Being the son of an airplane mechanic and a 'shade tree' mechanic myself I always have the desire to know how my tools WORK and what's inside that makes them do what they do.
I was surprised when I got my new saw home and set up that NO full exploded view diagram of the inner machine and a parts list was not included.
Thanks to Sheila I was referred to <ereplacementparts.com> where I was able to download the full exploded diagrams, parts list and all pricing and availability information.
I imagine that most of you 788 owners already knew this but I am putting this information here for those 'newbies' who have just acquired their saws and for those contemplating the eventual purchase of the 788.
Now when you talk about that "L" shaped rod n the tension system I at least know where to look and can see what it does!
