Partner Chainsaw Thread

[MS460WOODCHUCK]

P 70 is what I'm looking for next. Hope I can find one this nice.

The one I'm waiting for did'nt look none to nice but what the heck it's unmarked territory to me and I've got to admit that I'm a little excited.

I was a little nervous about buying this one. Being as I didn't get to handle it before purchase.But am more than happy with it.

Can anyone tell me what the difference between the Partner 500 and the P5000+ is? Also what is the difference between the P55 and S55 is?

 

[WKEND LUMBERJAK]

I think the P55 is the pro model and the S55 is semi pro.

I was wondering what makes the difference between the pro and semi-pro.

The Partner 500 is an open port saw. The 5000+ is a closed port. Besides a handle brace, there are no other differences. The 5000+ does have much more power. You can see the brace in the first post in this thread.

I see... is the p55 a open port saw and what makes it a pro over the s55?

My p-55 has all yellow, all my S-55's have a black case and yellow top.

Possibly, but I'm not certain, I don't have any of them.... yet. :msp_smile:

The p-55 has a different oil pump set up than the S-55 other than that I can't tell the difference. I have one P-55 and three S-55 partners.

Picked this up yesterday. Sorry for the green letters. Posting pics isn't my nak. View attachment 193691View attachment 193692View attachment 193693View attachment 193694View attachment 193695

Ken, that thing is beautiful. Nicely done.

Could I ask what bar mount does that take? I'm assuming the large Husky D009 correct?

I know that the Mac PM 1000 version takes a Mac bar mount and I'm not too crazy about that either.

Could you do me a favor and post a picture of the bar mount pad area of that P-100 to compare with this PM1000?

Thanks, I was hopeing to see the bar mount pad on the saw itself without the bar plate on it. I was wondering how they got the oil holes on the Husky bar to line up with the oiler on the saw.

On this Pro Mac, the oil outlet on the saw seems too high to mount to the Husky bar. It seems to be directed behind the bar plate to the cavity below to line up with the Mac bars adjuster slot which oils through it.

Wonder who thought it was a good idea to put 8mm studs on this 100cc saw?

Mark I'm going to get some batteries tomorrow. Batteries died that was the next picture I was going to take. I'll get them for you.

Thanks I got a case of curious if you know what I mean.

I got the 1000 pulled apart some and started cleaning it up some. It was misssing the bar adjuster screw but a Poulan Pro 655 6mm adjuster screw fit it perfect, even the snap ring grove was in the right place. I drilled out a Poulan adjuster pin from 10-24 and retapped it to 6mm and it worked perfect as well.

Seems the tube and vent is missing off of it, but I think I got a partner style vent valve here to put on it.

I'll try to take some more pictures of it and post in the next day or two.

Mark, Did you put up any pics of your Mac yet?

I didn't know but would have thought the Partner P100 and the 1000 would have had the same bar mount. I learn something every day, I'll be watching to see what you do with it.

Mark got some more pics. Hope these help. Some aren't to good.
