Trying to find out the crankshaft end float spec for my 360W ( UT 10501A , HM1430219 ) . I reviewed the 5th revision Service Manual and it doesn't appear to
cover end float . The IPL shows roller bearings on both ends of the crankshaft and no obvious thrust bearing to control end float . This unit has
about 0.020" to 0.022" end float with a "clunk" when you push back and forth on the crank . It seems to cut just fine .

Maybe I didn't describe the "float" well enough . It is like when you pull and push the clutch drum , there is some in and out play .
The crankshaft has similar end float of about 0.020" . Like I said , I see no obvious thrust bearing . Most other saws have a ball bearing
to control the end float in addition to roller or needle bearings on the other end of the cranks . Just wondering if this is normal for
this series saws ?

I don't recall ever seeing a spec but .020 doesn't sound unreasonable. It's not a tight tolerance deal. I'll try to remember to pick up a few of mine tomorrow and see how they check out.

That sounds like normal clearance between the balls and the outer race. .02" is pretty slight.
