Partner 500 handle mount

[c_saw]

Hi, fixing up a well used Partner 500 (1984-1988 version).
I think it is missing 5052795-37 & 5052795-36 that connects the front handle to the base.

1) is 5052795-37 rubber or steel? Is it necessary?
2) What keeps 5052792-11 connected to the spring?

If someone has close up pics of what it is supposed to look like, that'd be helpful.

From what little I know of the system borrowed and transferred to some Jonsereds, the outer cover tube is simply that- a cover tube to keep crap out of the spring and can be substituted with a bit of plastic conduit, water pipe or similar.
The length of the arrestor strap keeps the spring under tension and retains it on the rubber stub protrusion of the handle.

Those parts might be available through sawagain.com

or you can just farmer it with a suitable spring and tube. Even the cone shouldn't be too hard to come up with something. You could probably replace the whole shebang (keeping the strap - making a new one) with a rubber stopper type thing.. maybe a little cup on the case bolt to hold the stopper in place or something. It's a bit of a weak point on those saws. Otherwise they are just an awesome little saw, imo (although mine are jonny 590's, so I don't really know what the 500 is like.

Weak point on the 500. Unless for looks and collecting wanting back the same way.
Switch it to the 5000 with brace set up. Some of those parts can still be bought for poulan 325 aka partner 5500.

Think I only have rear AV left myself used. But I'll check the partner bin.

I ordered a replacement spring (505279536) from ebay and I have the black cone that goes into the end of the handle (5052792-11). I think I can just reproduce the tube. Does anyone have the rough dimensions of the tube (5052795-37) ?

thanks

I looked. No tube was on one I pulled apart to part out. All that is left of AV stuff.

Don't hold me to it but I think in the past I have used a piece of automotive heater hose as a replacement.
