how about these ones?? looks good.

 

That looks suspiciously like the AmPro one! In which case it's a good 'un.

And I note it has Dualco moulded into it, so:

They don't, unless you started doing it - then you have to follow up.

 

What needs to be greased now and then (but not weekly as the manual says) is the clutch bearing - and that is really easy on the Husky saws, with the grease gun, and the hole in the end of the crankshaft.

I never had an issue with the stock ones, except that it took some time to figure out how to refill them....

 

Hi

 

Could that be attributable to the significant number of 261 clutch bearing problems? being as Stihl dont advise greasing. Ive decided to swap my Stihl clutch bearing annually & grease it as per the Husqvarna advice.

 

Just a thought

Where do you go to get a gun that works,mine is pants,skiddy pants too.

Never greased one yet. Grease collects all kinds of crap that will bugger the sprocket unless you re-grease and shove out the old every time you re-fuel.

But how does it get in there ? Please explain as I can't see why more dirt should get in just because grease is present.

The issue is that the dirt sticks to the grease, I assume.

You may well do the right thing, and don't really understand why they don't advice the users to grease the clutch bearing now and then....

 

Maybe they like to sell parts?
