McCulloch Chain Saws

[Mad3400]

I bought some Oregon kits for mine, the Oregon p/n for the rim kits is 10608.

Thanks for the reply!

Poge,
It is pin #7. When it is loose then the latch doesn't hold very well. I dinged the pin shaft up this last go around. It held for a while. I am going to try the adhesive approach recommend some posts back.

It is only the 800 and newer covers that I have had this problem. The old 700 works fine.

Thanks,
Ron

I've been using the orange gel type lock tight on some saw stuff and I haven't had any failures yet.

Off topic, but here goes:
1st what is the most common problem, or cause of the automatic oilers not working?

2nd I really feel the need to spend money for a pro Mac 850. I would assume anyone on this site who owns one is also wanting to keep it!
There is one on eBay right now. I would rather not do a bidding war with someone that's on this site.

Unless someone else on here has already started bidding on it and you've posted interest in it I highly doubt anyone here will snipe it.
And who doesn't "feel" like they should spend money on a 850 Mac?!

Go for it and good luck!

Yes there are 2 previous bidders. It seam a bit high to me especially on a saw of its age. Plus taking the sellers word it starts.

Thanks for the kind offer. I have several complete covers and just want to fix this one. It seems MAC parts, especially NOS parts, have gone from plentiful to somewhat scarce in the last few years so you might need to hang on to it.

@Xpropane on O * P * E forum member @how57 had a pm800 that he offered me, you might see if he still has it.

Thanks, but your speaking a foreign language what is O*P*E ? Some of you McCulloch gurus would actually prefer the 800 correct?

Arboristsite won’t let you type the other forum name without the stars in between, so remove the stars and type that into your search bar. Observe as I type O * P * E without the spaces: OPE

 

[Woodslasher]

O * P * E stands for outdoor power equipment, fyi.

Will the site allow you to tell me what he was asking for it, cause my wife said buy both and see which one runs better. She is not being a good influence right now.

About the saw I'm sure I will be asking you guys questions about it's faults and ways to fix it. Thanks ,
