Husqvarna 560xp problems

[adw]

Got them in the 80s Stubby, they work really well I hadone hundreds of clutch Spring replacements two shoe three shoe.

Ah...80s Britain, do you find they work better with a bit of Rick Astley going in the background😉 Glad to see my dating was bang on!

I had Abba on my 8 track in an 850 mini.

Still having problems with the saw unfortunately folks. The oil seems to be coming through fine though the chain is still dry as a bone when attached. Clutch cover bolts still loosening themselves and then clutch cover falling off along with bar and chain which is awfully dangerous... Bit out of depth with this one, already took it to the repair shop and they claimed to fix it which they haven't. Any ideas?

Where are you in the country? People might be able to suggest a better place to have the work done.

How long were you using techshite bars before you had problems Stubby? I've only used the chainsaw twice and each time the bar chain and clutch cover fell off or went very loose. The first bar I changed as it burned out from no oil reaching the chain, did you encounter that too? Same problems with new bar too which is as you know also a techshite

Bar nuts coming loose is a vibration issue surely, assuming they were tightened adiquatly in the first place, if we go back to basics, free run the saw on an appropriate surface, is there a line of oil visible left on the floor? if not it is just not oiling sir, did you check all the things suggested in this thread?

Bar nuts all tightened correctly and oil coming out with no issues though chain still seems very dry. Everything else tried as suggested
