Owner reviews

For informational purposes, we present to your attention several reviews left by visitors to our site.

Vladimir: Initially I purchased a Partner 352 chainsaw to dismantle wooden buildings on a purchased plot of land in the village. The drink proved to be good. At first, of course, due to inexperience, I ruined several chains on nails. But over time I got used to it, and now I work carefully. There are no comments on the operation, the impression of use is positive.

Igor: I only use the Partner 352 saw. I’ve already destroyed one, and it’s worked for more than 5 years. I bought a new one, the same one. An old saw may be useful as a spare parts donor. Everything is fine with work.

Advantages and disadvantages

When considering the advantages and disadvantages of the Partner 371 chainsaw, you need to decide which of them are the most critical. Many positive aspects can be common to all chainsaws, while the negative ones are not so important. Therefore, when choosing, you need to rely not on the ratio of “+” to “-”, but on your own needs.

Pros:

  • chromium-nickel alloy on the cylinder-piston system prevents the appearance of corrosion and rust, extends the service life;
  • easy start button - decompression valve;
  • emergency stop of the chain;
  • there is a vibration damping system;
  • the crankcase is made of magnesium alloy, due to which its strength is increased;
  • adjustable oil pump;
  • Partner branded air purification systems were installed;
  • EcoBoost system - reduces emissions and fuel consumption; increases torque;
  • SoftStart system - allows you to start Partner 371 at low temperatures;
  • a conveniently designed handle that provides a secure grip and contains the main controls;
  • Auto-choke system - controls the engine throttle;
  • convenient balance;
  • primer for pumping fuel;
  • The CCS system increases the service life of the air filter.

Minuses:

  • low quality of spare parts and assembly;
  • positioning the company as Swedish and many stores keeping silent about the fact that the chainsaw was made in China;
  • startup can be quite labor-intensive due to the poor quality of the chainsaw components;
  • strong leakage of oil for chain lubrication, positioned by service centers as a normal phenomenon;
  • the inability of the saw to cut relatively thick branches and trunks;
  • labor-intensive cleaning of the chainsaw from contaminants that accumulate during sawing;
  • the most frequently mentioned disadvantages include the low quality of the saw set;
  • lack of visual monitoring of fuel and oil levels in internal tanks.

Many who bought Partner 371 complain about the high oil consumption for the chain lubrication system. In fact, this statement is not entirely relevant, since oil consumption depends on the settings set by the owner and on the quality characteristics of the product.

You can clearly see how Partner 371 copes with logs of various thicknesses in the video, in which you can see that the chainsaw cuts thin logs quite easily, while thicker logs require some effort.

Equipment

The equipment of the Partner 371 chainsaw does not differ from its competitors and includes a standard set.

  • chainsaw;
  • tire and chain;
  • 1 year warranty;
  • tire cover;
  • combination key;
  • refill container;
  • user manual.

Sometimes the completeness differs from that declared by the manufacturer, because... some stores run promotions and can supplement it, for example, with a file for sharpening a chain.

The configuration of the Partner 371 chainsaw cannot be less than that declared by the manufacturer; when purchasing, always check the compliance according to the instructions!

Note! The websites of many stores indicate either the manufacturer - Sweden, or the homeland of the brand - the USA. They don't do assembly

The country of assembly is China, although Partner was originally a Swedish company, a subsidiary of Husqvarna.

Keyless tension system

It began to be used relatively recently, it is considered new, if not advanced. It differs from the classic nut in the following:

  • another tensioner mechanism;
  • lack of external tightening nut;
  • adjustment without additional tools.

Instead of a 13mm spanner nut, the lid has a wing nut (rotary cap) with a handle for hand tightening. It also has a nut, but it is hidden inside. Instead of an adjusting screw for a screwdriver, tensioning in this system is done using a tension wheel (adjustment handle).

Instead of a gear shaft there is a sprocket and a tension washer.

This system also has disadvantages:

  • the mechanism itself is more complex than a traditional nut;
  • installation of a cutting set causes additional problems, because makes it difficult to pair all the parts in the right order;
  • the adjustment stroke is shorter, a slightly stretched chain will still serve with the traditional tensioning system, here it will sag and become unusable.

