get my hands on all this china stuff but not on any oem stuff

There also badged as a Huyosen sold by Walmart they also sell a pro version which is a 65 cc I think

How To Get The Most Joy Out Of Your Chinese Saw: 1)Place saw outdoors on bare dirt or paved surface. 2)Dowse entire saw liberally with gasoline. 3)Light a match and toss at saw. 4)Ensure that saw is fully consumed before attempting to dowse flames. This will improve your life 1000% BONUS: Go out and buy an Echo, Husqvarna or Stihl. You will now ENJOY paying the higher price. WARNING: Do NOT attempt to repair your Chinese saw- it may actually somewhat work and prolong your misery. If You Have Not Bought A Chinese Saw: See above, and immediately go out and buy an Echo, Stihl or Husqvarna. It will save you money because you will not waste $100-$250 on a Chinese saw. Disclaimer: All of the above does not apply if you are a comedian- as Chinese saws can be a rich source of material for you.

IME, if you have the part in hand you can compare pics on aliexpress and get what you need. But it’s all a crapshoot because there are no parts numbers to match. Have had good luck with eBay and carb/rebuild kits (ignition etc). ps you should have ordered the one for the 62cc saw you dummy! 😂 Psps you gotta wind the recoil spring don’t you?

👍🆙BigGuy

Salem master has way better filter

Good Day

😮

If people keep buying these Chinese junk saws, that’s all that will be left and guys that actually need a chainsaw to make a living will be left with nothing. There is an old say, what we except is what we will receive. Nobody needs a saw bad enough that they afford a real saw. I’d buy 4 samurai handsaws (or one silky) before I bought a junk chainsaw because 20 years from now you’ll still be using the handsaws. Not a knock on guys that pay for Chinese junk, it’s just the reality unfortunately. And we did it to ourselves. What’s the other saying, we have seen the enemy and the enemy is ourselves 🤷🏽‍♂️

It’s actually a husky 372 parts will fit that saw
