Just another 1/4 turn thread

[redlight066]

I’ll start. Some guys just have to put that extra quarter turn and this guy is probably extra half a turn. Yes, that’s a bar stud

I don't have any pics, but I do get some tight ones in. Wonders me how they don't pull out of the case. I guess cause most of them are STIHL's.

You don’t want your bar to get loose.

I’d bet it was a combination of prying face cuts out (another bad habit... use your axe that you should be carrying if your a real logger!) and over tightening the bar nuts. You want em snug to keep strain off the tensioner on kickbacks yes... but if one has to use a ratchet to get them loose... that’s too tight! Lol

That guy probably pulled a cheek muscle while tightening that.
I like to go until it gets loose again..., then back it off a 1/4 turn...

The opposite issue here a few years back on the chipper. Bit of slop turned into a wobble with each of the studs shearing and the wheel airborne.

Old adage -- righty tighty ,lefty loosey tight is tight --too tight is broke

I've seen them pull the studs right out of a Stihl chainsaw .They must have used a cheater bar or something .Conventional thinking is use an insert to repair them .There is another option .Use an 056 stud which is M10 saw side,M8 bar side .

Lot's of logger saws I've fixed
The bar studs
Just fall in the oil tank
They have stressed the openings so much.

I drilled and used an easy out to get a carb screw out already. Obviously the smallest easy out you can find.
If your H screw needs turned in that far you got bigger problems with your saw.

I didn’t even try to remove it. I had a couple of used spares in the drawer. If he twisted it that hard, I would assume there was prolly some damage in there.

Remember, He said he was having a problem with it idling. Lol. Layers of funny here. Anyway it’s fixt now
