By: peteb Date: January 7, 2016, 12:17 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Good morning all, This is my first post, so I apologize if this is not the correct place to ask my question. I recently received a free Pioneer Partner 500 saw that was thrown in with a 1987 Cub Cadet 1812 mower I recently purchased. It didn't run at first but after a good carb cleaning and new plug the thing fired right up and runs like a champ! It seems there were two versions manufactured and some parts vary based on what little information I'm finding. One was made in 1983 and the other in 1990? The tag reads as follows: Partner 500 Serial number: 5442468 Electrolux Motor AB SWEDEN Man, I sure love this saw as it starts, runs and cuts great. The only parts I had to replace was the trigger lock, pull start handle and cord. I thought it was the 1983 model, but the start handle I bought based on manufacture part number is squared at the bottom instead of round like the one that was originally on it and retracted into the hole. Other than that everything is in great shape. Just trying to get a little more information so that I purchase the right parts when needed. Thanks in advance!

By: peteb Date: January 7, 2016, 3:43 pm --------------------------------------------------------- Yep, thats my saw! What was confusing is the attached 1990 ipl has some different part numbers than the 1983 ipl thats too large to attach. Mine does NOT say formula on the cover, so its got to be the one in the link you sent. Thanks!
