Homelite 909G

[CM76]

Hi Bill,

Its currently 18:44 on a Monday evening. Almost time for another onslaught of the Christmas leftovers.

How is that weather over your way? Hope things are not too cold.

Regards,

Chris.

Hi Jacob,

Regarding spare parts for these 900 series saws, would you happen to have a spare gearcase cover to suit a 990G ?

No gear-case covers here Chris, otherwise I would have already offered. In fact, I have a 990G myself which is also missing the gear case cover and a 909G which has some sort of hackneyed cover. I just don't understand people. How can a person just lose a gear case cover? It's a mystery like all the Pioneer RAs that are missing the top covers.

Yes it is hard to believe. I can't believe that you are in the same boat as me on this one. My saw was owned by a gent who passed away some years ago, and came into the possession of his nephew. The PO obviously was doing some work on the clutch or idler assy, as these parts were also missing.

Here is a pic of the 990G.

One thing Homelite sure wasn't afraid to do was put big g-dam flywheels on their saws. You have to go the old 2 mans to find bigger ones.

As little as $4.95 a week, with a small down payment.

When I told Mr. Bow Saw that his 9-26 was capable of felling trees up to 10' in diameter, all he said was "yup."

I noticed there's a 7-month factory warranty. Maybe Chris needs to call Homelite?

My 900G is sitting in a chaos of yellow chainsaws, it's been asking for rescue.

No problem there Randy - my Homelite shelter is always open to any orphan 900 series saws!

If only I could! There would be so many items in the 'shopping cart' it would not be funny. I would have some good looking Homelites, thats for sure.

Thanks for posting those pics of the 9-23 / 9-26. They are awesome old saws.

Regards,

Chris.

So is mine...and I have many yellow Scallywags looking to jump ship.

Hmmm...you are less than a days drive away. Too tempting, need more room, maybe next year

This saw arrived from the US today - a Homelite 909G geardrive saw. She is in pretty good shape, with most components in order, but needs a couple of things repaired to get her in running condition.

Regards,

Chris.

What a monster! I'd love to own one some day, but I doubt I'd be able to use it...

Not an issue...I think I have a gear drive with a kart engine in it that has your name on it. Oh, and a 60" bar. :rockn:

You're killin' me.

Crap, time for another shot. I wish it would dry the hell out, hit 72" for the year this morning, no end in sight. Weird thing about today's rain, it's falling straight down, after being beat by gales and squalls for the last two months, it seems odd.

 

[Teddy.Scout]

I am in on the shot!
Well lets say I may be one up on ya!


Oh ya! GEAR DRIVES ROCK!

 

[RandyMac]

Well, here's one to ya lad!

Do you have any with my name on it?

 

[Jacob J.]

Do you have any with my name on it?

I'll bet I does...I also happen to know where there's another NOS General bow bar in Homelite mount.
