    044 Chainbrake issue...

    he TT Well it was half a basket case I guess... Top end was damaged supposed bad gas and partially disassembled. All brake parts were original to saw, but maybe the brake not disengaging contributed to the saw meeting its demise. I know have it working with a little bit of tweaking to the...

    if you could measure the slot in the handle the linkage goes in maybe that is warn, but it does not look to be. Anyone know the part number for the brake handle?

    044 Chainbrake issue...

    Maybe I should explain better... chain brake on (chain brake handle forward) if I pull back to try to take brake off it will not disengage, brake handle hits handle bar before it reaches the point to disengage. When I place something under where the yellow arrow is it gives it enough to...

    To get it to engage I placed a piece of broken piston ring where the yellow arrow is pointing.

    044 Chainbrake issue...

    The brake band was still in the saw, I guess it could be the wrong one... It is a half wrap bar. I placed piece of old ring in the slot of where the linkage sits in handle and it engages fine so I am guessing its either wrong brake handle or just warn out... Thoughts?

    044 Chainbrake issue...

    So just finishing an older 044 basket case, saw is all together and sounds great, but I am having an issue with the chain brake. It seems there is not enough travel pulling the chain brake back. It hits the handle before the linkage releases the chain brake. Took it apart a couple times to...
