Homelite 35SL
DIR By: leec

---------------------------------------------------------
I believe this to be the Canadian version of the 360. Anyway, I
got it refreshed with the help of the tuneup kit from Chainsawr
which included everything I needed including the intake boot.
Got it running pretty well. P&C looked really good. My problem
is the bar and chain, In putting the B&C that came with the
unit back on the chain is clamped by the bar plates so that it
won't move. I'm pretty sure the plates are on the correct way.
The Acres site states that this unit should run a .325 chain but
that's not what came on it.
It may be that the B&C weren't right as the saw was a non-runner
when I got it. I have tried a couple of different Homelite and
other bars but to no avail.
Any thought welcome
Regards,
Lee

The 35 is actually the first of the 35/350/360 series. The 35SL
is a 35 with a chain brake. SL signifies a chainbrake on these
saws. Same with the 350SL and 360SL.
Measure your bar studs. Are they 3/8" (9.5mm) or 5/16" (8.2mm)?
IIRC some saws of this series used the Oregon D096/D196/Windsor
UXL mount (as used on the SXL-AO), while others used the K095
'small Husky' mount as used on XL76-130 and E-Z/Super
E-Z/XL-1/XL-Mini/Super Mini/etc Homelite saws.
Can you post a pic of the bar mount area of the saw with the
inner bar plate and bar on the studs?

Acres has the 35sl introduced in 1991 and the 350/360 in1976 but
perhaps they are wrong. However it also states plastic
injection molding the construction??

The Acres listing is messed up.
-Injection molded plastic construction
-1991
-Walbro WA/WT carb
Sounds more like the 290-340 series to me...

Hi Aaron,
Bar studs are 5/16 and do have the "S" spacer. I have tried
several Homelite (one off an Super mini) bars including the one
that came with it. The sprocket spins freely before the clutch
cover goes on. The clutch cover looks alright although you have
to push the chain brake handle a long way forward before it
engages.
I took pics but they were too large to load.
Also I seem to have picked up a problem from AS. Whenever I go
to the site I'm instantly taken to other sites trying to sell me
stuff. Even after running anti virus and malware software. And
even on a freshly downloaded copy of Chrome?
Bummer AS is one of my favourite sites.
Regards,
Lee

If you're running Chrome, disable javascript (in your settings).
Same thing if you're surfing from an android phone. If you're
running internet explorer, click 'tools', 'security' 'custom'
and then scroll through the custom list. Disable scripting/auto
scripting, click 'OK', and then click 'OK' again. THEN you
should be able to go to AS without the linkbucks BS. It's a
little clunky, but works well enough to get caught up a bit and
check PM's.
Do another malware scan, as the linkbucks thing put 8 bugs on my
computer. Others have reported the same...

Hi Aaron,
Do you happen to know how to fix Firefox. I couldn't find a
place to switch off Java. The link bucks is now affecting the
computer at work whick was free of it yesterday.

noscript for firefox. Works great and was passed onto me by
660mag Only need it for AS. I disable 99% of the time and
enable only when going to infected AS.

Sadly I'm a regular Firefox user and mine is infected. I have
modified Chrome and IE and you can get in to AS but you can't
login so you can't see most pics or respond and make entries.
Real bummer!
Lee
PS no matter how I try to fit the bar and chain, once I tighten
up the bar nuts the chain won't move. Maybe the chain brake is
faulty or mal-adjusted?

I figured how to log in with IE. The login box in the top/right
corner does nothing (with javascript disabled). However, you
can 'trick' the browser into giving you a login box that does
work. Go to a thread, and then click 'reply'. The board will
tell you that you can't post unless logged in and will give you
a login box in the center of the screen. Log in (be sure to
click 'remember me') and you'll be good to go.
