Take the side cover off every month and check for wobble on the clutch drum bearing. If you are just toooooo lazy to do this then if the saw starts stalling with the chain brake on, do the check then but it may be too late to save the oiler worm arm that usually is taken out with the common wobbly drum bearing issue.

 

It is just one of those things - every six months or so, just needs sorting!

Don't forget to get a lorry load of clutch needle roller bearings .

 

You think that's bad? My 550 done 3 and a half years til some scum pinched it. It kept wearing out chains, it was costing me a fortune. I asked my dealer why I went through so many, and he found what the problem was. It was called work :biggrin:

I know Stubby it's terrible. If I'd bought another make of saw I could of had the odd day off whilst waiting for parts such as roller bearings. But nope the thing wouldn't break. I never buy one again :biggrin:
