024 AV Wooboss with debarker

[SEAM]

I won this saw in an auction last weekend...



Some details are a bit strange:
Normal 024 AV cylinder (no "S")


But... The saw features a side chain tensioner and therefore a 024 Super/026 crankcase (necessary for the debarker as tensioning from the front is difficult??)


I found slotted as well as torx bolts and screws :KK:
The carburetor linkage resembles the one used on newer versions (can be removed only after removing the black handle cover).

Is it possible that Stihl assembled modified engine units for debarker use?

I think more likely is that it's a frankensaw built up to serve a purpose. Doubt it came from Stihl that way, but who knows? Is the debarking attachment made by Stihl?

can you show the front of the attachment??

Not sure about the 024/024S thing, but lets see how that debarker works?

Want to sell the debarker? I need one for use with my sawmill.

The video didn't work out as planned - out of focus . I will try again when I know what went wrong.
The debarker is not for sale.

Plus it is in Japan...

I would say its a chainsaw just with the debarker attachment.
They have side tensioners on the saws.
Its has its oil tank and feed.
The big give away I think is under the tensioner unit, that aluminium bracket bolted into the centre of that white plastic plug is the chain catcher still in place just bent up out the way.
