What's on your bench?

Copy, couldn't remember if it was this saw or another, that you mentioned on Egan's fb that you were going to get rid of it

I got snowed in right after I bought it. Was busy for 3 days.

First got my truck stuck trying to move 3-4' first drift. Then got stuck again once dug out. Next day jump in it and wont start. So called in the big dawg to open my 700'.

just finished bringing this barn find back to life. Sitting in a barn for probably 20 years the guy said. Intake boot was good luckily. New lines and rebuild the carb and make a foam air cleaner. She's a runner now.

For several years I cut all my wood with one of them. Then I got my 044 and never used it again! Had persistent problems with the recoils, and too many vibes, especially in the cold.

Fired that mm 31 off in the metal pole barn. Forgot how loud that SOB was.

How in the hell does one get this damned oil pump drive gear off of a Husqy 55?!?!? I’ve tried heat, freezing it, been getting a steady dose of lube for 2 days... I separated the cases with the seal still in between then tore the seal aprt to get more room. I have used 3 different pullers and haven’t gotten even a BUDGE out of it. I’m afraid to try to drive it down more to get it moving and lose what little space is there.

I think it’s a 3/4 pipe union that will thread into the oil pump gear. Then you can use a regular 2 or 3 jaw puller. @Onan18 can probably clarify things for us.

I don’t have enough of these saws (or work on enough) to justify spending more than $2. Good call though. Would be much more beneficial if other saws required the same specialty tool.

50/51/55 also 154/254/257/262 all use the same tool. @Canadian farm boy a 3/4" union will work in a pinch but I strongly recommend the proper tool, it's fairly inexpensive.

So a flat head screwdriver is out of the question?

I have been known to use a torch and a big flathead in a pinch.

Oh i already tried that. Since I am here asking for advice (and apparently not using the search feature well enough before asking) speaks for itself.

I have had decent luck with the redneck way.

Hook a puller behind the bearing and pull the whole shooting match. A little heat on the pump gear and bearing will help it move easier.
