Hello all,
I am troubleshooting a Stihl HT131. It works fine when the pole is retracted however when you extend it out all the way the chain does not spin. I took apart the shaft and couldn't see anything obvious. The star ends of the shaft seem fine as well as the bearings. The female ends of the engine and head seem ok also. There is not much more to the shaft from what I could see. It seems the shaft is coming out of the head or the engine but I'm not sure why. Any thoughts?
