Longer bar studs?

You might have to " spot " the holes through with a drill . I think its the same cover on your saw . Note the 562 cover is different in that the outer dawg mounting holes are further apart ( to account for the 3/8th running gear . Sooo if you buy a new set of dawgs get them for a 560 not a 562 . I think !

Cheers Stubby, will have a check tomorrow.

 

Could you possibly let me know centre to centre on yours? Will measure it up tomorrow.

 

Ps, belly pan is to protect the under side, as most of the stuff I'm doing is at home, with no "soft or Forrest" areas to put it down when moving shit about.

 

Want to take care of an expense, which isn't a daily work tool.

The simple answer is no there is no longer bar bolt readily available, somthing like the 266 bar bolt would be slightly longer, however you will have to reduce the diameter of the shank as it will be slightly too big to fit the  existing hole in the crankcase.

I would say they are aftermarket dawgs/spikes and not OEM hence the problems . Honestly they are of no advantage on a 50-60cc saw , even if the bar studs were long enough . That size saw would be used for felling and snedding out trees maybe a max of 2x bar lenght . Big dawgs like that shorten your effective bar lenght and get in the way when snedding .  They are " soft wood dawgs ( thick chunky bark ) and suitable for saws of 70cc and upwards .  If you want to " pimp " your saw then go for it . If you want a tool to do the job keep the standard dawgs , get the outer one if you want ( as on mine ) but standard lenght and fitting . just me .
