So I just picked up a 930 last weekend. Of course it has the 10mm bar studs which I don't like and am wondering if any of you Jonsered experts have ever come up with a direct bolt on of any studs that would allow the use of a 9mm slot bar on them?

I tried a set of Husky 77 studs on my 920 but there just a bit too short if I remember correctly. I ended up turning out a set on my lathe for it and it worked out great, but I'm not a machinist by any means and it was quite a job for me to do that, so I'm still wondering about a direct stud swap on them.

I haven't needed to so far.....seems like I have enough old bars in good shape and a few NOS Totals to just use as needed on the older large saws....probably making special 9mm studs that thread into the old case would be the only realistic way to get them the right dia and length....

Thanks Robin, but that right there is where I'm in the opposite situation, this is the only one in the shop that uses a 10mm slot bar and I just don't feel like tying myself down to one filed out bar for it. It has a good 24" bar and chain on it, that's a bit small for me to even want to get it out and use this big of a saw.

I'm pretty sure there should be a set of studs that would bolt right on, maybe a set for a 2095 or such, just thought someone here might have done a swap.

Making the bushings for the clutch cover holes is not a big deal, I just didnt want to have to make a set of studs from scratch again.
 
Is there any telltale ways to discern a 801 from a 90?? Will the riveted on plate numbers provide any help in figuring this out?? If so here is what they are; 494718

I'm not really a 'collector' yet, as I'm still using the J'reds for work. But if serial #'s mean anything I have a low serial 90 and a high serial 90. 484051/1616031. So if your saw's serial fits in between, I'd say you had a 90. Need more pics, really....there is the plastic wing missing from the bottom magnesium handle-attached to the side. Not being a 'collector', I don't know all the ins and outs of the J'red production history yet. Maybe you can't go by serials...I dunno.

I don't have a 801, but many folks here do....your serial # falls in between the two I have....my vote is 90.

Hello Kevin, Thanks for your response. I only have pictures of this saw so maybe you can review this following information provided by 'woods work' and check out the pictures. I had cross-posted in the main 'Chainsaw' section and 'woods work' had responded there with this info;

With comp release button on top = 90
Without================ 801

Since you have the 90's is the button that the green box is around on the 2nd picture a compression release button??

Here's a few pics of the unknown mill rig that came with the 111S.....posted these over in the CS milling forum here to see if any of those guys know the brand name..looks very well made....

Any you guys know what brand this is????View attachment 348040View attachment 348041 View attachment 348043 View attachment 348044 View attachment 348045

Well, with those cast vertical pieces, it's a sure bet it wasn't milled at home.......interesting it doesn't say some brand name somewhere.

Seems there should be....but it would have to be 10mm coarse to 9mm fine right??? And of course the right length.... Maybe find a machinist friend to make a handful would be cheaper per unit....but you may well be right.......I think I've seen 910s with both the 10mm studs and the later 9mm ones on different saws....I have afew 910s at the shop.....I'll look them over tomorrow and let you know what I find...

Well they go from 10mm thread to a 9mm step to 8mm threads.

Here are the ones I did for the 920. Bar studs (Custom).JPGBar studs (Custom).JPG
 
Here's a nice 621 I just picked up off Ebay. Surprised how nice it was-painted the muffler but otherwise cleaned the dust off only. Piston looks new, just need to go through the fuel system and run it.

Ahhhh.....I see there are three steps.....no wonder you aren't all that interested in making another set from scratch. The IPLs aren't much help....mine show two types in the renderings, the 910 one shows just a straight stud but the 920/30 and 820 ones show a flanged stud like the one you show...cant tell if it's stepped down.......but.....they all carry the same part#
 
Yep that is a nice 621......kinda funny the muffler looks so used and bent up, yet the rest if the saw looks near new!!

I thought the same thing. Guessing it was one of those homeowner purchases to clean up storm damage and then never used after that. I'm excited to run it, never had a 621 before. What's really nice is the tight A/V, it really feels like an off the shelf new saw.
 
Am I going to get in trouble making my own crankcase gasket for a 670"

The origional is .011" thick and the Fel-Pro material I have on hand is .031". Will the extra .020" cause trouble with the pump/clutch/sprocket stack up? I might have to rat tail file the cylinder bolt holes a smidge maybe.
 
Robin,
Getting back to the timeline of Jonsereds/Electrolux...was there officially a 910 points model for a short run before the 910E came out?
And after the 910E morphed into the 920E/EV & 930E/EV...how were those two models different than the 910E...were there some cost cutting corners made on those two models?

As I mentioned before, I was given a 910E to run for a day when I was still loggin'. Good saw and lots of plastic I had never seen before...lol! Now look at the plastic, fantastic saws they make....
