yes
so
oh
have you been a good boy father christmas
wow so much you're welcome earlier thank you so much
what a lovely young boy he wasn't it
let's get rid of that put these up here
so father christmas seemed like a good guy didn't he and he's delivered us a nice parcel
i wonder what it is should we have a look how you get into it they put lots of tape on this
fine oh it's actually sideways there we go typical delivery drivers can't
keep anything upright it is this is still ms-881 we've been waiting for this for ages
and we're especially delivered by father christmas so aren't we lucky get rid of this so we thought
we'd do a bit of an unboxing video something of this side and this magnitude and of this
pure powerful machine i'll be honest we've already had a little sneak peek in the box but we haven't
got it out yet so you're sharing this with us as we're going to see it now get this all together
and see what comes in the box see what it's all like we've also got an ms880 out the back so we'll
bring that in and put them up against each other and see um which which one looks the best i have
a feeling which one it might be but anyway let's get it opened up so inside the old box
there's a bloody big chainsaw in there and leave your hand to get us out
right
look at that what else we got a sandwich bag and a toffee spanner
a delivery note it's always handy to talk about now a manual so there we are look at her no i
don't put that anymore get rid of that so we've got our still ms-881 but i think there's a big
bit missing here father christmas seems to have forgotten to give us our bar and jane bear with
is that father christmas dispatch department
excellent you seem to forgotten part of my delivery yes it is james how did you know that
yeah brilliant fantastic thank you you can see where it is
bloody delivery drivers even father christmas camping at the start
you've forgotten to give me the bar and chain
i'm back that was lucky right open this up what do you reckon it is joking as a big gun or a bar
and chain for a chainsaw i don't know i'm not very good at opening presents don't get them very often
for me our bin's now full of wrapping paper and we've got a big orange dong no sorry scabbard
big long orange scabbard a bar which is we've got the 36 inch long bar there we go
and a bloody great big 404 chain look at that there we go so we wrap it together undo these
beauties on the side captive nuts oh yeah it's got a locating pin in the bottom isn't it there we are
see i'm going to put them in your pocket they stay on the stay on the clutch cover now look
like that slide out my
look at that roll-o-matic
chainsaw bar put my box in get rid of that quite lumpy thing isn't it slide on the old bar
look at that it's all good get the old chain out the box 404 chain how many drive links is that
108 drive links or 404 so it's 1.6 mil there's a big old chain look at
that which way does it go around anyone know slide that one up in there like so there we go
obviously you should be wearing gloves to do this because
everybody wears gloves when they put a chainsaw together don't they do them up a little bit
just finger tight i'm gonna need my special steel tools they supplied us and you know what they're
not gonna open that bag i got flathead all right feel the meat on the end of that there we are
we've got all right eight one together
if you've seen that ms-170 video we've done a few weeks ago i held the 170 up in the air
you know at the end of the video to show how cool it was i don't think i'm gonna be able to do it
with this one maybe two-handed but not one-handed right so what we've got we've got an msa81 very
similar to the ms80 all the stats are pretty much the same as the old saw the only main difference
is that the 880 was a two-stroke engine where this is now a two mix engine the reason they've done
that is due to emissions and all that jazz but they've also produced a beautiful looking machine
everything is very very similar so even if i pop the old air cleaner off the back
you'll see that that looks very very similar to 880 in actual fact i think it's even the same
filter i'd have to check the part numbers that is all pretty much all the same whether the parts fit
as they do on the other ones i don't know i don't know if the 881 parts will fit onto the 880 or not
um the only other main difference is you've got the diagnostic port on this one so you can plug a
computer into it check how many hours it's done you know so if a dealer's serviced it and then
the customers used it for so many hours and then they want to plug it back in again say oh my saw
and it failed in 10 minutes and you plug it in it's done 20 hours then it's nice to have
that accessibility to be able to do that but pop that one back on again but yeah other than design
and obviously a completely different engine in it
it's pretty much the same as a 880. let's go and get the 880 in a minute bear with me
i got another big weapon
let's get rid of these orange dongs a minute
so 36 on there looks about it pop them down there on the way but yeah as you can see there's a great
deal of differences on it it's looking like the same chain break handle same wrap around handle
the exhaust even looks the same but whether that's the same on the inside or not i don't know
dog and teeth all look the same no captive nuts on the old 880 though is there so yeah definitely
captive nuts on the 881 so yeah everything looks very very similar on the sauce obviously
they're still doing these though they're still doing these cats one day they'll change that
i really do hope still change that one day i've never liked them never have but there we are and i
think there'll be a lot of people out there who'll agree with me they don't like those cats mr still
there we go it's my moan over and done with i don't yes everything's a little bit different here
obviously different back cover on the air filter housing and everything there but
everything's looking pretty much the same certainly looks posh doesn't it
so there we have it guys the new still ms-881 it's a beautiful looking saw it's got some extra little
benefits on it but the real test is going to be using it and well we've got the 880 and we've
got this saw so i think it's it would be silly not to put it through some wood to see what it can do
so anyway we've managed to get hold of some really big chunky bits of wood so we're going to put them
through some pretty decent timber for you to be able to watch that we're going to need you to
be able to click subscribe so you can watch all of our other videos there's all loads of videos
on there already but we're going to be doing a load more so yeah please click subscribe if
you can also like us on facebook and follow us on instagram that would also be great because you can
