Before 2000, STIHL chainsaw model numbers began with a 0. For example, STIHL carried 017 and 025 model chainsaws. This changed around 2000 when they added MS to the beginning and moved the 0 to the end. The 017 became MS 170, 025 became MS 250, and so on. We're assuming that it, combined with the first number, makes up a model number. I picked up a used Stihl (70/80's) Farm Boss 041 Chainsaw. Looks very clean for older one but.fires up and only can keep running about 30 sec. It evebtually loads up with gas and dies! If I keep air cleaner off so carb is completely exposed.seems to run slightly better and longer.

Stihl 028 Chainsaw

Even though the Stihl 028 chainsaw was first introduced over four decades ago it remains a really popular saw.

It’s renowned for being a tough, virtually bullet proof and easy to use chainsaw.

Of course because of it’s venerable age it does lack some of the more modern technical and safety features of Stihl chainsaws.

The Stihl 028 was first introduced around 1977 and many of these saws have had very long, productive lives.

Who is the Stihl 028 Suitable For?

A well maintained Stihl 028 is the perfect chainsaw if you are looking for an easy to use saw. It’s a perfect homeowner saw for cutting firewood or general property maintenance.

Stihl 028 Chainsaw Features

The model was so popular that Stihl revamped it more than once. Improvements were made to replace the mechanical points ignition and add anti-vibration mounts.

The power head is largely constructed from metal alloy so the 028 is a good few pounds heavier than an equivalent modern saw. It might be a little overweight by modern standards but at 12.6 lbs the 028 is still light enough for anyone to use easily.

Stihl 028 Availability and Spares

Be aware that saws purchased before 1986 are not covered by the Stihl lifetime warranty on ignition parts that Stihl operated from 1986 until 2003.

Used 028’s are still widely available on Ebay and other classified advertising sites.

Features

Standard features

  • Pre-separation air filtration system

    The innovative long-life air filter system greatly extends the service life of the filter. Air routing removes larger particles of dirt, meaning the actual filter has less to do. So the saw can be used for longer without having to clean the filter.

  • Decompression valve

    The decompression valve is part of the easy start-system. The valve should be pressed before starting in order to reduce the compression pressure when starting, as well as the effort needed to pull the starter rope. The decompression valve is semi-automatic, meaning that it must be pressed manually before starting, but then closes automatically.

  • Advanced combustion technology

    Four overflow channels swirl the fuel-air mix before ignition, allowing for optimum combustion and highly efficient performance. The result: lower consumption and high torque across a broad rpm range.

  • STIHL anti-vibration system

    Intense vibration at the handles of power tools can lead to longer-term effects of blood vessels in the hands and arms. STIHL have therefore developed an effective anti-vibration system where by the oscillations from the machines engine are dampened which significantly reduces vibrations at the handles.

  • Compensator

    This controller in the carburettor prevents the fuel-air mixture getting richer as the air filter becomes clogged. The correct quantity of fuel is delivered to the carburettor depending on the quantity of air passing through the air filter. This keeps the fuel/air ratio in the combustion mixture constant and hence also the engine power. The filter doesn't need to be cleaned until an appreciable drop in power occurs.

  • Controlled-delivery oil pump

    The exact chain oil output can be adjusted maunally for varying conditions, allowing for a reduction of up to 50%.

  • Single-lever master control

    All important functions such as start, choke, throttle and stop are operated via a single lever.

  • Side-mounted chain tensioning

    The tensioning screw is located on the side of the chain saw through the sprocket cover. Chain side tensioning allows the saw chain to be retensioned effortlessly, avoiding any contact with the sharp chain.

  • STIHL Ematic-System

    The Ematic chain lubrication system ensures pinpoint lubrication of the saw chain links and guide bar rails. When used with STIHL OILOMATIC saw chain, it will provide maximum lubrication, longer wear and less oil consumption than conventional methods of chain lubrication. The Ematic system can reduce bar oil consumption up to 50%.

  • Tool free fuel caps

    Special caps on the fuel and oil tanks are designed for easy opening and locking without the need for tools.

Additional features

  • STIHL ElastoStart

    STIHL ElastoStart reduces the shock caused by the compression of the engine during starting. The compression shock is taken away from the users joints and muscles through a spring or rubber element in the starter handle.