A few words about the saw set

The chain that comes with the chainsaw deserves special attention. It was produced by the American company OREGON, a pioneer in the production of saw sets. The CS-352ES uses chain code 91VXL052XJ, a low-profile design in 3/8”-91. The main distinctive features of the headset are:

  • the design of the elements that limit the cutting depth is made in the form of a wedge, which has a positive effect on the level of recoil of the chainsaw;
  • the chain itself is designed using Vibe-Ban technology, the main purpose of which is to reduce the level of vibration that is transmitted to the handle to the operator;
  • a significant advantage is the use of a special technology for retaining lubrication in the chain (Lubriwel system). On the one hand, there is a modified type of fastening of the connecting links, and on the other, special grooves in the drive links that ensure uniform distribution of lubricant;

Oregon recommends this saw set for light chainsaws with a guide bar size of 14 inches or more.

Specifications

The technical characteristics of the device are as follows:

  • engine power 2.18 hp (1600 W);
  • volume 42 cm3;
  • tire (length) 40 cm (16 inches);
  • chain pitch 3/8 inch (9.3 mm);
  • chain links 56 pieces;
  • fuel tank 340 ml;
  • oil tank 200 ml;
  • chain tension without tools;
  • the presence of automatic lubrication of the saw set;
  • rotation speed up to 20 m/s (12000 rpm);
  • anti-vibration system;
  • noise level 109 dB;
  • weight 5.5 kg.

A distinctive feature of the Partner P842 chainsaw is the presence of a vibration damping system, lubricant distribution on the saw set and a reliable inertia brake.

Chainsaws are characterized by reduced exhaust. Powered by an engine with Eco Boss technology, which reduces fuel consumption and reduces the amount of exhaust gases. Engine ignition is electronic.

Chainsaw device Partner

Each saw is powered by a reliable 2-stroke gasoline engine equipped with a forced air supply system. The motors used by the manufacturer are distinguished by their reliability and ability to operate properly under variable and constantly high loads. A solid reserve of torque makes it possible to use saws to perform various household and industrial tasks.

To start the engine, each chainsaw is equipped with a manual starter with an easy start function. This makes it possible to easily start the tool at very low temperatures. The fuel mixture is ignited using a proprietary spark plug and electronic ignition. A durable clutch is responsible for transmitting torque from the internal combustion engine to the tire.


All parts and mechanisms of each saw are placed in a reliable plastic case. It is made of multi-layer polymers, which gives it the ability to withstand accidental impacts and falls from low heights. The manufacturer has provided free access to filters and other frequently replaced elements. This greatly simplifies the DIY repair of the Partner chainsaw.

The Partner is responsible for sawing wood in each chainsaw using a proprietary bar and chain. The saw set operates under the control of an oil pump, which automatically supplies oil as the chain moves along the bar. When the headset hits a nail or any other hard object, the inertial brake is activated, which makes the tool completely safe for the operator.

Each Partner model stands out for its ease of use. The front and rear handles of the tool are covered with high-quality rubberized material, which prevents the operator’s hands from slipping during operation. The tool's effective anti-vibration system dampens strong engine vibrations. This makes it possible to use a chainsaw both on the ground and at height without feeling tired during its operation.

What can you use ECHO CS352ES for?

The CS-352ES chainsaw is an entry-level tool in the manufacturer’s line. This means that the saw is suitable for moderate operation in small construction conditions, as well as for country work. The main tasks for which this model is suitable:

  • processing of timber during the construction of wooden structures;
  • processing of fruit trees - cutting down branches and small trunks;
  • cutting wood materials (can handle wood up to half a meter in diameter).

The result is a fairly reliable and well-assembled tool, which uses proprietary technologies of the manufacturer. The areas of application for this saw can be farms and household plots, as well as small logging operations.

The main emphasis in the design is on light weight and convenient design. This allows the tool to be used, for example, for landscaping work.

User manual

Starting to operate the Partner 352 chainsaw involves performing the following operations:

  1. Mounting the bar, tensioning the chain.
  2. Preparation of the fuel mixture. It is recommended to use Partner gasoline engine oil mixed in a ratio of 40:1 (2.5%).
  3. Refueling. You need to fill the fuel and oil tank.
  4. Start the engine. To start the engine, you first need to manually pump fuel into the carburetor. Move the switch position to the “ON” position, the throttle valve to the start position. Having securely secured the saw, pull out the starter cord 35-40 cm at a time. After a successful start, let the saw idle for a while.

Before operation, you must carefully read the operating instructions for the Partner 352. They can be found and downloaded in our instruction catalogue.

How to remove the drive sprocket from a “Partner” chainsaw?

