770 And 775 Questions

[Homelite775]

Just scooped up a nasty 775D and a sexy 770D. I can't really see any difference between the two.

Hoping to find good 30+ inch bars and chains for them, and crank seals among other things. Not sure where I can get these besides EBay. Suggestions?

Try chainsawlady and onlyhomelites here on this forum. Both have lots of parts, IPLs, and information. Otherwise, ebay may help.

Welcome to HOH! How about some pictures of your saws?

An IPL for the 770D can be found here:www.leonschainsawpartsandrepair.com/uploads/3/9/7/9/39792537/homelite_770d_chainsaw_ipl_23641_may_1962_2.pdflink

The 775D is one of the few I don' have an IPL for yet.

Been tinkering with my 707D literature. From what I can tell there is precious little change.
707 1961 1 year only, 770 next 3 years, 775 next 4 years ended in 1967.
My 61 had a governor later did not have it. It seems some had homelite ball starters and some were fairbanks starters.
