ProMac 435

[BirdHunter]

I am a newby, this is my first post. I have been reading posts on this forum for over a month and really appreciate the info that you guys give. I have 5 saws. Three Homeys (xl Auto, Super xl Auto, C5), ProMac 435 and a Ms260. All are in good running condition, I use the old ones several times a year to keep them in shape. The MS260 is hardly broken in yet. I cut mostly white oak, blackjack and hedge (Osage Orange). I cut the white oak to split to make decorative rail fences.

I need a part for my ProMac 435. The chain tensioner screw vibrated out and I lost it and the nut with the tang that fits into the bar. My local dealers say tough luck on Mac parts. Is there someone that can tell me where I can get the screw and the tensioner nut?

Thanks

I think the 435 was Italian but the Pro Mac name spanned the entire Mac history

Post a pic and we can verify...I should have those parts

Still haven't found Ozflea's old tensioner though....

so many boxes...so little time:help:

It appears that for awhile there they brought all sorts of saws in.
I still have a new never fueled Italian made ProMac 72

You wouldn't by chance have any ProMac 72's would you?

Pro Mac 435vc

My Pro Mac 435 appears to be the Italian made one as pictured in gatkeper1's reply. I bought it in January 1985. (serial #11-010992) It has a 14 inch Oregon bar and chain. Just use it for trim & Limb saw. Works great for that.

I need the chain tensioner screw and the chain tensioner nut with attached tang for it. Should be one around if I could find the right scrap pile. But most of the local guys around here have gotten rid of the old Mac & Homelite stuff.

Greg, No I don't have or don't know of any ProMac 72's around here.

Thanks,

Jack
