Good lord, Tim.

Could you just order those o rings for Steve?

$2.42 is a pack of 25

Gotcha. I've been a little slow lately, been having brain farts again, stress.

what should I be looking out for on this saw? Never worked on one before.

 

[Todd Loosli]

When it starts keep your body parts clear, looks like it is a mean saw.

If you are changing bearings in a 5200 or so saw 300 degrees is a good temp to use, they just about fall out. If you have the new ones ready you can drop them in, be quick and it works well. I sat them on the oven rack, have clean parts so the Boss doesn't get mad, and just a little tap and out they came, put them back till the oven was back to temp then dropped the new ones in. I sat the bearings in the freezer for 20 minutes, not sure if that helped.

Are these a good saw to run ?, saw not bar just saw.

Ok guys who are liking the saw , I dont own it ( yet ) but honestly if you own one I'd like to know what you think of these before I buy it. As far as running and tuning.

I'd be looking at the oiler. By the look of the bar I doubt it's working.

Mark as a pile of those and may be able to give the advice you need

I've been buying some stuff in bulk from them here. For the price of two grommets for fuel lines at a store I can get 50 from them.

I think Steve has it figured now........ but who knows. Those 100+ degree days down there can make your cerebrospinal fluid boil and cook your brain.

Ever since my wreck, I have brain farts, had three today. What's so bad is when you know what it is but your brain draws a blank. Frustrating.

[Todd Loosli]

Don't worry about the farts we like you just the same

Me and the 4000 went and cut 2 cords of wood, lodge pole pine, from 8 to 18 across and 38 inch long . I'll get a picture tomorrow. I'm tired

 

[s sidewall]

We've got about 15 trees we need to drop but dad keeps putting it off, ain't like he's running the saw and bobcat. Pine beatle kill off. Hate those buggers.

My son-inlaw borrowed my CS400 Echo the other day to cut up some trees. He said he loved it, out cut his Husky 55 I built for him years ago. Now he wants one and for me to mm it.
