Todays snag

Is that what is supposed to be where the hole is? Mine has a rubber plug there. What does the self sharpening mechanism look like.

Kinda neat little saw, has a self sharpening chain system built in. Takes a special chain though. They are easy to work on not like their little brothers.

I believe the rubber plug is correct. The sharpener is the little doo-dad next to the handle.

Pop the clutch cover off and you will see. It's just a stone that gets pushed into the chain at the sprocket by the "button".

Surprisingly, taking the clutch cover off appears to be the hardest part on this saw!

But it does appear that the doo-dad (round post) near the front, right of the top handle at one point pushed a stone into the chain.

Wonder what the doo-mom was doing at the time . . . .?

I've been criticized quite often, for using multi-syllabic words. So I figured as a measure of recompense, I would keep it simple.

I like recompense, I might have to find occassion to use that this week.

Well don't lower yourself to our standards, who else is going to keep the place classy? I don't mind learning a new to me word now and then, still enjoy teasing you though.

Nice saw there Dale! Bought this P42 over the phone last night, pick it up in the morning, yellow isn't my color but a friend had it running when he bought it a while ago, if anyone is interested PM me, I am not attached to it yet.

Lol. Upon a quick inspection, and subsequent teardown...the 288 needs a bit of work. The 181 needs lots of parts, possibly a cylinder..haven’t made it to the 038 yet.
Here is a pic of the piston on the 288..not terrible..but not perfect
Cylinder off shows a bit of porting and fingering...think I’m going to try to salvage it. I’ll throw in a meteor with cabers. The intake lower lip shows some discoloration...I think it has started to wear through the plating.

Any idea who fingered it?

Not a dang clue. Lol. Looks pretty clean though.

Nick the Grinder came home with me last night. "Nick at Night!".



It appears identical to the old model Harbor Freight models, but made in Italy.
