chain saw mounting

thats your anwser but hang on the mount is crap you can use mine if u want first buy a metal plate then drill 2 holes according to where the screws are attached in the muffler.

depending on how thick the plate is you may need longer screws and yep thats pretty much it.. i was wondering if you had any spare working motors please? message back if you do


good luck david.

They are not actually head bolts. They are crankcase bolts. I would not mount to these bolts due to the risk of a crankcase air leak if the bolts strip or get jolted!

Believe it or not the bar studs are a very good mounting point. You usually only need another mount on the other side of the chainsaw to stop torque flex. You can safely mount to the starter bolts. Remember though, you have to be able to adjust the position of the engine to get the chain to run true.

As for the clutch -it will work for a long time if it is healthy.

i,ve done a few projects with chainsaw motors . I just weld a sprocket to the original chainsaw clutch . for chain drive and i fab a base with spacers . then you can do what ever you want to the base
