That thing is in sweet shape. My Great Grandfather's KB7-b is in that kind of shape. You scored a chipper chain too. Those things make impressive chips. These saws do have a fuel filter(element) in the tank. You have to remove the valve assembly on the bottom. If you don't have a manual there...

Every time I hear ball peen hammer I think of Red Green. "If this ends the ball then this end(flat end) must be the peen." I can't help it. Thanks for your input fellows.

I have to replace the bearing in the clutch assembly on my KB7-B which involves drilling out rivets. I tried some 3/16 rivets for replacement, but they seem awful loose. The old rivets measure .202. They need to be 1" long flush head. This is also my first solid riveting job. I checked with Mr...

I got another question. My one KB7-B has 75059 in the date box, what's that mean. I speculate but would like to know. On another note I just got my new KB7-B running. The previous owners were not sure how long it sat without running. It fired on 4 pulls and idles pretty good. We'll see if it...

Great, thanks. I wondered if that might be the case but I could not see it on anymore of that saw or my others.

I guess I'll try this question here first. Did any of the Disston military saws have an air filter on them? I ask because I picked up a KB7-b(which I should post pictures of) and there is O.D. paint under the orange on the air filter. Doesn't make any difference to me, I just would like to know...

Went to auction yesterday and this saw followed me home. I looked at it a week previous and there were 2 chains in the box. I bought it yesterday and there were 4 chains in the box, one being a chipper chain. It came with a shipping crate marked for shipment to Olmstead Air Base in Middletown...

I picked this saw up at auction. It wasn't quite at "you suck" price. I did get 1 chain for it in a box lot with some other chains and electric chainsaw for $5 though. That sucked.

I thought it was pressed on but turns out it is threaded and turns on. I have since gotten it off since this post. Thanks

I need to pull the drive sprocket. I tried pulling it and it won't budge. Is it just pressed on? I did remove the nut on the shaft. I'm not sure if I'm missing something. Thanks

I'm in the process of tearing it down to see what is good. I will probably end up cleaning it up, slapping a coat of paint on 'er and putting it beside the runner because it looks cool. The bar and chain are really pitted. I want to see if I can get the chain into usable shape as a back up.

The saw on the right I got for free. My pap bought it at his father-in-laws estate sale for $180 in '82 I think. My dad had it until he was killed a few years back. It sat for probably 12 years without being ran. I had a 3' ash to cut up and I remembered the old thing. 5 pulls later we were off...

How do I figure out the model ?

I just bought this saw for $40. I was told it runs, but who knows. I would like to get some info on it. The one thing I have learned is it has a rusty fuel tank. I tried a picture but it does not seem to be working. Are there any id tags on these things? Thanks [/URL][/IMG]
