Yep, I got a craftsman 2.3 top handle as well. Good strong saw, but it could really do with some av mounts. Got a 14" on it now and does it ever rip through whatever you throw at it.

Yep they did, red. Mine even has a thumb adjuster for the bar, swapped out the threaded adjuster, just have to install a roll pin in the bar to use the thumb adjuster.

Ta da! It's a pretty clean saw all in all, didn't see that much use from my neighbor.

That is a nice saw with some BIG teeth on it. Did you make those spikes on it?

I noticed that also. I was going to ask the same question and saw you beat me to it. What's the black knob on the top handle for?

The black knob on top is the choke. Same as my Poulan2000

Or do you mean the square knob, that's the manuel oiler.

Yep, the dog is custom made. Gets in the way a little for the tensioner, but it's not bad. I know I posted a shot of the dogs a long time ago in this thread. Might have a shot on my computer still, if so I will post later. The saw definitely needs it one, and I was able to use the designated mounting holes for it.

Got to go through this one later on.

Im just hoping the auto oiler still works. PNA, would have to make my own diaphragm for the pump.

 

[Mac&Homelite]

Thought I had more than this picture. If you want any more, or a trace out or the like, let me know and I will do that when I'm back home in a couple of weeks.

The 25da had an auto oiler? Thought they were all manual.

 

[s sidewall]

Super had both auto and manuel and the biggest engine out of the series. Please do send a trace, specs, etc, would like to make a set for mine.

Lovin' these old Poulans, I got a 2.3 Powersharp just like the one in the above pic, and it gets used very regularly...

The new box store plastic saws just can't hang with these saws, would like to see one last as long as these have.
