Craftsman Hedge Trimmer Transmission, Brake & Clutch

This is a replacement chain brake that is designed as an identical part for select chainsaws. The chain brake is a safety component that covers the bar connection and helps to prevent injuries due to broken or loose chains. This piece is exposed to a lot of potential impact damage and debris, which can affect how well it works. The cover can become cracked or otherwise damaged. Without the chain brake cover, the saw will be unsafe to operate. In some cases, models may not operate at all until the chain brake is replaced. This genuine part will provide an exact fit for compatible saws. This OEM chain brake is manufactured by Poulan and compatible with more than 60 chainsaws from Poulan and Husqvarna. The chain brake is a high-quality part that is made of durable metal and plastic and it is sold as an individual piece. The hardware to install this part is sold separately. It is important to install the chain brake with the appropriate hardware and using the right tools so that it can be engaged to stop the chain in the event that it breaks or comes loose. Always disengage the spark plug or disconnect the power supply before performing equipment repairs.
