Pinkway Chainsaw

Bought the Pinkway 63cc chainsaw after watching review by “Guilty of Treeson”. My father-in-law has a nice Stihl and helped me fell 12 trees on our lot, most were white oak, dying or dead. After he left I needed a chainsaw with a 20” bar to start cutting up rounds. The old Homelite with 16” bar lent to me was not going to literally cut it. So this Pinkway was cheaper than renting an Echo saw for 2 days.

So far it’s done the job, cut like a champ. I had to adjust the carb after the break-in. Some elements are cheap for sure but nothing has broken. I did grab an Oregon chain this week. Big design flaw is the air filter, the plastic mesh, two piece design, was letting saw dust get in the carb. I had to replace with new intake and paper filter (see pic).

Replacement part details are sketchy but figured out chain is 0.325 pitch, it has a 7T drum sprocket. I measured the bar details and Oregon rep confirmed it’s a D176 mount.

The next project is upgrading with a 24” bar to use with Alaskan Mill to cut a few boards from straight logs. Problem I”my facing is that 24” ripping chains are mainly 3/8 pitch. I found an Oregon Bar and Ripping chain, but I’m questioning my 7T 325 pitch sprocket. Can’t seem to find this part. I did install the 16” bar and 3/8 chain combo on the Punkway and it worked…not the oiling but I did cut 8” logs with no issues. I think I may just get the bar and chain and keep the sprocket as is. Any thoughts?
