I though about making my own to but there price is pretty fare on it I think but one thing I noticed on the cover plate is it go's under the handle bar so that's the only thing that keeps me from getting one but I think that's only on the full rap handle bars for fire and rescue ones.

Just a "heads up" for you guys to check out. I found this on my second mill saw, there is a nylon chain guide on the crank case, behind the bar plate. With that guide installed (and it shouldn't be), the guide plate doesn't seat completely against the case around the oil journal slot. What happens is that the bar oil comes out of the journal and leaks down behind the plate instead of it all going into your bar. If you take off the nylon guide strip, make sure to mess around with the bar plate to make sure it hasn't been bent at the top from the guide strip. Bend it around and keep putting it back on until it sits flat. Then, when you mount your bar it will make the plate sit flat and all your bar oil will be going into the bar journal hole.
I will have to look at mine again but I don't remember it having that.

It was on both of my 660s. They are stuck on there from Farmertech, so you probably didn't even notice it.

You must have bought a complete running saw from farmertec the only place that the plastic guide strips go is on the bar cover.
Maybe not. I just remember the ones on the clutch cover. I check it tomorrow after work

No, I built both the saws from the kit, and I agree with you, the guide doesn't belong on the case behind the bar plate.

I hear what you are saying. That sounds like one of those "differences". If you built your saw then you installed the guide or somebody was bored that day. The case as we all know comes only with the seals and bearings installed. I have no doubt that is something that could make a huge difference on some cases. I have seen 3 molds used, don't doubt there could be more. That is certainly a likely outcome. Sitting here I think mine might not sit flat and have the guide I put in place. I will look and appreciate the tip

I noticed it on my second one when I was doing some milling and changing out the bar. Then I went and checked my other saw and "yup", there it was...

Mine does not have the plastic guide in it.
When you hear something like that you can only check your to see if it might effect you. We been building kits a while and the parts have changed. You will see me ask questions like when did you buy the kit, not when you built it. Some people sit on them. I have tracked a lot of problems that way . Yours being a recent one.

Yes mines recent. I did get an extra one of those plastic guides with mine. They had already installed one on the outside clutch cover and put an extra in the parts.

And yes I was already having oil issues so when I got back from dinner tonight I took a look to make sure it did not happen to be there.
Hi Guys
Just finished putting together my Farmertec MS660 and I have a few parts over. Some are/seem to be spares, others I am not sure on.
Any help gratefully received.
PS my brake band came with a pin. Also thanks for all the videos chainsaw kit guy.
