Hi all,
I have two 362's presenting the same issue. First noticed that when the chain brake is engaged, the clutch drum appears to pop up on the right side aka it is being forced to the right as opposed to sitting properly in the center. After removing the brake band, nothing appears to be wrong with the part. However, the "guide lugs" (see attached diagram for this bizarre term) which keep the brake band in place have sheared off on the right side, allowing for the band to pop up and out of place when the chain brake is engaged.
These "lugs" appear to be part of the saw's housing aka not a replaceable part. Has anyone seen this happen before and did you find out why? Are my two saws shot from this small issue?
