husky 395 ?

[kf_tree]

on a 395 well below the muffler there are 2 threaded holes in the oil tank. they do not go through to the tank. they are just drilled and tapped holes with nothing in them.

i saw a 395 on ebay that had a black metal tab attached by 2 screws useing the 2 holes i speak of. from the pic i could not see the purpose of ther tab. any ideas?

I think it helps support the muffler.

the holes i speak of are below the muffler support bracket.

Good question, I'm not sure what that is.

I don't know.... maybe extra mounting hole for securing a Nordfeller attachment?

It looks to me like some sort of protective plate for the handlebar. its probably not for the nordfeller attachment, that wasnt made for 395s, mainly for the older husky 444 or something like that.

yes that is the link.....sorry i did not post it. i'm on an apple these days and haven't learned to cut paiste. it looks like a shield, but for what?

It appears to be a guard of some sort. It has 2 bolts visable from the front muffler pic that holds a metal guard that is over the spring dampener. Take another look and I think you'll see what I just explained...the under side shot shows the piece in the bottom right hand corner. I would think it protects that joint when butted up against the wood.
