Hi all,
I have been using Shindaiwa 360 for over 20 years, initially for cutting whole bunch of Christmas trees and more recently small firewood cutting etc.

Before buying it, I was told this was the model chainsaw carvers use and many run them all day long.

It's been a great little saw and the only thing needing replacement over the years was the fuel hose until recently, when the chain oil started leaking while the saw was not in use.

It turned out to be a simple fix, just needing to reseal in-between oil inlet hose and the pump inlet.

Looks like parts are available through Echo, Amazon, eBay etc.

Enclosed are three photos of a clutch removal tool I made in order to access the oil pump hose.

Nice looking tool. Are the bits rectangular key stock??

Thanks,
I cut the bits from 9/16" or 5/8" grade 8 flat washer and brazed them on.

The body was just a piece of rusty old flatbar which I machined round.
