Took apart my 288xp today...I know it may be a stupid question but how do you put the chain break back together? I'm new to working on saws so take it easy on me! Does the pin fit under the spring or what? Just need a little help or pointers. pic attached. thanks.
 
I can't open the above file. Anyone else have any pointers?

What makes you say this?

It looks like a Word97 converted .doc file which just will not open.

I agree that Microsoft itself is a virus
Well ,i TRY to open the file and my Word got crazy.File try to open,keeping trying to open by itself without stopping until i shut down my PC.
 
Kind of a bold statement to make, and slandering to Kiwi. Besides, I can open the file fine.

Well,i didnt say that to insult Kiwi or anyone else,but like i said my Word got crazy trying to open it.Word BY ITSELF was trying to open the file many times and i was doing NOTHING on the keyboard.So i deduct that the file was some kind of wrong inside.Just delete my post if somebody is offensed.
 
I understand you position HiOctane. Stranger things have happened. I'm not sure why you all are having trouble opening it. I'm using Word 2003 and it opened it the same as it would any other Word document. I did save it to my HDD first.
 
was not a virus i assure you. I can open fine, its a plain old word document.

I would have uploaded the entire .pdf but it was way too big


no offence taken anyway.

Thanks

Steve

Is that ever a clean looking 288 saw!
 
Man I thought my muffler modded ms460 was a mean running maching until today...

I cut some hickory for firewood today with my freshened 288xp... I hate to say it but I liked it better than the stihl. (except for starting it) It seemed to have more grunt while bucking.

That's it I gotta have more old huskys...I'm going to buy my friends 272xp and 371xp tomorrow.

Did you put in rubber mounts or are you running the POS springs on the 288??
