Does anybody know how full to fill a chainsaw gear box?
I'm working on the Super 660 Gear-drive, and want to flush the gear box.

So everyone in America (at least those with CAD) has one of those on their list.

@leeha I have wanted to find time to meet this guy in person hopefully at his place or at least at a gtg. I'm going to say he's the king of kings when it comes to these saws.

Not interested in that, I'm selfish

Lee has some of the most bada** saws I've ever seen

You can slowly buy out his half by telling him he owes you for saw support.

Like it's in a bad environment or something, or being abused.

He would be one to abuse it

Has anyone ever felt like the chain on their saw was moving left and right while dropping a tree or may be it's me.

I'm surprised there isn't a fill line, that old gear drive Poulan I got had an oil fill line.

Floyd had some crazy rare saws as well, he has both a super clean running Mac 73 and 77, museum quality saws

I didn't see one, but I'll look again... Tomorrow.

Rails are square and even, even flipped the bar with the same result. When i sharpen the chain, it will push over some. Bar isn't that old and the chain has a lot of life left.

Are you using the right width chain? I've seen this with .050" chain in a .063" bar...

 

[s sidewall]

50 bar and chain, that all I run on my lp saws.

Most of the time I take the chain off and use the chain grinder to sharpen them. Would the depth gauges do this?

The depth gauges/rakers could cause the chain to cut like you described if they are not all the same height...

I'll check those tomorrow, got to sharpen three chains early before I start cutting all those trees I dropped last weekend. Dead pine is mudder on a chain.
