Firemans vent saw

[cre73]

Is there any major changes that need to be done to convert it to firewood duty, besides the bar?

Which saw. Many are used to vent. Stihl, Jonsered, Echo? Generally not much depending. Probably get longer bar and regular chain.

And drop sprocket and tip to .375 from .404 unless that's what ya want to use

Ran a 20" .404 .063. Changed to .375p .050g

Here is a pic. Not sure if I am going to buy it but kinda interested if it goes cheap enough. 575X torque

Seems that the one I worked on needed the bar oiler turned down..

It probably has a course foam air filter, no bucking spikes either.

Uni vent used to be sold thru Bailey's.

I would find a better air filter or modify the one on it to cut wood

Our VentMaster 575xp have the standard husky high top filter, one outer spike, 404 sprocket , solid nose/solid bar 20" and full wrap handle. Some of the saws still have the aluminum case/muffler guard. If it still has the VentMaster carbide chain, that is worth 275.00 by itself.

We have over 30 of them in Sevice.
