It appears that there is something wrong with my anti vibration mounts. there might be one missing on the bottom as I see a steel pin but nothing on it.  The saw seems to flex too much as I am cutting. 
What is there to replace the rubber mounts?  Do the plugs just pry out with a screwdriver?  thanks for any help, I have been running it hard lately and need to keep at it.

I've looked at that a few times but can't figure out what is going on...The only thing I don't see is #9 and 10, the retaining cable and clip...not sure where it goes and the schematic is not very helpful .

Feel the rubber buffers - soft or gooey makes a loose, sloppy connection. Is spring stretched and weak?
The plugs just pry out, revealing the rubber buffers. The spring should have a screw.

I stopped at the dealer and there was 1 plastic plug missing in the rubber so they replaced it....eventually I will replace the spring, rubbers and plugs. Any idea where the retainer and clip attach to?   thanks.

I dunno about retaining cable and clip. The dealer should know.
