Homelite Chainsaws

[rarefish383]

I picked up a Super 2 at an auction Tuesday, in the red case, plastic one, for $15. Had been all shined up on the outside and had a 1/4 inch of grease on the inside. Cleaned it up and put fresh fuel in and it is an absolute screamer. The only thing wrong is the bar stud is stripped right where the nut tightens up, so they had 3 flat washers on it to move the nut out to good threads.

Studs an easy fix

Yep, got an order ready for chainsawlady. Joyce said the stud was $2, and I need some air filters for the 1050's and a couple C5's. Hope to wrap up a couple projects before mowing season sets in, Joe.

What's your bench from? I have one that looks just like it. Mines Dawn Redwood. I took my new 1050 down on the court where I could rest the bar on a log. Gripped the trigger in my right hand, starter handle in my left, cranked 3 times and started right up. Pushed the choke in and after about 30 seconds to a minute it was idling smooth as silk. Super happy camper. In this pic it's running, Joe

The bench, knowing me is probably for or larch framing lumber.. 1050 is cold blooded. Won't run for first minute

Can anyone identify this saw please? Thanks

I'm going to make a quick guess and say it's an XL900 series. The oiler looks like one of mine. What's it say on the recoil cover under Homelite? How long of a bar? I'll have to defer to more knowledgeable folks. With no other saws near it for perspective, it looks big to me. Pics of the XL900 series are kind of slim on Acres site, but I saw one with that oiler, Joe.

I'll look when I get home, but looks close to a XL-101.. Might look it up on Acres site. Has a funny oiler system also. Or maybe 850.. Those the 2 I have

On Acres the XL101 has a pump oiler, not the lever, Joe.

Here is a sad story . Saw was used to cut ice . P/O thought it would be a good idea to tape the recoil closed to keep water out. It's seized anybody have a P/C ? It's a super 1130 G .

 

[rarefish383]

All of the XL100 series had thumb oilers, not levers. I didn't see any lever oilers till I got in the XL 900 Series, might have missed a couple, Joe.

I have a xl101, it is definitely bigger than that.

Did you pull the muffler and check to see how bad it was? I've seen seized saws come back to life, but not if they are all melted together, Joe.

XL 925 that's what it looks like to me

Are you saying this one is bigger than your 101? It looks very much like my XL924. On Acres site the XL922 looks like it has a lever oiler, but it's hard to see, Joe.
