Top handle threads

[gordgord]

I have searched in vain! Can someone tell me if the 4mm bolts thread into straight plastic on the saw, or is there a metal insert moulded into the plastic?
Underneath there are two more bolts
of course
Just wondering about over torquing
Thanks for any help

Ok, that was confusing
How about this.. do you use locktite on the threads?

That was confusing I thought you had a Jonsered top handle chainsaw. If the screw is like a wood screw then it most likely goes into plastic and one can try and turn it backwards until a click is felt so it does not cut new threads. Chances are those are machine screws (you call them bolts) I guess if they fall out I would use some blue Loctite. Maybe someone else that takes the handle off can comment.
