Please help identify this Jonsered saw

[JohnMaddux541]

Hey fellers I recently bought this Jonsered saw on eBay thinking it was a 2258 or 2260. I know it’s hammered but I like cleaning on saws and making them look as new as possible. Got the saw in the mail today and the tag is hard to read but I think it says 2258. With a pull cord and some fuel it fired right up!! Can someone help me verify this? And if anybody has a full wrap handle and side cover they are wanting to rid themselves of let me know! Thanks again

It's a 2260 judging by the brake handle and the 2258 has the manufacturer tag above the oil cap.

Looks like it was in the hog lot for a couple months.

I figured that was some sort of anchor to tie a tether to for climbing.

Huh?

Good looking saw, not too sure how well it cut with chain on backwards. The broken off rod sticking out the back of the saw is the remains of a useful measuring rod for bucking lengths of wood, usually set so that it is 4' from end of rod to tip of bar.

Wrong! That’s the remote start.

Just the remnants of a cut to length nylon whip.

Good catch Tim, I had another saw on the brain. Those two look identical .