If the chain on the “Partner” chainsaw does not spin, it is likely that the wear on the spline on the drive sprocket has reached its critical point. In addition, the sprocket is also the clutch drum in such a gasoline unit. What to do in this case? Purchase a new repair kit and replace it with a new one yourself or with the help of specialists. Information on how to remove the clutch on a Partner chainsaw is usually available in the user manual and requires the following actions:

  1. Remove the side cover;
  2. Loosen the chain and remove the bar;
  3. Clear access to the motor piston;
  4. Block its progress by manually rotating the sprocket;
  5. Using available tools, unscrew the sprocket and replace it with a working copy.

After this, it is recommended to check the serviceability of the ignition to avoid future breakdowns. The ignition installation on the “Partner” chainsaw is carried out according to the same scheme as for other chainsaws. It is advisable to always have a working spark plug in stock, replacing which is a matter of minutes. Constant diagnostics of internal operating systems, a thorough study of the operating instructions - these are the basic rules that can help with how to set the ignition on the “Partner” chainsaw.

Equipment

The standard equipment of Partner 360 includes the function of easy chain tensioning and bar installation without the use of additional tools. The side cover has a built-in mechanism with which the tire is securely attached to the body of the chainsaw. The function is convenient, because The operator does not have to carry a set of maintenance tools with him at all times.

Another useful improvement is the manual fuel pump (primer). Due to the possibility of forced pumping, starting a cold engine is significantly easier, which means the starter’s life is increased.

The primer is not only responsible for pumping fuel, but can serve as a diagnostic tool for faults. For example, if the carburetor depressurizes, the filling capacity of the primer will deteriorate, the number of air bubbles will significantly increase, this will warn of the need for repairs.

Important! Correcting air leaks in a timely manner will allow you to avoid troubles associated with exceeding the maximum speed and scuffing of the CPG. Automatic inertia brake

At the moment, this function is found in almost all modern chainsaws, and Partner 360 is no exception. The system is responsible for instantly stopping the rotation of the chain at the moment the chainsaw rebounds

Automatic inertia brake. At the moment, this function is found in almost all modern chainsaws, and Partner 360 is no exception. The system is responsible for instantly stopping the rotation of the chain at the moment the chainsaw rebounds.

This function should not be underestimated, because... it can prevent injury or even save the life of the operator.

A starter with an additional spring that reduces engine resistance at start-up. The function is not mandatory, though. The compression on the Partner P360S is not too high, but it adds comfort and allows you to start the engine with 60% less effort.

Also, the Partner 360 chainsaw uses an anti-vibration system consisting of metal spring shock absorbers and an air pre-cleaning system to cool the engine. This system reduces the harmful impact of the tool on the operator’s hands, which adds comfort.

Carburetor adjustment

Before adjusting the carburetor, the chainsaw should be warmed up for a minute. The tool must be in full working order, because any deviation may prevent proper operation and adjustment.

The carburetor is adjusted as follows. There are 3 adjusting screws on the saw carburetor:

  1. T – idle speed adjustment;
  2. L – low speed adjustment;
  3. H – high speed adjustment;

First of all, all three screws are screwed in completely. Immediately after tightening, “L” is unscrewed by 2 turns, “H” by 1.5. These are average values; they can be adjusted in the future. After unscrewing the screws, the carburetor is installed in place and the saw starts.

With the chainsaw running, the “T” screw is gradually unscrewed. You need to release until the chain stops moving. That is, you should get a static chain on a working saw. If you feel that there is not enough traction and the tool may stall, you can add 0.25 turns to the screws.

This completes the carburetor adjustment.

Note! Since adjustment requires turning the screws, it is worth deciding that one turn = 360°

The setup process within the article is described very briefly; if something is not clear to you, we recommend reading the manual for adjusting the carburetor on a Partner 350 chainsaw. The carburetors for the 350 and 371 models are the same, so the setup procedure will be identical. The article covers all the necessary aspects:

  • device and principle of operation;
  • necessary tool;
  • reasons and process of adjustment;
  • Do-it-yourself repair issues.

Chainsaw device Partner

Partner brand chainsaws have become very popular due to the use of high-quality components by their manufacturer and the balance of the factory assembly itself. Each gas-powered tool of this brand is based on a 2-stroke internal combustion engine with 1 working cylinder, the capacity of which depends on the purpose and modification of the saw. Each motor has an effective anti-vibration system and forced air cooling.

The fuel system of each Partner saw consists of a chrome-plated carburetor, fuel circulation pipes, and a durable foam filter developed using proprietary CCS technology.


