260 chain running on.......

[Baldbloke]

Thought there was something up with the brake band or a needle roller had collapsed. And before anyone suggests I’d replaced the C clip with a bodge[emoji3]

Seriously? It's a wonder it runs at all !

[Conor Wright]

Standard farmer spec saw there!

[Khriss]

Glad chain catcher in place ! K

What is the fence wire actually doing there ? I can see the clip under it

[Stubby]

Just being nuisance  at a wild guess ..... 

[Wedgebanger]

Idle to high ?, 

stretched or a Broken clutch spring/s ?

Or a fracture on the clutch ? 

 

Even the wire bodge may just have something to do with it..?

Oops....

 

Good inspection of chain required after that or is chain obviously fubarred?

 

Was the "chain running on" the first sign of a problem ?  No cutting issues up to then, no strange noises .....?... ???

Giving the clutch a helping hand. ...

Is it running on or simply trying to run away ?
