  1. Thanks! When I got it on the bench I put it on the side, when im in the forrest I change it standing. My point is that I know how its done and something wasent right, I changed the bar, sprocket and chain and the saw is back to normal. I did use the saw to remove a tree stump last year and I think the sand in the stump messed up something more than the chain, the old sprocket seemed a bit wiggely and worn out on the inside?
  2. Hi, I was wondering about the practical difference is between the 1,3 and 1,5mm wide chains/bar? 1,5mm is stronger but 1,3mm runs easier on long bars? Sprocket rim look ok. When I manage to get the chain on it runs fine, but when trying to fit the chain its like the sprocket got too much travel up and down that axle and the chain keep getting stuck over or under the sprocket. My normal method is to press the bar against the saw so it lays flat and then jiggle the chain a bit, now its like a whole study, last time I had to use a screwdriver to lift the sprocket up while I was jiggeling the chain. Im replacing the bar, chain and sprocket.
  3. Hi, On a 550 XPG with a 15inch bar, whats the difference between the 1,3 and 1,5mm wide chains/bar? A thing that got me puzzled, Ive put the chain on this and other saws thousands of times and I know I got enough of a routine for it to tell that somethings wrong. This season it seems like the sprocket got too much travel so that the chain teeth (on the back of the chain) get stuck either under or over the sprocket when I screw down the cover, getting the chain to fit in the center of the sprocket takes like multiple tries and I remember just having to jiggle it in there. Any ideas?
  4. Hi, Do the Stihl 2-in-1 file holder, .325" ø 4.8 mm fit both the husqvarna SP33 and the H30 chains? Chainsaw file and filing device recommendations | Husqvarna UK WWW.HUSQVARNA.COM The angles may vary depending on the type of chainsaw chain you have. A good way to restore the cutter to the correct angles...
