Assembly issues
1 of 2 found this helpful Hi,
This is a review of the Neilson Gasoline Chainsaw CT3795 Dated 14/02/18
If like me you have never before assembled a chainsaw, or indeed even used one, then hopefully, this review will help you to decide whether self-assembly is for you.
This was undoubtedly a good price I paid just £69-00, however there were some issues that need to be understood before buying.
The manual was written in so called “Chinglish” but was not the worst I’ve had to deal with, but the all-important diagrams that accompany the instructions are very small, about 34mm x 25mm typically, and because they had been compressed to this size were blurred and difficult to make sense of.
Now for the really important bit, the assembly. On the face of it, not to difficult. However I must at this point, declare that I have a slight advantage here as I am a retired R&D project engineer, and have good access to a range tools. The first instruction was to fit the “Bump spike” I could not find an image, but found what looked like the flat black spanner you get with new bike, and it turned out to be the “Bump spike” then spotted 2 tapped holes that matched the pitch of the “Bump spike” and screwed it to them. Fingers crossed. Next job is to fit the chain guide, I wanted to use the smaller 12” chain, so selected the 12” chain guide. After some time I realised it was not going to fit, despite several attempts. I contacted the supplier, who said he had been told about this problem by other people, and said that I could drill a large hole myself, and it would not affect the warranty. (I hope I never have to put that to the test) or I could return it. I elected to do the drilling and filing myself, as this was not a problem for me. As I had all the equipment required, leather gloves, bench vice, power drill, drill bit, round file and torque wrench. Once done, it fitted well, and continued to complete assembly.
The heavy duty leather gloves are undoubtedly essential when handling the chain, but I took mine off, to turn the unit over and find the chain oil control valve, and cut my finger on the extremely sharp edge of the plastic moulding at the bottom of the unit. Some engineer you might say, anyway hope this was helpful and not TOO long.
