I have an opportunity to pick up an 056 for very little. The current owner said the saw runs, but he had noticed the oiler had stopped working. He told me something failed with the pump/gear, and the gear walked out and rubbed through the cover.
The only other info I have on it is that it is an 056 Magnum AV. I was also told that he has used it very little due to the size and weight of it, but I am not sure what constitutes "very little" in his world.
I read that the ignition on these can be problematic, and difficult to obtain parts for.
Is there anything else to know about this big old beast?
I have never had my hands on one of these, so any info will be welcomed.
The current owner lives about 50 miles away, but I have a friend who lives near him that will be picking it up for me, so I likely won't see it (or be able to post pics) for about a week or so.
