Tightening flywheel nut on Stihl ms170

[stihltech]

This one was also available.

Guess i didn't do enough research, maybe this one is better.

Metal one seem to have rounded tip.

idk

Maybe i will wedge a screwdriver after all... or try find some dealer who would do it.

Using rope is also possibility.

Thanks for insight.


Much better

Finally got to tighten flywheel nut to spec. Borrowed moment wrench.

Tried with 3/8" rope but was too thick, than used 9/16" rope to block the piston. Before inserting rope removed muffler to see that piston is above exhaust port.

Put everything back together. Will test the saw in couple of days.
