I have a Mac Eager Beaver 2.0 like this one.

Has anyone ever added an automatic oiler from this one to a manual oiler saw?

I like the saw for what I use it for and it starts easy.

I found this post in searching, I would also be interested in this topic of an automatic oiler.

Would it require a different fuel/oil tank to match pick-ups or just a crank driven sending unit.

On a second note, could a person run a line from the muffler to pressurize the tank and pump oil out like a hot-saw would?

I have know idea, but I hope that someone does.

What is a hot-saw?

What a terrible post!!!

For me, this saw is one of many, and a gift from someone who didn't have very much to offer. I can't speak for the other fellow.

What is a hot-saw?

A hot saw is essentially a hot-rod chainsaw. Many hot saws are built from the ground up with engines from motorcycles or snowmobiles, etc. There are others that are maxed out chainsaws that run on fuels like alcohol or nitromethane.

In reed engine saws it was easy to use the positive pressure from the crankcase to run an oiler....case in point the early Homelte XL and Super2

Piston port motors have little positive pressure in the crankcase except at ilde which remove that possibility.

In a muffler can as fitted to a regular chainsaw there is not enough of a pulse UNLESS you use a reed on the outlet of the can ala some Macs

You would run into heat issues then but it is possible and may not be a bad idea for a project I am in the middle of

Why it's a great saw for notching fence posts and other small building projects.

Not every job calls for a 361.

I just got a Wildthing given to me for nothing.

I'd like a 350 or a 361.

Just put 2 350s in the trash today....after stripping all the good bits

I keep a couple of Eager Beavers around at all times

The single greatest name for a chainsaw in the history of chainsaws

i would get one for the wife but she alr.......... er, nevermind.

AFAIK all those saws have auto oilers. My Mac 110 from 1978 has auto and manual oiling.

That is not the case with the little one I've got. It has a wire-like metal pump lever that reaches from the clutch side to the flywheel side near the handle to pump oil.

Mine has that also, but it is to supplement the auto oiler...

Gee Wally.......

All the "Beavs" had auto oilers with manual assist.........are you sure that is a Beaver?

That is good news. I haven't had the saw running due to a bad fuel line and I had to tear it 95% apart to get to it. I saw the manual assist pump and didn't even look to see if it had an auto oiler.

Oh, I know a beaver when I see one.

Per the above link "OIL PUMP: Manual" and of course the knowledge that my oil tank never gets low unless I pump the wire handle. :greenchainsaw:

 

[lawnmowertech37]
