Want to Buy Parts for a vintage Stihl S10?

[paulhogan87]

This saw was my dads and we used it up until last winter. As you can see in the last few photos, the chain guard plate on the bottom half has worn all the way down and came off causing the chain to rattle. Any ideas on replacing it? I also don't have much knowledge of the saw apart from the fact that my dad has had it since before I was born. It's always ran extremely well and seems to be practically indestructible.

Forgive me, I'm new to this, I nothing about these saws. What is a "sweep"? Or an 08? All I know is that plate is broken at the bottom on the last 2 photos

Sorry, I meant the body shape that resembles the shape of the later
produced model the 08s .the s10 is a more streamlined ,and less blocky
looking body .but was produced before the latter .The engine are the same
Less s10s made by far .Great info on this site ,and welcome!

You have the early top handle s-10 It is built on the 1108 series case.
It's the same as a 08 just a smaller bore by a couple of mm.
Here's mine, those bar guides are the same as a contra, 07 and 08 when you find a set take a flat blade screwdriver and work it under the old plate towards the rivets and pry them up. that's how to remove them.

Hi, thanks for the tip! Sorry I'm just now responding.
Any idea where I might find a set of bar guides for it?

Any idea what years these we're made? Just out of curiosity.

look at the top that has the production years.
I'd think they were built around 67 or 68 before the rear handles were produced.
they are built on the same style case as a 08.
