Stihl MS250 Handle Bar Issue?

[SKIN052]

The mount on the left side of the saw pops out. It is hard to explain and I will try and get pics up but was wondering if anyone knows anything about this? It sits in a rubber mount with a torques screw holing it in but the whole mount slips out of the hole?

Needs a new mount, nothing serious. A C

the rubber buffer has come loose of the metal mounting base. It'll need replaced, not a bad job at all.

As stated, very easy job.

Thanks guys. It seems the whole thing just slides out of the housing. So what exactly do i need to buy? The rubber portion?

The rubber piece should be fused to the plastic mount. The two parts have seperated, you will have to remove the plastic part from the saw. Does this look like the part you need?

I'm having the same trouble with my MS250. Is this a common problem?

It could very well be, that part looks kinda cheesy with that being a plastic mounting cup. Not sure.

The plug was not the issue the plastic cap was gone. The cap fit inside the plastic mount and spreads the rubber open keeping it in place. When I was tapping it in, I cracked it a bit but it still worked. Unfortunately I noticed the handlebar was cracked on the bottom. I think I can splice in a piece of aluminum or something to fix it.
