@Hodge I may have it mixed up with a Bunnings chainsaw,
the drive spocket was lubed via a small tube of grease into
centre of the shaft, we pilled apart every brand of chainsaw known to man.
loved it.
Im a big believer in being able to pull things apart to see how they work
helps heaps out in the boondocks. lol
04 ST 3lt auto, not enough Mods to keep me happy, but getting there

Yeah the "C" can refer to quick chain tensioner on some saws but this one refers to captive bar nuts which aren't such a bad idea. Yeah don't know any pro saws that have the crappy quick tensioner pretty sure they don't. Have a 241 at work, it's crazy light and does scream is a good little saw . .

I think the 'c' is the turn wheel adjuster isn't it? He has a 241C

Ah Ha, gotcha, didn't see this post until I replied to Winnie. This would be my upgrade saw from the 231 for sure.

They possibly could be charging off an inverter thingy from solar on their rigs, not 100% sure yet!
Never thought I'd use chainsaw and DC volts in the same sentence good Marko !!
At work we use the Milwaukee 18V with a 16" bar versions and they have impressed me immensely ! Cut's up 3 x 40 foot poles into 2 foot firewood sections with a single 12AH battery and still has juice to spare... We charge ours off 24V trucks / inverters.
They are freakin' expensive though, and one wonders if it's really worth while when for extra few hungiesss you can get a nice Stihl of some kind.

Forgot to mention, @matfew (industrial sparky) has worked out a way to jump start diesel 6 pot patrols off Milwaukee batteries in a spot of bother.
