stihl 045av needs new piston/barrel.

[osborm]

Hi Guys, I'm a leaner to chainsaw stuff and wondered if someone could help me. I bought a 045 stihl, and the piston and barrel are stuffed so I have started to pull the motor apart, but how do the crankcases split, I have undone the 8 screws and still the cases stay together, any help would be great, cheers guys.
