    Thats a 372...missing the sticker.

    Actually its got a cheap huztl big bore chinese kit on it. That saw is a basket case. I did it for fun. Never much more than tuned it and pulled the parts back off and sat it there.

    It looks very similar to the woman I bought it from.. Got this one with it, shows a bit more promise.

    The guy apparently did tree work before he started driving a truck. The 180 did fire up and ran well.

    I have a bar for it, anyone know if the tensioning wheel comes off or if is a permanent part of the bar? This has the tool less adjuster.

    and i have no idea about those type of tensioners. Only time ive ever seen one personally being used on a saw was a dude i work with who had a screwdriver to turn the little wheel since part of the handle broke off.....
