Partner 5000 and 5000 Plus

[Jeff Lary]

Can someone tell me how and where to buy a service / repair manual? for the 5000 series saw.I have seen them on diffrent sites but they include a lot of other saws ,and I wonder how much time is devoted to the saw I am interested in if they have to share a book with all the other brands. I saw on a diffrent forum that this guy was trying to help someone with a picture from his manual. Well I have 3 - 5000's and a manual like the one he was showing may be helpfull at times. So if anyone can help me find one that would be great. Have a Merry Christmas.

I have a hard copy. Just get one for the 5000 / 500 and you will be covered. I had a extra one but gave it away already.


That was probably me. I take pics of my manual and post for guys.

Well I got my Partner 5000 / 500 service manual my nephew bought it for me from e-bay.
In the mean time I have accidently run over my 5000 :ashamed:I destroyed the "D" handel ,chain brake cover and recoil cover.I had enough spare parts to rebuild most of it but I will need a chain brake cover.Does anyone have a chain brake cover they would part with? Actuall I would take 2 if I could get them/ you never know.
I have searched and joined 2 other sites but still no luck finding parts.I have joined Chainsaw repair, and Arborist site.I will begin looking at old saw shops in my area in Central Maine to see if any are lying about.If anyone knows a good place to look let me know and I will check it out.Thanks Jeff

I havent seen anything posted at ChainsawRepair looking for parts in wanted area. I have NOS covers with and without brake. Know 4-5 others that have used parts too. Now getting us to sale might be another thing.

Well I have not posted your right but I either dont understand the way that site works or there is not much activity there? For instance I posted there a question about my saws and got quite a few responces but since then the Partner forum has not had any activity so I really did not know how many new posts there are there? I can do that though and will.

To see new post just click this at top Show unread posts since last visit.
or this at bottom View the most recent posts on the forum. All pretty simple.

Not much posting in Partner sub forum area because only us older people know of them.

Ok thanks that will help,and who you calling old?:laughing::laughing::laughing:

Friends an Learning is what this site is about

Re: Partner 5000 or 500 chain brake/ side cover
ｫ Reply #3 on: Today at 04:47:30 pm ｻQuoteThats the best way is to buy parts saws for parts. Lot cheaper in long run.

To free up a bad crank bearing. I would split case remove both bearings. Put 2 new bearings in $10 total and 2 new seals and reused crank gasket if you can keep from ripping it. Why chance ruining the saw totally with a iffy $5 crank bearing. Report to moderator Logged
Hope we all can learn from each other. Thanks for sharing your info and time with us.

Re: Partner 5000 or 500 chain brake/ side cover
ｫ Reply #4 on: Today at 05:30:46 pm ｻQuoteModifyRemoveWell there is a reason I asked that.
First off I did just a moment ago buy a Partner 500 fo $40.00 it has a broken control handel but I have spare pats.I may have listed the saws that I was about to look at in the wrong order.
Now as for the crank bering:
I am prettty handy but not very confidant.I have changed jugs and Pistons, clutchs and stuff but I have NEVER been inside a split case,,, the fact is I have never opened a case. I was reading in my new service manual about spliting the case.It seems that to remove the flywheel you need some special tool.We used to use flywheel pullers in High School but I do not even have one of those .Also I am not sure if I need to compleatly remove the crank from the saw if so is'nt there somthing on the opposite side as well? a oil pump gear sounds about right ? But I am not sure. Then it said the case must be heated up to accept the new seals? Not to sound like a nooby but This kind of scares me some. I have done a lot more thn some people but I am not on par with you guys either. So that is why I was wondering if I could free up the crank bering.I agree withassement though, that I wanted to install new bering and seals as well she would be almost as good as new then. I wonder if there is somebody on this site close to me in Maine that would stand over me while I do that?
