EXCELLENT instructions! Easy to follow. Perfect camera views. Step by step. So good that I had to leave a comment -- which I rarely do. THANK YOU! Side Note: Hubby said he couldn't remove the tree stump because the blade was too dull. So a year ago I bought a new chain. A year later the chain was still in the package it came in and the stump was still there. Today I changed the blade and tackled the stump thanks to your video.
I actually had the adjuster screw on Husqavana come loose and that part that gets threaded by it came off. Found the part but now the darn adjuster screw won't come out. Guy I have to get rough with it to remove the screw. Almost looks like Husqavana put some type of washer inside to stop the screw from coming out. Thanks for the video.
Poulan Pro PP4218A I keep the chain sharp and correctly tensioned. I haven't lost the adjusting screw, but I see how it can happen. Every once in a while I'll look down and the adjusting screw is spinning. The chain doesn't loosen and the bar nuts are tight to the clutch cover. When I take off the cover I can tell that the pin on the adjusting mechanism has disengaged from the bar. I don't see any damage anywhere, there's no obstruction, and neither the bar holes nor the pin appear to be worn. Any idea for why this occurs and how I can prevent it? Thanks.
Hey Don I noticed you using a tool to take off those first two nuts with a tool that looks like something that comes on a skidoo or generator for the spark plugs.. Why didn't you use a ratchet and socket to take those off?
it gets a spark, its a Homelite. we figuered it out, it was the plastic tighting knob, it striped it self out from haven to retighten it every few cuts. Im just gonna order a new panel for it. do you think it could be something else? thank you
I have a Poulan Pro and the chain adjuster is on the bar. I have noticed that after 5 or 6 hour of cutting the chain becomes detensioned quite quickly. Ever seen one of these? Any ideas as to why this might happen?
I have a chainsaw with the chain adjustment on the outside. it consists of 2 knobs. 1 locks and the other adjusts the chain. the lock knob just spins. and it wont keep the chain tighht and we cant start it either. please help me out man. I really need help lol

@@donyboy73 what is the part number for this specific tensioner replacement kit?
You just hooked me up! Thanks brother for the post!
Really appreciate your videos! They're very helpful! :)
Thanks, just what I needed.
@2035jim sometimes the chain stretches and causes this. also make sure the bar nuts are very tight. i would have to see it to help u more

thank you you helped me a lot today.
Thank you! GREAT video!
@Raylep1 it's just a chainsaw tool, 1/2" socket will do too
Thank you your videos are very helpful
+Shawn Cartee thanks
Did you pull the spark plug before moving the chain back and forth on the bar?
Cool video dude !
thanks for watching
You left out the most important part of the video, which is removing the old screw.
@FergusonTO35 i don't use my saws that much

Thanks for the video, but how do you remove the screw if the washer is in place?
My pin broke and now I can't get the damn screw out. Please help.
I'm having the same issue. Did you figure out how to get the pin out of the retainer?
+Dan Aquino I'm having the same trouble.
Me too ... how do you get the screw out ... my thread has been stripped (not loosening the nuts enough)
I have a Poulan Pro and the chain adjuster is on the bar. I have noticed that after 5 or 6 hour of cutting the chain becomes detensioned quite quickly. Ever seen one of these? Any ideas as to why this might happen?
do you have a video on testing a coil?
best example
what is the part # for the bolt/pin that adjusts the chain....Poulan 220Pro
Old video, but he forgot to mention their is a washer/slim nut depending style, right after you slide bolt or screw the bolt in the beginning.
He Donny I have a McCollouch chainsaw PM 605 with a push oiler button if I don't push does it still oil the bar????
+Shawn Cartee some do yes
no but it is very similar
I have a chainsaw with the chain adjustment on the outside. it consists of 2 knobs. 1 locks and the other adjusts the chain. the lock knob just spins. and it wont keep the chain tighht and we cant start it either. please help me out man. I really need help lol
Does anyone know the part numbers for the bar and chain
what size is the screw?
My Poulan chainsaw from 2000, woodshark 1950 does not have a chain brake. Is that normal ?
not normal, they all came with a brake
@th19940305 i had a few requests
So should I push it anyway?
+Shawn Cartee if it's self oiling then u don't have to, my neighbor had the same saw and never pushed it
No video how you took out screw
ty
Maybe also give it a spray with brake cleaner why it's off
So wrong you never even put the snap ring back on the screw man so yur bolt don't come out lol
