Can someone tell me what model this old husky is please.

I know it's fairly old because it has points.

Someone has nicked the petrol pipe from it so I need to get another but it looks like it should have a grommit to seal where it comes out of the tank.

Without knowing the model number it is difficult to find one.

Possibly a 180S Model Profile: 180S

That looks very similar, the only difference I can see is the handle seems to be separate and bolted on, on the 180S picture.

Thanks, kev

I am not sure, but suspect it is a 160S, if it has points.

 

Could you measure the bore of the cylinder?

 

The saw is from the early 1970s, so it surely is old.....

Yeah, pretty certain it is a 160S now - I found a picture of one and it has the one piece body and handle and also that sort of guard where the chain brake should be, its not connected to anything so I guess it was an early idea before they invented the chainbrake.

Thanks, Kev

If you could show the other side as well it might be easier to identify. Is the metal handle a chain brake or is it bolted to the top handle and just a knuckle protector like on early saws ?

I found that picture as well - it is exactly the same as that one with just a hand guard sort of thing and even the tree spike is the same alloy with the worn bottom tooth.

 

I have ordered a fuel pipe for a 180 as I can't find any for the 160 and I reckon the body will be the same, just a different barrel.

Thanks, Kev

Its the new replacement for the T540 with all the strengthening mods needed and points instead of auto tune ........:biggrin:
