[quote=TurtleWoods72;1347427Like trying to spread marmite over a cheese grater rather than dousing it in washing up liquid. Yes that's how my mind works Remind me not to have breakfast at your house then

You have to make sure the chain doesn't lift when you clamp it as well.

It's a 36cc saw so it's not a 435 equivalent. The clutch spring looks a bit slack. Get the clutch off and check the oil pump drive behind it. Until you eliminate one problem for definite it's all guesswork.

I took my friend's lad to pick up a MS181 and the shop (Belmont, Sth Normanton) went through the start procedure and showed him how to tension the chain and where to put fuel and bar oil. Unfortunately no one showed his dad who filed the fuel tank with bar oil first time he used it.

Amazon has loads of them all different sizes. Do you want the whole assembly or just the wheel ?
-
Was that before or after you sharpened it ? I did one on my friend's electric saw and the angles and tooth lengths were all over the place and it practically cut round corners before it was done.

That's why they have lakes

Years ago when we were at our previous house there was a nest every year in what we called the dustbin hole on the rafters. One year I went out to find the nest had fallen and two young uns with the parents flying in and out panicking. I nailed a margarine tub up and put the remains of nest and baby birds in and they came and carried on feeding then fligged as normal.

If you are only using it occasionally I wouldn't worry about the discs yet they last ages. A shop near us sells a similar grinder which uses the same size discs and they usually have spares in stock. Amazon sells them if you are looking for online supplies.

Just gone in for a look at this, didn't know it existed
-
Shouldn't this post have a spoiler alert on it
-
Do they cover the spanners with individual moving parts ? I have heard of people being refused replacements for ratchet parts out of warranty.

A few saws for sale on Gumtree for ms200 fans

Like a bloke I worked with used to say, I'll go as far up as you like as long as I can keep one foot on the floor He was not window cleaner material. My wife just looked at this and said whatever happened to Boy Scouts bob a job week, never thought of that one.

I've done this without the rope tie in bit. Screw a batten to your scaffold board to wedge the base of the ladder. Just looked at the picture again, can't you put a plank out the window below it and get a couple of heavy mates to stand on it while you go out to do the job ? (done that as well)
-
Has it broken on the hole in the band ? The design was changed after a lot of premature failures repaired under warranty have you got the newer type of band ? They might be getting rid of old stock.
-
It's just waiting for someone to do a Lorena Bobbit on it now.
-
We have 3 old ones, my wife loves them and I put a new motor and speed controller in the last one we bought. The spares are getting a bit thin on the ground so we bought a couple to tide us over.
-
A friend of mine is looking at a David Brown 700 series at present. It needs a new clutch but it's not a bad price. It looks just like that one.

Not on ebay

A house we looked at years ago had problems with raised floors because of subsidence. Is there any evidence of cracking round the door frames and windows ? It had sunk slightly at both ends and a supporting wall in the middle was holding the centre of the floor up so the door above it would only open half way before it grounded.
-
Where is the house and is the floor the original quarry tile ? If so they were bedded on nothing substantial, ours were on clinker from the local foundry which is notorious for moving on it's own. Our kitchen has a low ceiling and the floor rose so much in the middle that my head touched the light fitting, the house was built around 1860.

You can buy a Moulinex but you need a special permit to buy a professional like a Kenwood.
