Hi Folks.
While selling my excess 066's, I got talking to a local bloke who is setting up to do some milling on his property in the hills.
He was interested in my saws but was short on cash and waited to see if they sold, which they did.
He rang me back tonight and we got talking about saws and I was telling him how I rebuilt them myself from the ground up.
He told me he had a Husky 372xp, one of the early xp models he recons, that has some issues and when he took it to the local dealer that told him it would be $900 to repair, and promptly led him to the wall covered in new saws.
He asked me if I could have a look at fixing it up for him cheaper than the saw shop.
I recon I can.
Now I have only ever worked on Stihls and I am wondering what little tricks and tips people may be able to help me with?
Special tools needed?
particular things to check for on these saws?
I dont plan to charge him much, it will be a good learning experience for me and I can make a little pocket money in the process.
Cheers
