Thanks Jim. Picture...thousand words... etc. I understand now. Has anyone talked to CH about setting one of these up with electronic ignition? Is the shaft taper the same as other Homelites?

BTW, I picked the NEW chainsaw up on ebay for $85. THe seller happened to be local so I bypassed shipping. Bonus - it came with a decent case and a chain (both fit my Stihl), a bottle of 2-cycle oil and a quart of bar oil. Oh. and a pair of grippy cloth work gloves. Probably $25 worth of stuff if I had to go out and buy it. Not a bad deal.
