You can get a parts list diagram (IPL) from Echo USA
Here's a link

http://echoinc.arinet.com/scripts/EmpartISAPI.dll?MF

Your operator's manual at this link

http://www.echo-usa.com/Support-Help/Technical-Documents.aspx?s=cs280e&c=en-us

The saw has an inboard clutch. Pull the clutch drum off and grease the bearing. Check for excessive play in the bearing. Sometimes they disintegrate.

The manual for the 280e and ep says initial carb settings are,

Low  7/8 to 1-1/8 turn out

High  3/4 to 1 turn out



Thanks for this info Tim you saved here. Just used it to help a owner out today.
