I think a lot of us are closet echo fans. I have a cs510 and a cs520.

Yeah what’s the scoop with that? I even see 590s often NIB here in Seattle in the $200 range and it seems sketchy. I wasn’t aware of Home Depot auctions - is there a site?

Anyone love the Husky 125b? Looking to buy (probably used) myself.

Gurus - can anyone provide service manual for echo cs510 and Cs520? I have both. I already have owners manual and IPL.

I have an 020avp and was in the same boat. I never did buy anything because the saw has other problems I haven’t sorted out yet (stalls when hot). I never found a new 16 inch bar but archer makes a 12 and 14 that should fit (.043) and I think the 10 inch still pole saw bars look like they’d fit...

That’s a 3/8 bar/chain isn’t it?

Where in WA are you?

A thrift-store toaster oven works wonders for small parts heating and curing.

I don’t think there’s any difference between an automotive compression tester and a small engine one. Pressure is pressure and automotive and small engines have comparable compression pressure.

I could use FG110 owners/service manuals/IPL. Mine was stolen, recovered in a ditch a year later, and needs a little work because a country brush cutter drove over it. Still has compression and spark! :)

In 2003 I was a cop and we had a bad situation. We found out an armed guy with a murder warrant was holed up in a room in an upper story of a local hotel. We knew he had barricaded the door and there was no other good way in to the room. There was a 30 hr standoff and negotiations were going...

Answering my own question here for benefit of anyone else in the future with this problem. I found a fuel line pack at Home Depot - Arnold 490-240-0008 that contains two sizes of fuel line. The larger line is 3/16 O.D. and fits well. I think it is Tygon but not sure.

I've got a dual-trigger super-2 that I'm doing some maintenance on. Runs fine but oiling seems a little light. I was replacing the duckbills and I ripped the pressure line in the tankwhen doing so. I thought I had enough slack to pull it out, trim it down, and proceed, but the line is a bit...

I’d love to get an message saying check my inbox too (assuming 020av is same manual as my 020avp). :)

Not the greatest ever, but saw an ad for this for free and picked it up. Cool little saw and I just ran a couple tanks through it. Homelite super 2.

Testing today went well. I took down a dead 8" alder. It went down wrong which had nothing to do with the bar. I cut face and back cuts, and when I went to push it to get it started, i pushed the hinge out (it was rotted, didn't know it!), so it went basically 180 degrees from my intended fall...

Thanks!

Ok I gave that a spin, and it seems to have helped a lot. Tightening it too much was simply not going to be a problem. Even without a shim between the rails, it was a lot of work to get it to move at all. As in, put all my weight on the vise handle till the edges touch, and they'd still spring...

I'm intrigued. I have a vise, an anvil too, and a 6x9 belt sander. So do I just use something like a ball peen hammer to try to close the gap? Do I use something like feeler gauges to keep from closing the gap too much?

My 020avp bar is worn out. It is an early 1/4 pitch, .050. I’m hoping to find a not-too-worn replacement. I prefer 16 inch because that’s what my chains are but I would consider 14. I’ll consider any other options that will bolt up (e.g .043 bar).
