I am trying to find a parts list layout for a z830sb homelite. I purchased a replacement head but there seems to be an adapter missing at the base of the angle head.

within the bump head (once opened) you will see add arrows, this indicates which direction you add the line, usually opposite to each other, you will have line hold points (4) within the cup. once you have fulled the cup head with line (octupus needed), thread each line through feeder holes and push line into housing making sure you pull line out through the feeder at same time as pushing into head. pold the hell out of everthing or it will go haywire. Vrey difficult, but after about 300 tries at it, you will still go to the dealer to do it. If you can make any heads or tales of my solution..good luck but its how you do it. Regards Russ

I have seen exactly what you mean. The part is listed as obsolete and has been superceded by another part # UP06970 that is also out of stock NLA (no longer available). But somebody, somewhere on the net has one of these. These guys list it, but it is out of stock...at least it is not listed as no longer available. Your part is the gearhead at the top of this page. You can contact these guys for more information and when it might become available to you if they order you one. I know just how frustrating this is. Anyway, these guys list your part with the new part number.

40:1 for chain saws.

You use www.homelite.com part lookup for the HU80709. Homelite site doesn't list the a version but parts should be the same. www.jackssmallengine.com is excellent source for parts and is very reasonable on the parts.

You don't have to purchase a new one. Parts for it are available. This online parts house is good. If you are saying you need the plastic bubble for the carburetor, it is here.

There are 3 models listed. They are listed in the 4th section of misc. parts and are items 9,10, and 11.
All the other parts for your machine are listed here too:

Start from the bottom and work your way up. This is not an easy repair. You have to almost completely dissassemble the entire blower to replace the cord. You will need a T20 and T25 torx tool, a 9/16' wrench or socket, 40" of #3.5 rope and about an hour. A repair shop will typically charge $20 to $40 in labor for this repair.

You can find a typical fuel system and a couple of suggestions here:

The IPL (exploded parts list) for your saw is the only detail for fuel line routing and it is sketchy at best; components are listed but may be on different illustrations.
https://www.gardnerinc.com/recons/disclaimer-lg.php - Agree; Choose “Product Line”; “Select OEM” & “Select Catalog” both to “Homelite Consumer Products”. A drop down list appears; self explanatory from here.
The numbers Homelite & Ryobi use do not match the numbers everyone posts. A careful inspection of your saw should find something that matches.

Hose can be purchased at any chainsaw outlet, Inquire about how much hose they recommend. I have not found a good hose stretcher and I have been looking. Good luck with your project. Any additional questions you may have can be asked below. I hope you found this most helpful.

Detail is usually lacking but it is the only illustration I have found. Good Luck

The clutch interior must be turned the same direction as the engine to loosen (reverse threads), tapping with a screwdriver and hammer usually does the trick. When you install the new clutch make sure you apply an anti seizing compound to the threads.
