    Battery falling off Husqy

    No, I doubt many like that. It is not that popular to get the help you need today. Not many want to know what options there is. Much better/easier to buy things first and not be disturbed in your thoughts. So I get to see many hard earned bucks get wasted on wrong product choice. As bonus I get...

    Many tape, not sure if it is to help hold tap out or battery in... Doesn't seem to work anyway. You need to find out why. This is not very good to drop from a tree..

    Stripped Oiler Gear - Cause?

    That sounds as a bad idea to me. I would not do that. I also store saws in unheated area. If I were to cut in -10c it works fine, -20c (I don't cut but customers do) need a bit glycol in it, about 10%. That is what works down to -30c. Lower temp then that they should sit by fire and drink...

    Chainsaw repair video series

    I looked a bit on videos, but its too much talk and often you see the level of experience pretty quick. Most is hung up on problem, not cause or solution. Focus should be more on a good repair than the grade of clean it is. Those that use water when cleaning saws in any way shape or form...

    Stripped Oiler Gear - Cause?

    I am still waiting for those issues all is talking about with Canola/rapeseed oil. One day I might get to see it.. Manufacturers veggie oil I see it enough though... Stripped gears on electric saws is mostly lack of oil as it lubricate pump as well and some run way too long without oil... Seen...

    Stripped Oiler Gear - Cause?

    If the spring is right and is in correct place it can strip the pump shafts gear If that is stuck or motionless. There is a difference. If not mounted correct it ride up on crank gear and will not pump. Seen that a couple times. Pretty common thing on consumer grade stuff... Springs are good as...

    Stripped Oiler Gear - Cause?

    Was the gear stripped on pump or on crank or both? There are different threads in gears, even in same models and even several different in some models. If the pickup line is clogged the WD40 will not help much and it can pinch.

    Bar oil 4.95 a gallon

    Sure. Different bar types have different limitation and property's regardless of brand and models. Its like choosing different types of loaders for a gravel pile move. Big pile, big loader is most often a good rule we hear a lot but is that enough?. Solid bars flex less and is great in some...

    Bar oil 4.95 a gallon

    Groove, rail, drivelink, tiestrap all wear and how they wear is a tell of how the chain is set and maintained. Closing rail help nothing if wear is in grooves bottom. Some solid bars can be cut in groove, rail lowered and get like new, but most is not hardened deep enough today. Older bars is...

    Clutch Bearings - When To Replace?

    If you have new bearing, put it in, save the old as spare. A tip, If you change sprocket. Put a new bar on and rotate several chains on same sprocket/bar. 5 chains or more. You get less wear and more runtime of the stuff.

    Bar oil 4.95 a gallon

    I meant most of my customers that run daily do. Most casual users I see here don't. I try less to convince as they do't have as much gain in it. As the nagging and promise of saved €$£ got the pro to try listen how to save €$£. Money is what they work to get, if it can easily be saved a couple...

    Bar oil 4.95 a gallon

    I think that is something most do that use saw daily. I did anyway... Most that use saw daily and service here do as they rotate several chains/bar and flip bar at same time. Most have 5 or more chains per bar and rim.

    Bar oil 4.95 a gallon

    Turn those pumps up, get out as much oil as possible.. Much cheaper than wear on rim/bar/chains. Most important job the bar oil do is not lubricate. Its heat transport... It absorbs the heat and take it with as it fly off. That provide a cooling affect. Cooler running bar= less wear. I ran...

    Closing bar rails

    If there is wear in sides of the grooves bottom, there is no help unless you can cut groove to next drive link width. Usually not enough. I re-cut and pane out grooves on solid bars with replaceable tip when needed. It is not often as these issues are result of a problem. Once you learn the...

    Closing bar rails

    Rail is one part of. Chain and bottom of tistrap is the the other. Both need to be good and match in wear. Correcting one will not fix much. When there is this issue, wear inside bar is often more in bottom and top so groove look more )( than II. Closing top may help slightly, but not much. In...

    What Are Mtronic & Autotune?

    Problem with saws today is not the fuel or ignitions it's the engine type. Strato, x-torq, air pulse etc.. Different names to same thing. This is were problem is.. Imagine a 357 with autotune! You could see with 372 how much different it was with or without and that was one of the better...

    Sharpening tips?

    Sharp tooth is the most important. Angles are not important unless it can cut. File is the best friend you have so keeping it clean and sharp is most important. Most times I get to talking about this they don't have the tool fit for job at hand. Turn file after first stroke prevent crap from...

    These are great saws once you get to know them a bit. They were a huge success in 500, 5000, 5500, 540 and last 543. Husqvarna kept the design in 50/51/55 and use same crank/piston/cylinder in various variations. Poulan 325, Jobu 949, Jonsereds 490/590 and some others was also made. Wonderful...
