McCulloch Chain Saws

[heimannm]

The Pro 10-10 Automatic is a less common model. Notice how the block was cast to accommodate the lever operated DSP valve.

Did you ever find one of these in the bottom of your oil tank and wonder where it came from?



And the answer is





Normally there was a small piece of felt in the space with the vent hole, evidently to minimize the amount of oil that would leak out if/when the saw was tipped on its side.

I posted a pic of that same thing about 1 1/2 yrs.ago & I was told is was part of the oil cap.It came out of either a 2-10 or a 10-10.

What a coincidence.
Learned about the .354 pitch tonight

 

[Goinwheelin]

That’s better.

 

[heimannm]

That's a beauty.

I wish I had some photos of the sprockets I've seen recently, mismatched chain and sprockets, sprockets worn to the point they won't even drive a chain anymore, you may have seen some of these yourselves. .354 sprockets with 3/8 chain is a common flub.

Thank you. That means a lot . It’s the first Mac I’ve ever gone completely thru.

Now how do you suppose it got in there like that?Totally shutting off the flow of oil.

Tried looking but can’t find the info. Does anyone know the cross reference oil seals for the FW side on an SP125C?

Hey Poge hows that 7-10 coming along?

It's been quite patient while I've become completely sidetracked with other activity. I ran across a nice wood burner for sale near me that I just couldn't pass up for the price. It required a fair amount of work to get installed as a replacement for an older one in what I hope will be my new shop area soon. I've been lacking momentum on that project too, but have a new head of steam going now. The 7-10 sits here next to me as I type -- like a loyal puppy needing a scratch on the head or a treat. I move the parts around occasionally to let it know I still love it. I'm excited to get it back together. Just need to get the right vibe and focus goin' to get into it the way I like to work on my Macs. It's a whole different feeling for me than just wrenchin' on regular saws..., a different type of gratification that requires the right mood. Sorta hard to come by these days with things the way they are, tho. I'm just happy my wife and I are still healthy at the moment. Hope everyone else and your families are , too.

I just went to the store and found everything I wanted, worlds not too crazy, Boss just told me I can keep operating as normal in the parks even if we reduce opening and visitors.
Maintenance never sleeps.
If we just keep our heads up and do whats right things will be good.

First post on this form topic thread. Sure glad I found this thread.
My McCulloch chain saw is a 125 - SP. With just under 1795 pages I should be able to find out some good information about my saw. Anyone have some links to the pages on this saw. I know this is a legend model of saw. I bought it to use for milling.
Thank you in advance everyone here.

 

[Goinwheelin]

Welcome! You have come to the right place. I joined late last year and people have been very helpful.

Man I would love to have a 125

Thanks for the warm welcome. Yea I got very lucky as the saw kinda fell into my lap after putting out a Craigs list add for one. The deal got even better as the original owner also sold me a 5 ft. double ended bar Gransberg mill as well. It is still not believable that I found such a saw from the original owner. He bought a newer Stilh 090 and no longer needed the 125 - SP. I had to look at the serial number as it just says Super Pro on it to figure out it is a SP model.

Does anyone out there take off the gas tank and mount a separate gas tank for use in milling logs?
What other modification should be done?
Thank you.

 

[Goinwheelin]

I don’t know about milling but there are people on here who do. I’m sure they will chime in

Pictures of the saw would help also.
