Poulan Transmission, Brake & Clutch

A chainsaw clutch drum works by driving the chain along with the gear. The gear and clutch drum are engaged by the clutch when the engine’s speed picks up. The chainsaw clutch drum likely needs replacement when the chain isn’t turning. This repair is easy to complete and can be accomplished with minimal tools. The hardest part of this repair might be the removal of the old chainsaw clutch drum in cases where they are misshaped or warped from damage from continual friction. Many will work well past the point when they should be replaced, so it is essential to monitor your chainsaw parts for noticeable signs of disrepair or inefficiency. This chainsaw clutch drum is compatible with Craftsman and Poulan chainsaws. It is a high-quality genuine OEM clutch consisting of durable metal.

The clutch connects to the crankshaft of the chainsaw engine. The crankshaft turns the up and down motion of the pistols into a rotation, which turns the drum and makes the chain go around. As the inner drum of the clutch starts to wear out, it puts more and more pressure on the springs, causing them to break. So, without a properly functioning clutch, the engine will run, but the blade will not turn. Replace the chainsaw clutch assembly using our genuine OEM part sourced directly from the manufacturer. A socket wrench and a screwdriver will be needed. Start by removing the chain brake cover to gain access to the clutch. Remove the chain and bar and then bind the piston in place. From there, use a screwdriver to remove and replace the clutch. This part is compatible with Poulan or Craftsman brand products. Sold individually.
