ready to pick up my 372xp!

Today i took the 372xp in to the local saw shop to get a professional once over and to get a couple new rapid super full chisel chains, saw was running fine I'd just like to keep it that way, the chain however was in need of replacement big time, maybe had a16th at best on some teeth, going to pick up the beast tomorrow at lunch break since its close to my work, I'm going to be all giddy like a school girl until i get the chance to use it again! To bad i work weekends, Monday can't cone soon enough!

 

Sounds like an anxious day for you. Now go cut up some snowmen!

 

Hope she gets some trigger time on Monday - have fun! Cheers!

 

Two chains and everything gone through, new plug new fuel filter and new air filter 90bucks. Well worth it! Monday is supposed to be 34degrees!

 

Be safe and take some pics.

 

I know you're looking for peace of mind, but you know how easy it is to change all those things.....right?
I bought the "kit" for a few bucks last fall, and I'll be doing all that this spring before I start cutting again.
Oh wait, you got 2 new chains too.
Well, go cut some wood......we ran out of pics to look at.

 

Yea i wanted them to make sure it's revving where it needs to be and right fuel air mixture. That was the biggest concern, but they said it's where it should be

 

Yeah, I need to either learn how to tune, or take it somewhere, but the basics I can do myself.
The saw has never been tuned since I bought it.

 

you did well!!! Last year my FIL took his 011 to a dealer because it wouldn't start! Asked him to get it running and tune it up, when he picked it up the dealer started it and charged him $100.00.
When he got it home it wouldn't start. I told him I would take a look the spark plug was never changed and neither was the air filter. I replaced the plug and cleaned the filter made a slight adjustment to the carb. and the saw runs like a champ. Where do they come up with these dealers? needless to say that dealer will not get any recommendations from us.

 

Ouch, the shop here has taken good care of me, I've taken both saws there a couple lawn mowers and they've done good by me, they've taken me into the shop and showed me how they make chains, showed me a thing or two to save myself a buck or a trip to there shop, and even given me recommendations on a grinder for sharpening chains (that i didn't even buy from them)(they didn't have any) knowing full well i wouldn't likely be having them sharpen any chains, they've got my business needless to say. It's a bit further than a few shops around town but it's worth my time and gas.
I hope you've found a better trustworthy shop by you!

 

I'll likely be going to the dump I'll definitely grab a pic!

 

Not sure why you'd take pics of a dump. Just glad you said at the dump and not taking a dump.

 

Sorry guys didn't cut today so no pictures,but on the plus side i got 40fliers printed out to drop in people's mailboxes,the power company has been clearing lines and well there is a ton of wood around! Going to hand them out tomorrow, hopefully I'll get a few calls or texts!

 

I think, I and I could be wrong, that it is not allowed.

 

How so? I asked the power company if i cold take it and they said to get permission from the land owners

 

Not getting the wood but putting non postmarked items in a mailbox. Not that I care but I just wanted you to be aware it might not be allowed. Either way, good luck.

 

Putting mail in someone's mail box is technically illegal...unless you have a USPS logo on your shirt.

 

You should just knock on doors and hand deliver them at about 3am. Wear a gopro because I want to see the reactions. Lol

 

Not a bad idea!
