Stihl MS 280 vibration mounts
« on: December 30, 2011, 01:41:40 pm »
My son has a Stihl MS 280 with failed vibration mounts on the handle attachments.   It came apart during use, the rubbber bushings popped out.  I believe we have all the parts but not sure how it goes back together.   It appears that a small steel pin with a splined end goes through the aluminum casting and plays a part in keeping everything aligned during use.  However this pin has broken through a part of the plastic housing it bears against when cutting and appears to be the weak piece affecting the mount system.  Does anyone know of a parts diagram for this saw that would show how this is supposed to be assembled or how to put this back together permanently?   I'm hoping for a fix that we can do ourselves without spending a fortune.

Thanks,  Ed

I could do a screen capture pic of IPL for you and post it here. But I am sending you 1 of the 2 IPL's I have for the stihl 280. Let me know if this is the right one you need.
