Cleaned my XS7900 with compressed air. Went to fire it up and it lost spark. The switch had no tactile or audible click between on and off. The two halves of the switch had come apart. I had to get it out of the housing. I tried to get a small screwdriver behind the switch but no dice. It went right back together once I pressed them back together. This is the kinda problem I can deal with.
no dolmars up here much so kinda forgot they used the husky style kill switch that seems to like to break for me. Cheap enough to buy a new one though.
Have 2 500i’s and a 201 tcm in shop for tlc, just did 4 other 500’s for minor stuff, couple 201 tcm and a 194 last week. Sharpened about 4 dozen chains that the tree service drops off 100 or more at a time.
It’s a husky style kill switch but on and off are reversed. I’m don’t own any husky saws so I’m not fighting a habit and getting frustrated.
maybe. The Makita to switch it off is away from the handle. The husky is off towards the handle is my understanding.
