Box of goodies arrived..

 

 

All fitted.

 

 

Just need to find the right bar now, but seems what i want is only available in North America.

 

What do you want ?  Think I have a little used Oregon sprocket nose  .404 36" if you want to make me an offer .

36" .404 but Husqvarna branded, the second saw is a display one, so i want that exact bar.

 

The other one runs a 36" .404 Oregon bar. 🙂

Looking forward to all the comments on all this being useless and unneccessary. 😛

 

My T525 never came with bumper spikes for some reason, although they're meant to come with them in the box. The nice people at L&S Engineers sent me a set:

 

 

Tah-dah! I love this saw, it's a little powerhouse!

 

 

Then i wanted to fit auto-return kill switches to my 390, 395 and 3120. These are T540 kill switches. The 390 is a direct fit as both use spade terminals, but the 395 and 3120 use a spade and a ring terminal on the kill switch. You can either cut the ring off the wire and crimp on a spade terminal or open them up and swap over the contacts:

 

 

The inner gubbins are interchangeable so there's no issue swapping the ring contact into the 540 switch.

 

 

And fitted into the 395, looks exactly the same but you can't forget and leave it in the off position.

Would the world come to an end if you left it in the off position ?

Probably the world would stop turning, or the north and south poles would invert.

Yes! My world! No, i'm just pedantic, picky and have nothing better to do while job hunting.

 

No different to my full wraps, big felling dogs, display saw.

 

I'm just a picky person and i wanted the auto-return switches.

Was expecting you to point out how useless my 525's bumper spike is! 😛

 

They all sit on a shelf drained down and unused now anyway. ☹
