Sorry for my ignorance at going back a few posts but what electrickery parts area you after??
-
Not sure bud. The sticker has gone and its too late to go taking it apart. Plus the other half is on my case as I have just sharpened another saw on the kitchen work top :lol: Those chains can really scratch up a surface if you put them down on it. :laugh1: Good job a paid for them. Will take a look in morn and see if the customer is happy.
-
Don't know. The new parts came with the saw today. The customer had brought it. Don't know where from. Any idea on the price of a genuine new one.

Here is a golf one. 024 MS240 chainsaw piston kit GOLF - fits Stihl 42mm | eBay Or depending on the state of the piston you can just use new rings for about a tenner from mister solutions. But there are other suppliers on arbtalk.

Yes title says 73cc but the description says 79cc. But the op is referring to pictures and discription. Only thing I can see is the chains is on backwards and its blunt. But it is semi chisel. And it's the right chain for that bar. And the bar is the right size...
-
Ok so lets run through it. It's a DCS7300. It says on the sticker with the barcode on the handle. It is used but it is in a good condition. We don't know it works perfectly but it must be easy to start. 18" bar is right as its 45cm on the bottom and that's 18 inches. And the chain must be sharp as its on backwards. But does look dirty so hasn't been sharpened recently. It is clean. Not so sure on the use by the wear on bar. Powerfull. Maybe.... Not a grand when new that's for sure. Not on a 2002 dated saw.

I'm lost and now I've burnt the dinner.....

With the chain on backwards it would of course get very little use tho......

Sounds like an excuse to buy a superior stihl saw to me :lol::lol: -

You will love the 660. A cracking saw. Could go all the way and get the 880 with the shortest bar. Will rip into whatever you throw at it. I love stihl by the way. -
Just been out and had another look at it. The arms are dead in line with each other. Seems that if I hold the top of the pull start assembly when pulling it doesn't do it. Like I need to hold it down. Got the cutter to fire up and a tweak on the l and h screws and it running fine. Just the starter that's annoying. Have to put it down and rest on the assembly when starting. Guess it would be a good backup cutter. Oh a pic of the arms and flywheel. A closer one this time.

Well its not really that. It's just a work day is structured. Being at home is just manic. Go out shopping, get home, sit down thinking its all done, then you've forgotten something so its out again. Then its kids want to go out. Just goes on and on......
-
: The bits are free and move easily. It's the position of them I'm not sure about. But the flywheel has never been off. Just a bit strange how quick its wearing away the plastic part. Put a new one on and its almost instant. Can't sort the running issues until I can try and at least start it.... Crap design IMO. Ryan that pot looks salvageable to me. The exhaust port looks like it has sharp edges but without feeling it can't tell really. Acid will clean any ally transfer off and fine grit emery will remove and ridges from piston. Best to do an acid clean and then see if there are any ridges left behind.
-
Best way to IMO. If you know nothing you will learn more. Knowing stuff just brings in bad habits. Everything will be covered on the course. If its not then just ask them. That's what there there for:thumbup:
-
Pa1 is easy. Jut knowing chemicals. Storage, safety stuff. What you can do with them etc etc etc. It's a piece of cake but look into the other courses aswell. Knapsack is a must. So is watercourse. Not much use with tractor mounted in arb.
-
What's this lay in words everyone keeps using.... Since the lifeboat my days start at 7 everyday. And end at silly o'clock at night. But as been said its our choice really. I prefer working as working is easier than being at home...
-
Spud if you do this one I would be very interested to see the insides of this saw and the changes that can be done.
-
Too short. Flywheel....

A question of rather husky fans, The hedge cutter above has a plastic white part on the pull start. Sorry the name eludes me. It is missing on the metal parts of the flywheel. Are these set right. Does it every now and again. It's a new part on there. Just wearing it away and missing.... See next post for pic of flywheel:thumbup1:
-
Blower fixed. Now onto a husky hedg cutter. Temperamental. Going to give it a clean and see what happens. As you can tell by the pic I'm outside as its a beutifull day. Sun is out. Lovely.
-
Well come in from lifeboat and now have two machines awaiting for me.... On is a bg75 blower. Was working and then stopped dead. Won't pull on starter. So suspect seizure, took the pull start off and used a socket. It turned but was very hard. So thinking its seized started to pull the engine out. Got the covers off and the engine was loose inside. The screws holding the engine in place had worked loose causing it to move around inside wearing the fan against the plastics. Now looking at either new plastics or sorting it so it doesn't move around. See if some spacers will bring the fan away from the plastic enough so it will work again, the customer wasn't interested in spending a lot on it as its old. See if I can work some magic.

Yep. I like living on the edge. Just the way I roll. :lol: Nothing wrong with using petrol. When going deep it doesn't matter as your replacing parts anyway. A deep clean is always given when repairing a saw.
