much loved chainsaw

[rugbydave]

Hi I run stihl chainsaws mostly brand new however I have a real soft spot for an old 051 I have brought back yo life over the last month or so. Does anyone know if there is a chain break kit available for this model. I would love to use it every now and then.

Many thanks
Dave

Sorry I'm no help with your question, but welcome to the site!

Doubt anyone makes a chain brake for a 40 year old saw. But on the bright side, yours is gonna be heavier than my father-in-law's 041, and his seems hard enough to make kick back! ;-)

Love that generation of saws, by the way. Glad to hear you're keeping it alive!
