... is the bearing inside the sprocket. We really like the drilled crankshaft on all of our previous Husqvarna saws, but now we have to grease them just like Stihl owners do. Oh Well, or words to that effect. At the end of the video you will see a good trick for snapping the E-Clip back into the groove. Don't do this in the woods. You will lose parts if you do that. At least I would!
That's a monster saw David. I went with the Stihl 362 3 years ago because I wanted a carberated saw rather than M-tronic or Autotune. Weight and cost were 2 other big factors. I cut a lot of wood and that 362 does a great job without the weight. I'm running a Husq 353 as well and I love that saw. Gotta admit, wouldn't mind running that 572 for a spell. Hope they got the Autotune bugs out.
ReplyDeleteCool tip. If you cannot catch the tip of needle nosed pliers in hole, you can use a pair of slip joint pliers to catch the bottom of the shaft and top of the e-clip.
ReplyDeleteFor really large e-clips, you may need channel lock pliers.
And yes, get spare e-clips in the size you need because you are correct, you will never find the errant clip when it takes off for the wild blue yonder.
