560xp Clutch Removal

[N1ck]

Ok, when did Husky change the design of the clutch on the 560? I want to change my new saw up to 3/8 like it's now deceased predecessor but the old clutch tool no longer fits! D'oh!

Anyone know where I can get a clutch tool that fits? What do people use as a piston stop?

Cheers, Nick

This . Always works for me , Make sure decomp is out .

The clutch change is recent back end of last year. The new design gives a much longer service life.

Better springs?

Yes better springs and changes in shoe material.

Assuming I'm too much of a pussy to try the screwdriver technique on a brand new saw, does anyone know where I can get a suitable clutch tool for a 3 piece clutch that I can put on the impact driver?

Grind up an old socket .

Make your own from a big socket, just attack it with a grinder to leave three prongs stuck out.

yes sorry there is a new version of the tool you have. The dealer should be able to get you one.
