Two very neat saws for sure! I'm amazed at how long Homelite produced saws like that.

Are the manuals available here for both of these? I am sure I will need to see them once I get the saws. Neither has been run in quite a while. I sure hope the carb is not like on the Model 17. Those are a pain....

IPL's and repair manuals can be found on Leon's site: www.leonschainsawpartsandrepair.com/parts-diagrams.htmlThe IPL's will come up with that link, there are four red tabs just down the page a little. The manuals are on the "Homelite Service Memos and Info" tab, way down at the bottom of the page. |

I had a Super Wizz 77 a friend gave me, it fired on a prime. I was working on it in my front yard, stuck it under a tarp behind the wood pile. Some low life found it and decided he needed it. Two weeks later my neighbors grand son got busted for smoking dope at school. Wonder where a 14 year old with no job got the money to buy dope?

A bow saw was on my list as well, and when my friends wife asked me how I was going to get "them" I answered back in astonishment, and said them meaning what. She said she had found 2 of his saws, and they were mine if I wanted them. I had no idea he had 2 bow saws.When I saw how clean they were I was blown away. So maybe next week they will be shipped to me. Are there any good ways to ship these beast that you guys have found? UPS, Fedex, or just truck freight?I would asume they will have to go one to a box or they would be too heavy.

UPS & USPS will accept packages that weigh up to 70 #.If you can fit those 2 saws in one box & they weigh 70# or less,then they can be shipped together.Last fall I bought 2 saws from a guy over on AS & they were shipped in one box.They weren't "little" saws by any means - 2 old Macs.If either you or your friend's wife would prefer to ship seperately,that's your choice.The 2 Macs cost about $50 to ship.

That is a great price for 2 saws. I was thinking about 50 bucks a box for 2 boxes. Maybe you get some sort of break for just one box. I would be easier with just one box.

Steve There's no break on price for shipping with only one box,it all gets shipped according to weight & postal code starting point & destination.My saws came from 60 mi.outside of Chicago to Buffalo,N.Y.area.Prices will vary accordingly.