To start Partner chainsaws, each of them includes a manual starter, consisting of a reinforced spring, a ventilated coil and a cable, at the end of which there is a plastic handle. To allow a smooth start of the internal combustion engine, the design of each model is supplemented with a pump responsible for pre-pumping fuel into the cylinder.

The ignition system of each Partner model is electronic. Its design includes a magneto with a primary and secondary electrical winding, as well as a spark plug located in the upper part of the body under a rubberized plug.

The internal operating mechanisms of each Partner saw are housed in impact-resistant housings. They are separate - this way the operator has the opportunity to repair a broken mechanism of a power tool without removing the remaining plates of the body.

Chainsaw Partner 350 – malfunctions and their elimination

Most owners of this Partner model encounter problems that can be considered typical for this configuration of the tool. To be able to eliminate them, you should understand the causes of breakdowns and study the most effective methods of repairing them.

Chainsaw Partner 350 starts and stalls - how to solve the problem?

The most common cause of this breakdown is a clogged air filter. Due to dust, debris and insects, it is not able to pass the amount of air that is necessary for the normal operation of the Partner 350 chainsaw. In this case, you will need to remove the filter and wash it with clean gasoline. If this does not help, then the filter element should be replaced completely.

Another common cause is a faulty spark plug. To check, you will need to unscrew the part and inspect it. If there are small light spots on the spark plug, it means the part is working properly. However, if the ceramic walls of the candle are covered with a thick layer of soot and oil, then it needs to be cleaned. To do this, you need to heat the candle with a lighter and carefully scrape off the carbon deposits. If this does not help, the spark plug will need to be replaced.

What to do if the Partner 350 chainsaw does not start?

In this case, you need to carefully check the ignition system of the tool. Most often, the saw will not start if the gap between the magneto and the ignition coil is broken. In this case, you will need to disassemble the saw and adjust the distance between these parts. If you don’t have a sample on hand, you can use a pocket calendar or a paper business card instead.

Also, the Partner 350 chainsaw may not start due to a clogged fuel filter. If a lot of debris has accumulated in it, then it will not allow the amount of fuel the engine needs to pass through. In this case, the filter will need to be replaced.

The chain on the Partner 350 chainsaw is not lubricated - troubleshooting

The main reason for this malfunction is a loss of tightness or a break in the hose through which oil circulates for the chainsaw chain. In this case, you need to remove the top and side shields of the chainsaw body, and also inspect them for stains. To solve the problem you need to replace the worn hose. When installing, sealant will need to be applied where it is attached to the pump.

If the cause of the breakdown does not lie in the hose, then you need to inspect the oil pump. It may be clogged or broken. If you cannot wash the part, then it is best to replace it with a new one.

Filling a spark plug on a Partner 350 chainsaw - troubleshooting

Often the spark plug on a chainsaw begins to flood due to prolonged use of an incorrectly prepared fuel mixture. If you mix a large amount of oil in gasoline, this will cause the fuel pump to malfunction. Oil will flow from it into the housing, including onto the spark plug of the chainsaw.

Another common problem is a broken fuel pump. To check its operation, you should remove the tool body and start the engine. Next you need to press the gas trigger several times. If oil flows out of the pump, it means it is faulty.

As a rule, chainsaw fuel pumps cannot be repaired. It's best to replace it completely. To extend the life of the new pump, in the future you need to use only high-quality fuel and motor oil to refuel the Partner 350 chainsaw.

When working in the country or in the countryside, you often need a saw. Sometimes this work can be done with a hand hacksaw, but often a more serious tool is needed. Today the choice is very large. A large assortment of saws, both hand and chainsaws, and electric chain saws. It is very difficult to make the right choice, given the ratio - price and quality. One of the best solutions are chainsaws.

Very reliable, convenient and easy to use. “Partner” produces various chainsaws (340s, 350,351, etc.), with different engine power and tire lengths. An excellent choice would be Partner 350. For reliable and durable operation of the cutting tool, it is necessary to operate it correctly.

Chainsaws Partner – troubleshooting and troubleshooting

Like other household equipment equipped with an engine, Partner brand chainsaws require repairs from time to time. This may be due to improper operation of the saw, or to simple wear and tear of spare parts. Be that as it may, the chainsaw needs to be repaired, and it is quite possible to do it yourself.

How to refuel a Partner chainsaw?

