Solo Chainsaw's

[Piotr Pakuła]

I'd like to know what the solo 650AV has a chain guide assembly pattern

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

Does anyone know the dimensions of solo 650av crankshaft seals?

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

For Piotr, the stihl guide is the most suitable, large assembly, you only need to drill an oil hole to fit the right oiler solo 650av

sealants are good / broken there was a carburetor mounting thread on one screw now works well I have to reduce the chain and see if the oil is running

I was able to pickup a Solo 656 today in dirty but very good shape. Excellent P&C so pretty happy despite the fact that the seller raised the price when I arrived with another offer. Still $110 is not bad for this 56cc saw with a good bar and new chain.

how old is she because mike is not on the list?

The 656 doesn't appear on Acres site which is a little out of date. It appears to be a newer design, all metal except for the top cover.

The Solo 656 is very similar spec to an Efco 56cc saw from Italy.

Looking for any of the Solo chainsaw factory service manuals. The ipls and operators manuals are around , but the service manuals seem unattainable. Thanks

Hi guys, I've just added a 635 to my little collection :

It runs great but the clutch doesn't disengage and the bar and chain are worn (even with the tensionner at full setting the chain is very loose).

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

we are shortening the chain here in Europe ;-) ) / maybe it's the fault of the clutch spring if the chain always turns

 

[leecopland]

There was a discussion about the Solo 650, long term user review I think was posted on this site. Does anyone know where it is? Thanks

 

[Piotr Pakuła]

and what exactly are you interested in?

 

[leecopland]

I wanted to speak to the author "brokenbudget"

If I can't have a 642, I still have these (my most recent anyway) Solos to mess with.

A nice 125, with a crappy paintjob. My understanding is the 125 was renamed or rereleased as the Rex. There's not a lot of information on the 2 as separate models and Solo clearly kept changing details on the saw without over marketing a new model it seems. Sort of contrary to McCulloch and Homelite releasing a zillion nearly identical model saws. I have 2 125s that are clearly different. If course, maybe my first 125 is really a Rex with the wrong recoil cover. I don't know.

Not sure about this one yet. The handle says 655 or 660 but a cursory check of the bore and stroke says 650. Nonetheless, my junk 620 donated all its AV mounts to fix this one up and I've never seen a full wrap on these saws.

Hi there,
I recently got a solo 660 and i'm looking for a parts list. I tried searching the internet and there is very little info about these saws. Can you help me ?
