Pioneer chainsaws

[Beavers]

Pioneer was thinking it is one less adj screw for homeowner bubba to get his hands on.

 

[Beavers]

There is no idle screw . There is just a jet for air . Somethings plugged .Ill find it ..

Here are some Pics of my 14-50, it was made and purchased in Peterborough, Ont. Carb set-up same as the model 14-20 saw

Looks the same as mine . I have a 14/50 p/c on it. I wonder what besides color was differant. Galesberg is close to me but I bought it in Minnesota at a swap meet in september. Has a Sabre DW 5020 Bar on it .

The 14-50 had additional Auto - Oiler system and a different Crank. The 14-20 did not.

After careful study I came up with its to lean ! Walter you are correct. But it was lean both ways . The voodoo magic is Aire at 1-3/8 turn and fuel L 2 turns H 1-1/2 . Fossil is right these carbs are touchy . What clued me in is a slight open of the butterfly kicked in the intermedient which has a much larger jet. So I reduced aire and put more fuel to it . On to the next . My parts pony 600 arrives tomorrow .

Had a little time today to cut on the 7/16 to 404 clutch conversion. The steel in the rim and spur is really hard, had to go very small cuts. Took some out of the rim I.D. and cut the spur almost off . I measured where the chain seemed to ride and went for it. First I made a plug to make the drum solid to clamp tight.

After the cut it all looks good.


A little silver solder and I have a winner!

Nice Job.

 

[Walter Glover]

Most excellent repair!!!!

BTW how big is your lathe?

 

[2stroke_shaman]

I wish that lathe was mine . It's at work , it will swing 12" . I'm a maintenance magician at a factory that makes bolts . Head and thread .

 

[PogoInTheWoods]

That's some nice work, there. It will be interesting to see how it holds up.

 

[2stroke_shaman]

I think it will hold up well with silver solder . That stuff is tough and resistant . Holds gun barrels and carbide cutters on . I'm looking forward to a sharp chain and some horsepower!

Taking the parts 600 down . This thing ran and the bearings are shot. idle was super high with all the extra air . The flywheel was rubbing the case bolt with the slop. But perfect donor for project.

I do believe the 600's use 6203 bearings if you're up for it.

Thinking of a P41 that is waiting to follow me home

 

[2stroke_shaman]

I can usually find something to pull with . Not for pioneer. Have to fab another to pull case apart , offset lines and 12/24 thread . Bolts are rare in legnth at 12/24.