As the instructions indicate, to refuel the Partner chainsaw you should use gasoline of at least AI-92 grade. It must be mixed with oil designed for 2-stroke engines.

The optimal ratio of gasoline and oil for a Partner chainsaw is 50:1, that is, 20 ml of engine oil should be diluted in 1 liter of gasoline.

How to set the ignition on a Partner chainsaw?

If you cannot understand why the Partner chainsaw does not start, then first check the ignition system of your tool. Checking and adjusting the gap looks like this:

  • First of all, remove the cover to which the starter is attached. To do this, we recommend using a T27 hex bit, tools included with the chainsaw, and additional attachments;
  • Carefully inspect the ignition coil, flywheel with magnets and, especially, the gap between these parts. To do this, use a specially designed gasket;
  • Installing the ignition on the Partner chainsaw is done by turning the screws, which brings the coil and flywheel closer to each other.

After completing the above steps, install the starter in place, and start the Partner chainsaw. If the saw starts up, you can screw in the screws securing the cover all the way and continue working.

How to remove the clutch on a Partner chainsaw?

Repairing the tool clutch is often required in cases where the Partner chainsaw starts and stalls when you press the gas. However, not all novice gardeners know how to remove the drive sprocket from a Partner chainsaw. You can do this in this order:

  1. First turn the lever and remove the saw chain brake cover;
  2. Unscrew the nuts securing the clutch system using the wrench from the Partner chainsaw kit;
  3. Remove the clutch from the chainsaw and completely disassemble it. If necessary, replace worn parts and clean the walls of the standard clutch elements.

At first, you will need to pull the starter rope several times before the saw starts. This is required to ensure that the installed spare parts finally fit into their intended places.

How to replace the oil pump on a Partner chainsaw?

If you find that the chain on your Partner chainsaw does not spin, then the cause of this problem most likely lies in the wear or breakdown of a separate pump designed to pump lubricant to the chain. The design of the oil pump includes 2 elements - a storage chamber and a working part. Repairing the pump involves disassembling the mechanism, but it is not recommended to take any actions with its working part. The next steps are as follows:

  1. Carefully inspect the inlet and outlet tubes through which the lubricant passes - as a rule, all pump malfunctions are associated with them;
  2. If the channels are clogged, then all debris must be removed. simultaneously blowing them with compressed air;
  3. If cracks appear on the channels, they need to be replaced;

If, after assembling the Partner chainsaw, the lubricant again does not pass to the saw chain, then the pump will need to be completely replaced.

How to adjust the carburetor on a Partner chainsaw?

Setting up the carburetor of Partner brand chainsaws is slightly different from the procedure with chainsaws of other brands. The difference lies in the markings and meaning of the adjustment screws. For adjustment, the manufacturer equipped the Partner chainsaw with three screws - the left fuel quantity screw, the right fuel quality screw and the “T” idle speed adjustment screw. All these screws are located on the left under the top cover of the chainsaw body. Adjusting the Partner chainsaw carburetor is as follows:

  1. Remove the cover and clean the parts underneath;
  2. Unscrew both screws fully clockwise and then turn them 1/5 turn in the opposite direction;
  3. Start slowly turning the quantity screw until you hear the motor start to run at its highest possible speed. Immediately after this, turn this screw ¼ turn in the other direction. As a result, the Partner chainsaw should hold idle speed steadily;
  4. Next, use the quality screw to set the maximum speed for the Partner chainsaw.

If it works like a 4-stroke engine, then the chainsaw carburetor has been configured correctly.

Types of plucking attachments

Drill attachments for plucking poultry are divided into two main types. These are nozzles with finger sizes up to 5 cm and from 9 cm. For plucking small poultry, nozzles with finger sizes of 5 cm are used. If you need to remove feathers from bird species such as geese or turkeys, then they will need devices with fingers no smaller than 9 cm


Types of kicking fingers

You can use not only attachments for plucking poultry, but also special machines. These machines are barrel-shaped with the punching pins located inside. The device is driven by an electric motor, and the closed walls of the product eliminate the possibility of scattering feathers throughout the workplace.

This is interesting! In the process of plucking carcasses with drill attachments, a drawback is observed such as the spread of feathers over the entire circumference. To eliminate such a negative effect, it is recommended to carry out work in a closed room.


Feather pickers or stationary poultry pluckers

The production produces pluckers, both stationary and attachments. The cost of stationary ones, called feather removal machines, is much more expensive, so it makes sense to buy them if you have to process several dozen carcasses every day.
