Man, the person who invented this should be given a big hand and stack of money, it makes the sprocket changing so much easier....

What im talking 'bout is the new (no idea when it came) style clutch that has no nut that needs to be opened, you just put scrench on the slot and hit it hammer and TADAH clutch is open and then you can just throw new sprocket to it.... makes changing sprockets a joy...

:hmm3grin2orange:

I just wonder if stihl got anything like that......

That's about how I do it on my 353, but it is much more convenient to change sprockets on the MS361 and the 372xp.........
 
Not!

Sprocket rims are cheap even here, so I change them out every second chain or so - hopefully none will break in the field that way.

i'm used to seeing people wait until their sprocket breaks into pieces before changing it. :bang:
 
piston block, spare plug, fuel filter, extra scrench, and a little chain fixing tool, and files

Ya got nothin' on me....i carry an extra jug for each saw, two pistons & four rings for each, handful of wristpins, 4 to 6 ounces of cir-clips....

Gaskets, spare carbs, stacks of bars & rolls of chain, compression tester, leak down kit, welder for in-the-woods muffler mods....

Impact wrench, compressor for same...spare jug & piston for compressor...
 
Y'all carry sprockets to change out afield?

Yes and it's not realy all that big a deal. I just made an extra little cut out in the box for my extra wrist pin and crank seals so I'd always have one handy.:popcorn:
 
I have you all beat. I carry three identical brand new saws... Just so I can take a part off any one of them to keep my one and only work saw running. I do of course carry everthing cord arrow has also:jester: :givebeer:

Every second chain? heck, send them to me; I'll use them!
Takes me a lot more then two chains to get the 0.5mm wear limit. Maybe I sharpen mine too much??:)

I can see all that, but the sprockets seem a little overboard.
 
Bunch of lightweights!!! I carry a gas powered air copmpressor, my Hobart generator/welder, a heliarc welder, six saws, with enough parts to rebuild them twice, a welding bench, a grinder, a grinding bench and stool to sit on. My gas grill, my flatbottom boat, eight fishing poles, three tackle boxes, four coolers, two for beer one for bait, and one for food, a minnow bucket, a livewell for bait fish. Two cases of bar oil, thirty gallons of gas, two gallons of two stroke mix, five sleeping bags, two tents, two heaters (depending on weather) and enough food and water to last four days!

Of course in Canada we have to be REALLY prepared. Everything sawinredneck said plus a dog sled, 6 Hudson's Bay blankets, a dozen cans of tobacco and enough jerky to last to spring. Did anyone mention a spare spark plug - that too.
