Sharpen the chain, chuck chips ...repeat...
So for the most part I run big saws but will always reach for the MS 250 with easy start , wife's saw, when smaller jobs have to be done. But on the last quad trip I went on, the recoil rope broke but because of easy start worked perfectly so the saw was still runnable with only a 3in's of rope to pull on.
So I went to replace the rope and..... what a pain....I was ready to pull the spool and drill it out, it was sooo bad. The hole in the spool is sooo small that even the proper sized rope is tight going in.
So I wound up melting a piece of mig wire into the rope and using a small screw driver to push at the same time, managed to pull the new rope through.
Is there an easier way?
Should I just pull the spool and open the hole up a couple thou?
