Husqvarna K960 concrete saw.
« on: October 30, 2015, 10:31:21 pm »
Well the Husky K960 with the bad crank bearing was given up for scrap.  The customer decided it was not worth rebuilding and bought a new one.    So I asked if I could have it and so it is now mine.   I will tear it down and if the rod bearings look good I will rebuild it.   Not a bad freeby.   I will to take a few pics.

Is that crank common to any other saw motors?

That I do not know.  I have replaced the piston and cylinder on these before but have never split the case on one.  This should be a good project and very educational for me since I work on these things all the time.

There have been times I wish I had picked up the newer stihl 460 version I was offered with bad topend. I dont need one but have ran into a time or 2 since I wish I had had one.

That is a lot cheaper than I thought it would be.  If I can rebuild this saw for less then 300.00 dollars it would be worth it.

I took a few more pictures of the K960.  I just wanted to show the outside view of the cylinder.

Those runners coming from around the exhaust port and then to the sides of the cylinder are the transfer ports.   Just thought you guys might be interested in seeing that.
When I take the cylinder off I will take some more pics of it to show them better.

Click on the images to enlarge.
