Chainsaw Repair

When I got the 038 Mag from  Rocky in  Fla it had all the av mounts torn out from rough handling plus the boot .How they ever kept from burning up that saw I'll never know .It was that way when Rocky got it .

Since I rebuilt and souped it up I've managed to tear out the top av mount twice plus two boots .It wasn't from rough housing it more from flexing under heavy load and bearing down on it .It has a lot more power under load than in stock form .I've since let up on it in a heavy cut .Slow learner .
