Description

The clutch drum assembly is an important part of the chainsaw. When the clutch has been engaged, the assembly will turn and move the chain around the bar. Without this assembly, the chain would not move, and the chainsaw would not be usable. It is important for chainsaw owners to check the performance of their clutch and clutch assembly regularly to look for signs of wear and tear or issues with the performance. Often, the clutches will continue to work past the point when they should be replaced. It is safe and wiser to replace the clutch assembly as soon as any issues are noticed. Replacement of the clutch assembly will require a set of wrenches. Start by removing the chain brake, the bar, and the chain. Remove the cover and the sparkplug. Bind the piston to remove the clutch without having it spin. Remove the clutch and add the new assembly. Seat the clutch, unbind the piston, and then secure the bar, chain, and the chain brake. Tension the chain and then test out the new clutch. This is a genuine OEM part sourced from the manufacturer. It will work with many models of chainsaws from Husqvarna, Poulan, and Craftsman.
