Clutch cover with captive nuts

[MichMich]

Hi Gents,

Don't remember where, but I recall to have read that a clutch cover with captive nuts seemed to exist for the MS461 (and then the MS460). Is that true? There are none on the parts diagrams of both saws. Have one on my MS261, and must admit it's kinda cool and pretty much useful out in the woods!

Cheers

My 562xp has the captive nuts and yes they are great.

Ok Folks. I'm going to give a try for a mod. Will use a Farmertec clutch cover and redrill it to fit the captive nuts. Test saw is to be my MS460. This machine uses a complete Farmertec engine (comes assembled in a crankcase), and it uses the correct studs. I also ordered the tool and what to convert my MS461s if the Farmertec conversion is successfull
