Jonsered Chainsaws

[briantutt]

No thats not the right handle in that picture. Thats a 500 handle!

That thing was a mess.

Do you have the 590 IPL?

It shows the right parts in it and there identical to the 5000 I pictured.

Look at this IPL, the bottom bracket has a rounded recess to meet up with a round tube??? and the AV parts in that area match what I have. I boxed the areas in red...

I just re-read this entire thread, and man, I've come a long way! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who has helped me over the past year a half. My saws would not be running if it weren't for you guys! I got all 4 of my saws into some wood today. Had a big oak in my back yard that was topped previous to me buying the house. It was in sad shape, and I have 15 others on my property so it had to go. Used the 36 to top it (18 inches where I cut, it was about all it could handle), the 52 for limbing, the 80 to drop it and cut the stump, and my 625II to buck it up. I recently put a 20in bar on the 625 running a full comp full chisel, and the thing would not quit. I've been really impresed with that saw! Just rambling a bit, but again I just wanted to say thanks for sharing your knowledge with me!

Just thought I'd post a shot of my newly acquired Jred 520 to get in on the fun. Put through some wood today and she runs pretty sweet!

I just got a full wrap handlebar for my 2188 last week. It certainly rocks out!

What doesn't rock out so much is that I bent my bar bucking some downhill laying poplar on a 60 degree slope. The buck finished and one log slid down next to the other bending my bar beyond repair. Needless to say I left that bar in the woods.

....

It's rediculous that you seem to know every saw by heart. You must have one heck of a good memory

I am still struggeling on that "family" of saws - lots of variation/versions and differently branded models.....:biggrinbounce2:

LOL What really sucks is that it was done in by damn poplar!!!!!!!! Ten of those are not worth even an old beat bar!!!! Sorry for your loss!!!!

I feel the same way, the guys on here are great and a wealth of knowledge.

 

[huskydude]

just picked up a new nos bar

 

[SawTroll]

Cool bar - is that a 16" K095 one in 3/8", with an 11t nose?

 

[huskydude]

yes sir. Sandvik 3/8 .058 16"

 

[SawTroll]

yes sir. Sandvik 3/8 .058 16"

Is there any referance to where it is made (I am collecting info when I can, as usual)?

 

[huskydude]

yes, it is made in sweden

says sandvik with a picture of a fish next to it :hmm3grin2orange:

after the sweden it says 84a (not sure if that means it was made in 84)

 

[SawTroll]

Thanks, that was no surprice - I have no idea about the 84a though - your guess is as good as mine....

1984 would be about right. It is a "Jonsered", not "Jonsereds", and that change took place around 1983. And that bar looks no newer than mid-80's.

I didn't think of that! :agree2:

 

[J.Walker]

Another Jonsered sign.

[Cantdog]

HMMMMMMM I've got one like that too, Jack LOLOL!!!

 

[SawTroll]

Another Jonsered sign.

.

Cool, but all those posters show "E-lux Jonsereds", and not real Jonsereds - they are a bit too new for that, probably from the 1980s!

Btw, all the current ones are "Husky Jonsereds", except the two cheapest ones - but you surely know all that.

 

[longbar]

Does anyone know what model this is? Its missing some parts and the tag. Or at least I cant find the tag.

 

[PB]

What you have there is a Jonsereds 621. Good saw.
